1.The Cathedral of Palma: History and Majesty
Visiting the Cathedral of Palma, also known as La Seu, is a must-do experience. This architectural jewel, with the tallest Gothic structure in Europe, dominates the skyline of Palma and offers stunning views of the sea. The light that passes through its impressive rose window creates a unique visual spectacle, especially on certain days of the year when the light casts a perfect reflection under the opposite rose window.

Mallorcan gastronomy is a sensory journey, and a must-stop is tasting the Pa amb Oli. This simple but delicious dish consists of crunchy bread rubbed with tomato, drenched in extra virgin olive oil, and accompanied by local cold cuts such as sobrasada or Mahón cheese.

6.Wine Tasting at the Mallorca Wineries
Mallorca has a growing wine tradition. Its wines, from the Binissalem and Pla i Llevant appellations, have gained international prestige. We recommend visiting wineries in Santa María or Binissalem, where you can taste wines made with native varieties such as Manto Negro and Callet. And if you prefer an experience without leaving the center of Palma, at Es Princep, you'll find a select wine list featuring the best of the island.

If you’re passionate about natural wonders, you can’t miss Ses Fonts Ufanes, an intermittent spring that gushes forcefully after heavy rains. Located in Campanet, it’s a perfect spot for hiking and nature lovers.
8.Popular Festivals: Tradition in Its Purest Form
Mallorca is an island with a rich festive tradition. If you visit the island at any time of the year, you’ll surely coincide with some celebration, from the Festes de Sant Sebastià in Palma to the fairs and traditional markets in the villages. These festivals are the best way to learn about the local culture, its gastronomy, and the hospitality of the Mallorcans.
9.Charming Ports and Dreamy Sunsets
Mallorca's maritime ports are ideal settings for a relaxing stroll and an unforgettable dinner with sea views. From the luxurious Puerto Portals to the traditional Port d’Andratx, each port offers a unique atmosphere. If you're looking for a gastronomic experience with unbeatable views, the restaurants at Es Princep allow you to taste the best Mediterranean products with exceptional service.
