Mallorca (or Majorca) is the largest of the Balearic Islands, off the north east coast of Spain. It is a beautiful Mediterranean island, which has long been a favourite holiday destination for British tourists.
The oldest and most developed tourist resorts are on the south west coast, close to the capital city of Palma. These include Magalluf and Palma Nova and are particularly popular with young, single British holiday makers, looking for sun, sea, sand and the opposite sex.

However, Mallorca has much more to offer than cheap mass tourism. Many resorts are more family orientated, particularly the northeastern resorts of Puerto Pollenca (Port de Pollensa) and Alcudia Bay. This whole area is very popular with cyclists, walkers and bird watchers.

Other, less easy to reach areas of the island aim to appeal to the upmarket tourist. For instance, the villages of Soller and Valldemossa on the shores of the north west coast, backed by a mountain range running parallel with the sea, the Sierra de Tramuntara. The rugged terrain and mountain peaks present quite a contrast with the gentle east coast and are well worth a visit, if you have the nerve for some interesting gradients.
Mallorca seems to have the capacity to cater for a wide range of tourist in great numbers. Its beaches, coves and mountains are truly beautiful.
