The largest island of the Balearic archipelago, Majorca attracts more than 12 million visitors each year. Holidays in Majorca offer a diverse landscape spanning the Tramuntana Mountain range, golden sandy beaches, hidden coves, hills of olive groves and citrus trees, picturesque coastal villages, Gothic architecture and modern tourist resorts. While Majorca is undoubtedly a haven for sun-seekers and partygoers, it is also an island of rich history and stylish culture. Nowhere is this more evident than in the capital, Palma.

Overview:

Holidays in Majorca are not complete without a visit to the city of Palma, with its beautifully preserved medieval architecture, chic boutiques and sophisticated café culture. Sightseers can take a stroll round the narrow streets, relax over a coffee in the leafy squares, visit the striking 13th-century Gothic cathedral, the Palau March contemporary art museum, and the Es Baluard museum of Spanish art. For a stunning view over the city take a trip to the Castell de Bellver, located just outside Palma centre.

Holidays in Majorca often centre round popular resorts, including: Magaluf and Palma Nova, the original tourist resorts, known for their cheap package holidays and vibrant nightlife; Cala Millor, a popular family resort due to its wide, gently sloping sands; Can Picafort with its endless stretch of sand and picturesque port; and the cosmopolitan resort of Alcudia with its walled historic centre and five-mile stretch of sand. Many of the beaches offer a wealth of activities, including jet skiing, wind surfing, snorkelling, and glass-bottomed boat rides.
