Explore Mallorca Like a Local: A Day of Sun, Culture and Tasty Delights

If you are planning a trip to Mallorca, here’s how you can experience a true Spanish summer day, just like I did last summer! #summervacation 🏖️ My weekend adventure started with an early morning trip to the stunning Camp de Mar Beach in Andraxt. The crystal-clear waters were simply breathtaking, makinng it the perfect spot to kick off the day with some sun and relaxation. The beach is peaceful and not overcrowded, which makes it ideal for unwinding. #beachlife #explore Tip: If you are visiting during the high summer season, try to arrive early to secure a good spot on the beach. The water is perfect for swimming, and the surroundings are incredibly picturesque. 🥘 After soaking up the sun, I headed to a local restauranr along the way back to the hotel for some traditional Spanish tapas. The tapas were delicious and gave me a real taste of the island’s cuisine - a must try experience! From patatas bravas to jamon iberico. #foodie #localfood 🏘️ Once back at the hotel, we refreshed ourselves with a quick shower and set out again. This time, we drove to the city center of Palma, Mallorca’s vibrant capital. Strolling through the charming streets of Palma was an absolute delight. We visited the awe-inspiring Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma (La Seu), an architectural masterpiece that you can’t miss. The cathedral is even more stunning when you see it up close, and the surrounding are is perfect for a leisurely walk. #historicallandmarks #sightseeing Tip: The cathedral is especially beautiful at sunset when the light hits its intricate details. It’s also worth exploring the nearby Palma Old Town, with its narrow streets, shops, and cafes. 🍷 To cap off the day, we dined at De Tokio a Lima, a popular restaurant offering fusion cuisine right in the heart of Palma. I highly recommend it! The food and ambiance were exceptional, and it’s a great spot for a memorable dinner after a day of sighseeing. #deliciousfood Tip: If you are staying in Palma, this restaurant is in a prime location - easy to access, with plenty of other attractions around to explore before or after your meal. This day was a perfect mix of relaxation, culture and incredible food. Mallorca has so much to offer, and if you are planning a trip, don’t miss out on these experiences. Rent a car to make the most of your time on the island and explore at your own pace.
