It deserves its title as one of the most beautiful calas in Mallorca. Even if you don’t plan on swimming, it is a beautiful place to walk and enjoy the landscape: turquoise water, sculpted cliffs, lush vegetation. Plus, there are hardly any buildings in sight!

The Cathedral of Majorca was constructed on one of the ancient acropolis of the city. 2023. 2. Palma Aquarium. Day 1: Valldemossa + Deia, two of the prettiest towns on the island. Alternatively, book this highly-rated tour or this one to visit Soller, Valldemossa, and Deia with a guide – they’re pricey, but not many tours include all three places. Days 2+3: Palma de Mallorca, the capital city. Palma is a city, the capital city of Mallorca, rather than a beach resort. Palma could be described as a mini version of Barcelona. Barcelona is superb and I would plan to stay there for 'many' nights. From Barcelona you have a range of contrasting beach resorts a car drive (or bus or train) away, either N or S. GgOil2.
