MAJORCA
Mallorca (or Majorca) offers the visitor a choice of superb beaches, wonderful scenery, and a diverse range of resorts. For lively beaches and vibrant nightlife choose a holiday in Magaluf or Palma Nova. Here you will be assured a host of shops, British pubs, discos and clubs. For a quiter holiday visit Puerto Pollensa, Cala d'Or or one of the smaller resorts. The main town of Palma has a wide choice of shops, restaurants and plenty for the touristincluding a cathedral, a castle, and a marina. Inland you will find picturesque mountain scenery and a chance to explore underground caves, caverns, and subterranean lakes.
There's far more to Mallorca (also spelled Majorca) than sun, sea, sand and sangria. Find your way through the hoards of sun worshipping tourists, and you'll discover another side to the island, secluded villages, orchards and hidden coves. For a livelier time, the parties go on thoughout the night and early morning clubbing sessions are the norm. The capital, Palma, is very busy most nights, with chic restaurants and a bustling nightlife.
The island boasts 300 out of 365 days of sunshine, but Mallorca's peak season is summer (June, July and August). At this time the resorts are packed, beaches are bursting and accommodation and restaurant prices are upped. You will get the best weather though, with sunny tan-friendly temperatures and a pleasantly bath-tub-like sea.
