About Majorca

The Tramuntana mountains, hidden coves and Spain's largest Balearic island

Majorca is Spain's largest Balearic Island — a destination that has been Europe's most popular package holiday choice for decades and yet, away from the strip resorts of Magaluf and Alcudia, contains some of the most beautiful coastal and mountain scenery in the western Mediterranean. The Serra de Tramuntana mountain range on the northwest coast is a UNESCO World Heritage Site: a dramatic landscape of ancient olive groves, walled terraces and stone villages like Valldemossa and Deià that inspired Chopin, Robert Graves and a long line of artists and writers. The Caló des Moro and Es Trenc beaches represent Majorca's best — accessible only by a hike through pine forest, the former is frequently cited among Europe's finest.

When to go: May to October is beach season. June and September are ideal. July and August are crowded but lively.
