Mallorca offers turquoise coves, the rugged Tramuntana mountains and lively old towns. Pack beach kit, walking shoes for the trails, and a smart-casual outfit for Palma's restaurants.

Best time to visit

May–June and September–October bring warm weather, swimmable seas and easier hiking than the hot, busy peak of July–August.

❓ FAQ

Packing for Mallorca — common questions

Are Mallorca's beaches sandy?+

A mix — the big resort beaches are sandy, but many of the prettiest coves are pebbly or rocky. Water shoes make them far more comfortable.

Can I hike and beach in one trip?+

Easily. The Tramuntana mountains are a short drive from the coast, so pack both walking shoes and swimwear, plus layers for cooler mountain mornings.
