Tips for Budget

Discover the Patios

Many of the large mansions in the old town hide spectacular patios.Some can be visited and the City Council organizes thematic routes.

Sunset in Portixol

Instead of the busy centre, walk or cycle along the promenade east to the old fishing port of Portixol.It is the perfect place to watch the sunset with views of the cathedral from one of its many terraces.

The Rhythm of the Island

Although Palma is an active city, life in general has a more relaxed pace.Don't stress if the service is slower than other places.

Maximum Sun Protection

The sun is very strong on the island, even on cloudy days.The use of sunscreen, hat and sunglasses is essential.

Tap Water

Tap water is drinkable, but has a high lime content and a very strong taste.Almost everyone, locals included, drinks bottled water.

Beware of Theft

As in any major tourist destination, keep an eye on your belongings in busy areas such as downtown, the airport and beaches.

Common Scams

Be careful with 'trileros' (ball game) and other street scams in very touristy areas.
