The
Balearics
The Balearic islands (in Spanish, 'Baleares') consist of the four
islands of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera, collectively
they are the most popular tourist destinations in Europe, if not
the world.
Mallorca
Mallorca
with its year round tourism, culture, history, beautiful scenery
and marvellous climate has welcomed holiday-makers since the early
1960's and today,
is more popular than ever. It has the added advantage of being only
a two hour flight from most major European Capitals (London, Berlin,
Frankfurt, Paris ), and
is a five hour Ferry ride from mainland Spain.
The island is aproximately 75 kilometres from North to South and
100 kilometres from East to West and is the largest of the Balearic
Islands. Its current population
is almost 1,000,000 with most living in and around the city of Palma.
This of course increases dramatically during the summer months,
with the arrival of tourists.
Distances:
Palma - Alcudia: 54 km
Palma - Soller: 33 km
Palma - Cala Millor: 71 km
Palma - Magaluf: 15 km
Palma - Cala D'or: 62 km
Palma airport is the 3rd busiest in Spain. Situated 8kms from the
capital of Palma it has all the necessary facilities you would expect
from a modern international airport.
The arrivals hall is large and just outside you can find information
desks, car hire offices and of course our staff who will be waiting
for our passengers on arrival.
The airport is distributed over 3 main floors. On the ground floor
we find the arrivals hall, on centre floor the check- in desks and
the upper floor is dedicated to departures,
with passport controls and a wide variety of interesting shops and
Duty Free outlets.
The check-in area is well sign posted and there are numerous information
boards and Closed Circuit screens offering the necessary departure
information.
Remember that most modern airports do not offer information over
the P.A. system so it's best to be near a screen to check the information
from time to time.
Things
to do in Mallorca
Sightseeing, excursions, boat charter, watersports, golf and cycling
are just some of the many attractions of a holiday on the island
of Mallorca.
To the west - mountains, in the centre - the agricultural plain
whilst to the south you'll find the buzzing city. And don't forget
the charming inland villages to get
a real feel for the rural life of the locals.
Palma- A day trip to Palma is often on the 'to-do' list of holidaymakers...
Sightseeing - An island it may be, but there are so many opportunities
to see other attractions apart from the fabulous sandy coves, beaches
and clear blue sea...
Markets - One of the fabulous things about Majorca is that the markets
on the island are alive and well...
Theme Parks - If you want some SPLASHtastic fun or just a cool down
in the heat of summer then Water Parks are a great day out...
Golf - Mallorca is full of first-class golf courses, some designed
by real masters of the game. The mild year-round weather is perfect
for golf...
Cycling - With a flat terrain, rolling hills, long climbs and diverse
scenery, Mallorca can offer cyclists the perfect environment from
early winter
through to late spring...
