Palma de Mallorca
If you're looking for a small paradise in Europe, you will find it on the Balearic Island, Mallorca. Discover the relaxing places of Palma de Mallorca in a beautiful surrounding with mediterranean vibes. And if you need some change, Mallorca has just the right mix of everything.
Mallorca has beautiful beaches. One of the most famous is right on the doorstep to Palma, the capital. Relaxing in one of the beach bars, enjoying the sun, the sea and having a stunning view on the cathedral of Palma de Mallorca, are just some of the many relaxing things you can do. Are you already imagining yourself lying in a deck chair?
However, if you are looking for something more hidden and calm, check out Cap Falcó Beach in Magaluf (30 min car ride from Palma), which is a real insider tip from us Travelfriends! A small beach in the middle of nowhere, ideal for relaxing. The little beach bar/restaurant offers very good food, especially the sea food is recommendable (freshly caught fish) and the unique atmosphere is going to send you directly into relaxing mode. Be aware that in the summer season you might have to book your deck chair in advance.
If you feel like going out for dinner, book a table at Bunker's. It's a very tiny unique restaurant in the heart of Santa Catalina in Palma. They offer a selected menu each day and prepare the food with fresh ingredients from the market next door. This restaurant will give your day the most delicious finish ever!

What to pack
Be aware, it's getting hot! When you're visiting in the summer, make sure you take your favorite bikini or swim shorts, plenty of sunscreen and sunglasses. We Travelfriends recommend to get an air mattress to float in the waters while taking a sunbath. You also want to bring some nice clothes for the evening, as the island has many fancy restaurants.
