It is not far to Majorca
An Advertorial Feature
It’s a small world, they say, and a good thing too. The beauty of Majorca is that it offers all the heat and sizzle you’d expect from a top holiday destination and yet it’s so close. Just a quick hop and you’re there.
The Balearics is one of the world’s top holiday destinations, an archipelago of islands in the Mediterranean stretching out from Spain’s eastern coast. They are a fabulous mix of the vibrant urban life and drowsy rural seclusion.
Many tourists never venture far beyond the capital cities, and they are certainly wonderful places to spend time. As well as hosting world famous clubs like Space, Privilege and Pacha, the old port in Ibiza town is one of the island’s many World Heritage Sites. Palma, meanwhile, is a rich and cosmopolitan city with a unique mix of Roman, Arab and Byzantine influences. Must-see sights include the famous La Seu cathedral and the stunning Old City.
Meanwhile Majorca (or Mallorca as if also known) has something for everyone, whether it’s the stunning mountainous regions, wonderful bays, or dazzling beaches. It is full of breath-taking historical buildings, from old castles to waterfront watch towers, and enjoys a cosmopolitan cultural life, ranging from award-winning museums to adventure theme parks. Its entire coastline is peppered with spectacular caves, some so vast that concert performances are held in them.
But the really smart visitors to the Balearics don’t just stick solely to the towns. They organise car hire Majorca at the airport and make sure they see everything that these islands have to offer. Ibiza is not just the party capital of the world. Large parts of the island are full of hidden gems and entirely unspoilt, boasting sensational beaches, romantic coves and sleepy village markets. The only way to reach them is to jump behind the wheel and explore.
So you see, the Balearics are simply too rich and diverse to do half-heartedly. Or on foot. By hiring a car you can not only explore everything these sensational islands have to offer, but you can visit them all using the car ferry service that connects the islands.
Majorca has never felt nearer. Check out the cheapest flights to this beautiful island and experience all the surprises it has to offer.
