Surfing in Palma

Mallorca is no surfing Mecca, but there are a few spots that are worth a try. These include Paguera on the way to Andratx, Alcanada, Cala Mesquida and Canyamel to the east. All are fairly distant from Palma town, so a good look at the weather map is essential. The best season is said to be September till May.

Cala Mesquida
Cala Mesquida close to the resort of Capdepera is one of Mallorca’s hotter surfing spots.
A surf school established here reportedly does some rentals.

Pollensa Sunday Market

This popular Sunday market is well worth the trip, no matter where you are on the island. Bustling with people, the streets come to life with fresh produce stalls, jewellery, clothes, leatherwork, all with a distinct quality feel. Cafes and restaurants get very busy and parking is suddenly scarce!
