Majorca Essentials

Majorca’s landscape is defined by the UNESCO-listed Serra de Tramuntana mountain range and the iconic Gothic architecture of Palma. This selection features the 14th-century circular Bellver Castle, the subterranean Drach Caves, and the restored medieval walls of Alcúdia. Coastal highlights include the dramatic Cap de Formentor cliffs, the secluded Calo des Moro, and the white sands of Es Trenc. Cultural landmarks like the Valldemossa Charterhouse and the Lluc Sanctuary offer insight into the island's royal and religious history, while Palma Cathedral showcases modern interventions by Antoni Gaudí.
