Majorca, the largest of the Balearic Islands, is one of the most popular holiday destinations, and for good reason. With a vast selection of beaches and hidden coves, this sun-drenched island leads the way in Balearic beach bliss!
Long stretches of fine white sand coupled with water sports, beach bars and promenades, as well as more peaceful, pebbly coves off the beaten track, make Majorca’s beach selection varied yet satisfying.
Cala d’Or
Cala d’Or beach is one of the most popular beaches in Majorca. It's renowned for its captivating beaches and scenic beauty, and is located in the south-west of the island and has a wide range of facilities on offer, including sun loungers and parasols. If you want to eat or drink, there are plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.
Palma Nova
Palma Nova beach is one of the most gorgeous beaches in Majorca. Palma Nova is a small town on the east coast, close to the airport and just south of Alcudia Bay. The beach itself runs for about 4km, but it has two distinct areas: one relatively shallow and sandy with rocks in the middle; and the other which is much deeper and clear of rocks.
The beach is popular with families as there are plenty of facilities for children including a small water park near the entrance to Palma Nova marina. There’s also an excellent range of restaurants nearby if you don’t want to cook for yourself after your day on this glorious sun-kissed beach.
Puerto Alcudia
Stretching for several kilometers, this Blue Flag beach has fine, golden sand and shallow, calm waters. Its gradual slope into the sea makes it perfect for children to safely paddle and play. Water sports enthusiasts can indulge in activities like windsurfing and sailing, whilst those looking relaxation can bask in the sun or take leisurely walks along the shore.
Playa de Muro
Playa de Muro is a beautiful beach on the north coast of Majorca, close to Ciutadella. It's a haven for families and water sports enthusiasts alike. With its powdery white sand and shallow, calm waters, it's perfect for a relaxing day under the Mediterranean sun. There are also plenty of options for eating at the many seafood restaurants close by.
Our Alcudia villas are close to some of the best tourist beaches equipped for families, whilst our Puerto Pollensa villas offer easy access to long stretches of golden sand. The charming coves further south in Cala d’Or provide a more serene and tranquil experience.
