Description
The Mallorcans simply call their capital Ciutat – and once you visit it, you will understand why.
Palma, the capital of Mallorca, is far more than just a city; it's a Mediterranean gem full of charm, history, and life. Its location on the expansive Bay of Palma is simply spectacular, offering breathtaking sea views and a fresh breeze at any time of day.
At the heart of the city rises the majestic La Seu Cathedral, one of the largest in Europe. In the morning, sunlight streams through the enormous rose window, bathing the cathedral's interior in a mesmerizing play of colors – an unforgettable sight. Surrounding it lies the old town with its winding alleys, shady avenues, and romantic courtyards, nestled behind the walls of ancient city palaces.
Embark on your own personal discovery tour and experience the real Palma at your own pace. Stroll through La Lonja, once a medieval trading exchange and now an architectural gem. Enjoy the tranquility of Parc de la Mar or be enchanted by the stylish atmosphere of Paseo del Borne, with its designer boutiques and charming sidewalk cafés. Feel the vibrant hustle and bustle of the city in Plaza Mayor, with its street performers and local market stalls.
Want even more? Immerse yourself in Palma's vibrant arts and culture scene with a visit to one of the numerous museums or galleries, browse local markets for authentic Mallorcan products, or explore the trendy Santa Catalina district—once a humble fishing village, now a culinary hotspot with tapas bars, bakeries, and Palma's most colorful market.
And for a truly unforgettable perspective: get out on the water!
This experience includes a boat trip through the Bay of Palma, where you can enjoy spectacular 360° views of the coast, the city skyline, and the cathedral. From the water, Palma reveals a whole new, impressive side. The boats depart from the Escalera Real (at 11:00 12:00 13:00 14:00 and 15:00 h), so you can flexibly choose the departure time that best suits your plans.
