Chopin said, "I have found my dream Mediterranean." And he never left again. 🛫 Day 1: Palma Cathedral and Old Town 🌅 Arrive in Palma by plane from Barcelona or Madrid early morning (about 1-1.5 hours). Take a taxi straight from the airport to Palma Cathedral (La Seu), a Gothic-style ocean version, with renovations by Gaudí. The cathedral’s rose window is called the "Gothic Eye." At noon, sunlight streams through, casting colorful beams across the hall, like God descending. Next door is the Almudaina Palace, the summer residence of the Kings of Mallorca. 🍽️ At noon, dive into the Olivar Market in the old town, start with fresh oysters and sparkling wine, and share a paella for two. In the afternoon, stroll the cobblestone alleys of the old town, visit the Arab Baths—the only remaining Islamic relic—and enjoy coffee at Plaza Mayor while watching street performers. 🌃 At dusk, head to Bellver Castle, the only circular castle in Europe, perched on a hilltop. Watch the sunset over Palma Bay as the whole city is bathed in golden light. 🌊 Day 2: Northwest Coast - The Most Beautiful Driving Route 🌞 Rent a car in the morning and drive north along the Ma-10 road, one of Europe’s most beautiful coastal roads. First stop: Sóller, where a century-old wooden tram clatters from the port to the town. Valldemossa is the winter village of Chopin and George Sand; his piano remains in the monastery garden. 🍽️ For lunch, dine at C’an Costa next to Chopin’s former home—roast suckling pig and local sweet wine are must-tries. 🌊 In the afternoon, arrive at Formentor, the northwesternmost seaside town on the map. Climb the cliffs to see Sa Foradada, the "Pierced Rock." At sunset, the sun shines through the rock hole, and sailboats draw golden lines on the sea. 🚤 Day 3: Southeast Coast - Jelly Sea and Trendy Beaches 🌞 Head to Colònia de Sant Jordi in the morning, Mallorca’s most rustic seaside town. Take a boat to explore "Turkish Blue" (Caló des Moro), where the jelly-like sea is unrealistically blue. Nearby, "Witch Beach" (Cala Macarella) is surrounded by pine forests with clear water and fine sand. 🍽️ For lunch, enjoy a seafood barbecue on S’Amarador Beach (grilled squid, large shrimp, sardines), sitting on a beach mat with toes buried in the sand. 🌊 In the afternoon, visit Cala Figuera, a cliffside village. The Drach Caves (Coves del Drac) house the world’s largest underground lake, where classical concerts echo underground. Take a small boat through the caves, looking up at stalactites hanging like frozen waterfalls. ⛰️ Day 4: Tramuntana - Ridge Hiking and Farewell 🌞 Hike the Tramuntana Mountains (a World Heritage site) in the morning, starting from Escorca. The ridge trail has snowy peaks on one side and the deep blue Mediterranean on the other. Along the way, see ancient terraces, stone farmhouses, and hear the bells of grazing sheep. 🍽️ Have lunch in Fornalutx, known as Mallorca’s most beautiful village. Stone houses are covered with wisteria, and you can eat Mallorca bread with olive oil and tomato sauce under the old banyan tree in the square. 🌊 In the afternoon, visit the natural salt flats (Salines de Llevant), where salt piles look like snow mountains. At sunset, the salt ponds reflect the sky like a pink-purple magic mirror. Pack the blue, gold, and white of Mallorca into your memory and take it on the plane. ⛺ Must-Do Highlights · Palma Cathedral: Gaudí renovation + Gothic Eye rose window · Ma-10 Road: Most beautiful northwest coastal drive · Valldemossa: Chopin’s winter piano retreat · Caló des Moro: Turkish Blue jelly sea · Drach Caves: Underground lake classical concerts · Tramuntana Hiking: Snowy peaks on one side, sea on the other 🏨 Accommodation: Stay in Palma Old Town (convenient for food and drink) / Northwest Coast (stunning scenery) / Southeast Coast 🚇 Transportation: Flights to Palma from major Spanish cities (1-1.5 hours); strongly recommend renting a car to enjoy the coastal roads; boats can be rented for island beaches 🍽️ Must-Eats: Roast suckling pig, Spanish paella, fresh oysters, sweet wine, Mallorca bread 💡 Tips: Best time is May-June or September-October to avoid crowds in July-August; sunscreen + sunglasses + wide-brimmed hat are Mediterranean essentials; mountain goats cross slower than cars on mountain roads; some beaches require advance booking in July-August 🌟 In Mallorca, the Mediterranean blue is endless. Chopin found his dream, and you find yours. After Mallorca, all other seas feel just okay. Next time, come back when the apricot blossoms fill the valleys~👋

