Majorca

A week in April

Majorca is an island of contrast. The mountain range that runs from the north west to the south west separates the agricultural field of the centre of the island from the eastern rocky caves and secluded beaches to the beautiful sandy beaches and the bay of Alcudia in the north.

In the south, the island capital of Palma is a joy to explore, with its traditional Spanish architecture and modern city atmosphere almost complimenting each other amidst the abundance of palm trees which line the paved streets.

A short distance from Palma the tourist resorts of Magalluf, Palma Nova and Arenal provide the holiday atmosphere and home from home feel that many seek. The British bars and familiar brand names are a testimony to the number of British holiday makers who visit these isles.
