With summer approaching, I would like to make you dream by presenting you some great destinations! Today we are in Palma de Mallorca!
If you live in Western Europe or North Africa, Palma de Mallorca is next door! Indeed, this city is located on the island of Majorca, one of the Balearic Islands in the south east of Spain.
1. The Royal Palace of Almudaina
The Royal Palace of the Almudaina is the royal castle of the city. It faces the cathedral of Palma (which I will present in the following top) and is still used today by the king of Spain for official ceremonies. The current castle is the result of the transformation of the Muslim alcazar whose construction began in 1281!
Expand your culture and if you are in the city, go visit this must-see place!
2. The Cathedral of Palma
If you are an architecture lover, a visit to Palma Cathedral is one of the must-do activities in Palma. This Catalan Gothic masterpiece is simply the third most important religious building in Europe for the height of its nave.
Impossible to miss, the cathedral of Palma dominates all the capital of Majorca.
3. Take a boat ride!
There is no better way to discover all the beauties of Majorca's coastline than a cruise by sailboat or catamaran.
In Mallorca, you can go on a more festive cruise at sunset in a superb atmosphere!
4. Let’s go to the beach, beach !
(Put a like if you have the ref ! )
Ah the beach, the sea, the sun! Let's talk about it since lazing around is the number 1 activity in Majorca.
And here, there is really something for everyone! You can have a great time in the lively resorts along the coast: you can choose between family beaches or more festive beaches.
Majorca also has countless coves with translucent waters and beautiful sandy beaches that are only accessible on foot.
5. Go for a walk in Serra de Tramuntana
The west coast of the island is dominated by a steep mountain range that is perfect for road trips: the Serra de Tramuntana.
The Ma-10 road, which passes through Banyabulfar, Puig Major, Deià and Fornalux, will allow you to discover exceptional views between sea and mountain.
6. Visit the caves of Drach
You will need a 50 minutes’ drive from Palma de Mallorca, but this place is worth it! In this magical place, there are 4 caves: the Black Cave, the White Cave, the Luis Salvador Cave and the French Cave.
So feel free to explore them and you'll be surprised by the secrets they hold!
