Palma de Mallorca is the picturesque capital of the Balearic Islands, filled with beautiful beaches, historic castles, ancient churches, museums, a national park and an aquarium.

Palma de Mallorca can be reached by flying to the island from European cities, or the more convenient and affordable option, which is stopping there while on a cruise. Luckily, it’s a popular embarkation port for many European and Mediterranean cruise itineraries.

Sunbathe in Camp de Mar and take a refreshing dip in the sea or make a trip to Cabrera National Park. There’s so much to explore along the city’s compact waterfront, so you’ll be able to see and do a lot, even if you only have a day.
