The island which is big enough to cater for everyone whether it be young the party set, couples wanting to find a quiet spot to escape to or a family looking for great beaches all round entertainment, I'm sure which ever category you fall into that you will not be dissapointed with your visit to Majorca. It is the largest of the Balearic islands and definatley one of the most popular to visit in Europe and although much it has been developed for the tourist industry with high rised hotels, apartment blocks and shopping centres there are still some quaint towns and villages to explore off the beaten track. The capital Palma offers a cosmopolitan feel with historic monuments, museums and top class hotels offering amazing spa facilities, the old town of Alcudia also has some fascinating history that is if you dont mix it up with the modern tourist resort just 2 miles up the road.

There are too many holiday hot spots in Majorca to mention, with picturesque resorts such as Cala Millor or Cala Bona on the pretty East coast which are definatly worth a visit, or stunning palm tree lined Puerto Pollensa up in the North home to many luxury yatchs. The more well known Palma Nova and Magaluf are only a 20min ride from the airport making them a great choice for a holiday base and with wide golden sandy beaches that stretch for miles, some of the best shopping you could wish for and bars and restaurants offering every kind of food imaginable, who could ask for more from their holiday. Magaluf is of course known for a very different reason, the 18 to 30 crowd take residence here from June to September listening to world class DJ's spinning their best mix at clubs such as BCM's, Bora Bora or Poco Loco.
The perfect spot for the family to head to has to be Alcudia, the beach here is ideal for children and stretches for miles offering a great range of watersports for the more energetic amongst us, it has that home from home feel with everything from the English Breakfast to McDonalds which means the kids will never go hungry. A trip to the nearby water park is sure to be a hit with all age groups, or for the real thrill seekers try the go-kart track.

Eating out in Majorca can become quite a task with open air beach bars, cafe bars, British style pubs, Chinese, Indian and of course traditional Spanish restaurants all of which offer excellent value for money food, one thing about this part of Spain is you will not go hungry no matter how fussy you are