Mallorca is famous for its summer beaches, but in winter the island reveals a completely different kind of beauty. Just outside Palma de Mallorca, the mountains of the Serra de Tramuntana offer quiet villages, dramatic landscapes, and a peaceful atmosphere far from the crowds. Here’s what a winter day exploring Mallorca’s most scenic region looks like. 🏡 Fornalutx — A Village Frozen in Time Tucked into the mountains, Fornalutx is often considered one of the most beautiful villages in Spain. In winter, it feels even more special: · Empty stone streets · Orange trees lining the paths · Traditional houses surrounded by mountains It’s the perfect place to slow down and experience the authentic side of Mallorca. 🌄 Deià & Valldemossa — Art, Nature & Views Driving along the Tramuntana coast, you’ll pass through the stunning villages of Deià and Valldemossa. These villages are known for: ✨ Dramatic mountain and sea views ✨ Artistic and bohemian atmosphere ✨ Charming streets and historic buildings In winter, without the summer crowds, you can truly enjoy their beauty at a slower pace. 🌊 Sa Calobra — Mallorca’s Most Dramatic Coastline One of the highlights of the journey is Sa Calobra. The road leading there is an experience in itself, with winding mountain curves and breathtaking viewpoints. At the bottom, you’ll find a hidden cove surrounded by towering cliffs and the famous Torrent de Pareis. In winter, the landscape feels even more wild and untouched. 🚗 The Perfect Winter Road Trip Exploring the Serra de Tramuntana is all about the journey: · Scenic coastal drives · Quiet viewpoints · Hidden villages · Unexpected stops along the way It’s one of the best ways to discover a more authentic and peaceful Mallorca. ✨ Travel Tip: Winter is ideal for exploring the Tramuntana - temperatures are mild, the light is perfect for photography, and there are far fewer tourists. My favorite moment was driving through the mountains with the sun lighting up the landscape, then arriving at Sa Calobra and finding it almost empty - a completely different side of the island. #palma #balearic #spain #travel #myitinerary #winterescape #hiddengem #naturalwonders

#travel #beachlife #familytravel #familytravel #poolhotel A fantastic family hotel, Ca's Saboners, is in Palma Nova, and a 5 minute walk to Magaluf. Stunning beach is roughly 300 metres away Hotel is very clean, maid service is great, rooms are cleaned daily. A taxi to Palma is roughly €18, try to get the bus back tho as a taxi can cost €75. A visit to Palma Cathedral is well worth it, remember to keep your shoulders covered and wear bottoms which are beneath your knees. Stunning architecture and lovely streets with plenty of shopping areas. Fantastic family holiday

#falladventures #travel #familytravel Quite a small beach, two equipped points, in the middle observation point of lifeguards who are always present and attentive. For people with walking problems, there is a large patio equipped with crutches of various sizes and a kind of pram especially for the beach that I think can also be used to get into the water. It's quite quiet apart from when someone rude gets on the Bluetooth speaker to disturb. Cleanliness leaves something to be desired; there is always a small rubbish around. The water is quite nice, there are a few algae. Near-zero waves. The presence of medium-sized rocks in the water and on shore that are not removed, and therefore care must be taken. Seagulls are a little intrusive, especially in the late afternoon. The cost of the umbrella with deckchair(s) includes the safe. Like the pictures if you enjoy them! Follow me, Travelogist, for more updates like these.

#falladventures #travel #familytravel Palma Nova Beach, Majorca. This is a small sandy beach overpopulated with people and sun loungers, making it noisy and busy. Very crowded. Sunloungers are expensive to hire at 24.50 euros. Mass market beach geared up for the tourist trade. Due to young families, it is very rowdy on the beach and is difficult to relax and sunbathe. Mass market catering opposite the beach with numerous shack-type eateries. Promenade walking alongside the beach is congested. Dog walkers allow their dogs to leave faeces, and it is picked up. Not an attractive beach with litter. Gorgeous beach with walkway right up to the sea to accommodate everyone. Sunbeds €22.50 to hire or take your towel and relax. Water is clear with lots of little white fish. Not too deep initially so great for kids to play or swim. Lifeguards at beach. Volleyball nets available for all. Ladies come round offering massages for €, great service but can be annoying as very frequent. Would benefit from more beach activities such as paddle boarding / hire boats. Bar on beach not very friendly and poor coffee. Toilets near beach €1 Like the pictures if you enjoy them! Follow me, Travelogist, for more updates like these.

#falladventures #travel #familytravel This place, on the whole, is great, but the fastrack option needs working on. Yesterday we queued an hour and half to ride the large family ring slide, it continually broke down, our 7 year old moaned the whole time been waiting in the sun, what makes matters worse is the fastrack kept coming round going straight on, we saw a group of young lads go on it 6/7 times whilst we waited, they shouldn’t let them go straight on when people have waited so long in the queue then sending rings down with 2 people in the them when they can take much more! The park does have an amazing selection of slides but it just seems a lot of money almost 150 Euros for a family of four when you have to then purchase massively overinflated average food ontop, the chicken fingers and chips nearly 18 euros, rock hard pizza costing the same with staff putting bacon on a pepperoni and making out that’s how a pepperoni comes and that I’m at fault for wanting it without bacon!!! Overall just seems a lot for very basic food! Then, having to pay 5 euros on top per sunbed and 7 euros for a locker, it mounts up and up and seems like it never ends!

The hotel acts as a gateway to both the laid-back coastline and the island’s more rugged interior, where nature and culture meet seamlessly. Days at Zel Mallorca often move between the beach and the mountains, from leisurely mornings by the water to afternoons exploring nearby Serra de Tramuntana. Evenings settle into a Mediterranean pace—sharing tapas, sipping local wine, and watching the colors shift across the sea. It’s a place where nature, comfort, and the island lifestyle come together effortlessly. #mytraveldiary
