Bustling Majorcan beach resort
A 6-kilometre stretch along Majorca’s south coast, Playa de Palma holidays offer powder-soft sands, crystal-clear waters, a palm-lined promenade and buzzing nightlife. All this combines to make it a family-friendly resort that’s also ideal for friends and couples. The main beach reaches from Ca’n Pastilla to S’Arenal and has been awarded the Blue Flag for its high standards and clean, shallow water, making it perfect for kids to play in.
People who love water sports will also be in heaven with everything from adrenaline-fuelled jet-skiing, water skiing and paragliding to slower-paced pedalo rental available. As day turns to night, sun-worshipping partygoers can go straight from beach to bar, as the seafront is teeming with bustling pubs, rustic shack bars and ultra-chic DJ clubs. Sip on a sundowner and enjoy a romantic dinner, or party the night away until the early hours.
