Mallorca Travel Guide

Travelling in Mallorca

Welcome to the ultimate Mallorca travel guide. I’ve been returning to Mallorca at least once a year for the last decade, so if you need any tips or tricks you’ve come to the right place. From travel itinerary suggestions to the best restaurants and bars around, we’ve got it all.

Currency:

Euros

Language:

Spanish/Catalan

Best time to visit:

Summer

Best time to visit: Although the summer can be busy the Spanish islands aren’t overly far south so you’ll want to stay pretty on-peak to get the best weather. Though if you’re looking to explore Palma then an off-peak city break might be the way to go!

Safety: Mallorca is a very safe place, like a lot of Western Europe. The only thing to be on the lookout for is pickpockets, as with all busy towns and cities.

Tipping: 10% is the customary tip rate

Cash & ATMs: You can pay by card at almost all supermarkets, restaurants and tourist destinations and there are ATMs in every major town.

Where should I stay in Mallorca?

Mallorca is a stunning island with loads of great resorts as well as a large variety of more ‘off the beaten path’ destinations. My favourite part of the island is the East coast as it’s far less busy than anywhere near Palma. The East coast has great towns like Porto Cristo, Cala Millor, Cala Ratjada and Portocolom.
