The horseshoe shaped bay is well protected from strong winds and so the calm, warm water of the Mediterranean sea is ideal for holidays by the beach. The resort offers lovely sea view apartments over the stunning beachfront Pine Walk as well as all inclusive hotel packages. Just like the town, the Port de Pollenca hosts plenty of festivals throughout the year.
Many are marine based such as regattas and seafood festivals. If you’re there this summer season, you’ll have to know about these two: Sant Pere fiesta celebrates the fishermen and is held on June 29th . The Verge del Carme fiesta is held during the second week of July. There is a good selection of shops, bars and pavement cafes to choose from and a couple of years ago now, a Burger King opened on the sea front. In a complete contrast, the resort also boasts several high class fish restaurants, which are claimed to be the best on the island. While the Bay of Pollensa beaches are all different, they all enjoy superb views. In the resort itself, the long sandy Llenaire beach offers a variety of water sports.
There is a range of watersports available and a great idea for your family fun is hiring a pedalo for an hour by one of the two pedalo hire stands by the beach. It will cost around €18 for an hour but the family fun is priceless when it comes to be numbered in wonderful moments. Other water entertainment available is banana boats or parasailing. If you’d like to get up close with some of the underwater beauties of Mallorca, there are many scuba diving excursions during the summer months to many dive sights along the rocks of the coastline. This place has numerous restaurants, cafés and bars, covering every taste and budget and some of them offer a memorable dining experience.
During the evenings in Puerto Pollensa, the town square turns into a hive of activity as restaurants around the square become busy. At the water’s edge in the marina you’ll find Stay – open all day every day of the year for everybody, offering you from a strong coffee to a delicious dinner. You will also find La Lonja, a modern restaurant where you can enjoy amazing, good fish dishes. Tucked away but worth finding is the Siller Restaurant, offering you a great Mallorcan food and a friendly welcome.
With its sense of timeless charm, Port de Pollensa is the sort of place where families and couples return to faithfully, year after year. Indeed, many – particularly the British – like it so much that they choose to buy second homes here, or even make it their main residence. There is a sense of comfort and safety here which makes it an attractive area for raising children. Take a walk through the Harbour and enjoy the views over the town. Pollensa is a delightful place to wander around.
