Mallorca is the largest, most populous, and most visited of the Balearic Islands. Some areas, such as the S'Arenal district of Palma, cater to British and other Northern European package tourists who come for sun, fun, and sport. But the capital city of Palma de Mallorca has many historic sights worth seeing, and a surprising number of villages and rural areas still have much of the charm that attracted visitors and expatriates to the island in the days before resort hotels and charter flights.
Tourist information
Balearnet: Mallorca
Mallorca (a.k.a. Majorca) is the largest island in the Balearics. Miles of high-rise hotels line the beachfront near Palma, but you'll still find peace and quiet in more remote coastal areas and the island's interior.
