Mallorca travel won’t disappoint

Known as the largest island in the Balearic archipelago off the coast of Spain, Mallorca is a hotspot for tourists seeking an unforgettable Mediterranean vacation. This naturally beautiful island has been ruled by various kingdoms over its centuries-long history but is now a major destination for European tourists looking to enjoy the sun and sand. Is also well-known, for its sunny climate and beaches and is a major tourist destination, especially during the summer. The island is the biggest of the Balearic Islands; the other three are Menorca, Ibiza and the tiny Formentera. Travel to Mallorca is relatively easy; more than a million visitors go there each year from all over Europe. People often give me quizzical looks when I tell them that Mallorca is my favorite place in the world. Maybe because they didn’t saw the island yet. Or they confuse Mallorca with Ibiza, its Balearic neighbor, which is light on culture and heavy on yacht parties and entertainment. However, at just over 1,400 square miles , Mallorca is bigger and brighter than everything around it. For one thing, it’s rich in history, having been passed back and forth for centuries between Islamic and Christian powers before becoming a base of Catalan culture, now the sunny Mallorca experiences a Mediterranean climate. Cool, mild winters with temperatures around 10 degrees and bright, sunny summers where daily temperatures rarely exceed 27 degrees where the rainfall is at its lowest. Those looking to get the most out of their Mallorca travel should then visit between May and September when the days are very pleasant  and the evenings are just warm enough to make nighttime adventures easy and comfortable. Here you have a list with the things not to miss while you’re in Mallorca. Don’t worry, some of the places I will number here are on the waiting list to be put in a detailed spot just to raise the excitement for your future visit, so here we go:
