Activities in Palma
But what is special about Palma? Palma de Mallorca is the capital of the Spanish Mediterranean island of Mallorca. With around 400,000 inhabitants, the municipality is the cultural center of the island, where genuine locals meet tourists and part-time Mallorcans who spend their vacations in their own property several times a year. Palma de Mallorca is therefore extremely international and offers a wide cultural as well as nightlife scene. Last but not least, this unique city impresses with its location by the sea and the many possibilities of various activities in Palma.
Activities in Palma: The morning
After a good night's sleep, nothing is better than having breakfast in the morning while the sun kisses you awake. Here we especially recommend breakfast at Anima Beach Club, located in the trendy nightlife district of Cuidad Jardin, overlooking Palma.
Afterwards, one of the many activities in Palma is a stroll along the sea promenade, which leads you into the old town. Its church towers and chicly renovated old town palaces attract visitors from afar. It's also worth taking a look at the courtyards, which are a relic of the Moorish period, when Mallorca was still under the rule of the Emir of Granada. You can also see these influences in the Almudaina Palace, which stands next to the cathedral and is a spitting image of the Arab occupants. Nowadays, the palace is the government building of the Spanish king and can be visited - we therefore recommend that you make a detour to these premises during a trip to Palma to admire the terrace with magnificent views over the bay.
Activities in Palma: unwind while shopping
After a little culture and many admirable buildings, a detour to Palma's boulevard, the Passeig de Borne, is worthwhile. There the noble boutiques line up next to each other, from Louis Vuitton to Hugo Boss, no wish remains unfulfilled. In the old town alleys trendy stores are waiting for you and especially at MONGE probably no woman comes past, who would like to get a bag or shoes ,,Made in Mallorca". This can therefore possibly become one of the most expensive activities in Palma,
as you are surrounded by enchanting fashion and great concept stores.
Activities in Palma: recharge your batteries
Culture and shopping can be quite exhausting. But for those who don't want to give up shopping altogether, a combination of both worlds is the perfect solution: Rialto Living. This offers activities in Palma that combine shopping, gastronomy and architecture. In the beautifully developed old town palace you will find everything from interior design to hip fashion, art and a bistro that Mallorca stands for and makes the heart beat faster. The palace is located in the center of Palma and can therefore be reached quickly from your own property in Palma.
Activities in Palma: Calm and relaxed
When the stomach is full and the shopping bags are full, a quiet activity in Mallorca is a good idea. Connoisseurs are therefore often drawn to the old town area of Santa Clara, where the convent of the same name awaits. The nuns of this convent do their own baking and sell these delicacies in a small room in the courtyard. Many people enjoy, as one of the options for activities in Palma, to visit the church and, if they are lucky, to listen to the church choir of the nuns.
Activities in Palma: Nightlife
When it gets dark in Palma, the choice of activities in Palma becomes even greater. The Mediterranean life awakens and for a stop you often meet in one of the numerous bars and vermuterias, such as "La Rosa Vermuteria", before you seal the evening culinary in the trendy district of Santa Catalina.
If you finish the day looking out over the bay from the terrace of the Es Baluard art museum to Bellver Castle and the cathedral, you'll realize why Palma de Mallorca is loved by so many people.
