16 must-see attractions and activities in Mallorca

13) Take a hot air balloon ride over Mallorca

A hot air balloon ride is one of the most impressive ways to see the beauty of Mallorca. It’s not the most economical activity, costing just over 170 euros per person, but it’s guaranteed to be an unforgettable experience. Children aged 4 to 12 can enjoy a reduced price of 80 euros.

Departing from Cala Millor or Manacor, take a 2-hour flight over the northeast of the island, where you can sip champagne while enjoying panoramic views of the beaches and coastal scenery.

Remember to book your flight before you go, and if possible, plan to do this activity on the day you arrive. If you have to cancel, you’ll have more time to reschedule. If you choose to go early in the morning, you can even watch the sunrise on the cable car and enjoy breakfast after your flight.

14) Take a cruise and a vintage train

Spend the whole day exploring the landscapes of the island’s west coast, from the Serra de Tramuntana mountains to the Soller valley. Your guide will pick you up at your hotel or the airport and tell you about Mallorca’s history.

After enjoying the sea and the beach in Sa Calobra, you will take a short 40-minute cruise to the port of Soller and then board a vintage wooden carriage to Son Reus. Throughout the journey, you will enjoy the stunning views of the sea, cliffs and valleys in the area. This activity lasts a total of 9 hours and costs approximately 70 euros per person.

15) Mallorca Roller Coaster

This is an original activity that combines nature exploration and thrills and is becoming increasingly popular in Mallorca. The principle of this activity is simple: you plunge directly into the sea from a cliff more than 10 meters above the water in a spectacular setting.

Of course, the roller coaster is an activity that must be guided by professionals who will provide you with instructions and equipment to ensure that you do not take any risks and can fully enjoy your experience. Therefore, you need to wear a helmet, a life jacket and special shoes to avoid slipping on the rocks. You can start with a small jump, then slowly jump up and finally jump down. In addition to jumping directly into the water, you can also slide down along the rope between the cliff and the water.

16) Catamaran cruise in the Bay of Palma

This cruise will take you to the most beautiful spots along the coast of Palma. You will sail along the southern coast of Mallorca on a catamaran and discover some wonderful little coves.

During this 5-hour tour, you will make two stops in Portals Vells or Cala Vella. At these two stopovers, you can enjoy water fun, snorkeling, and admire the cruise ships and luxury yachts anchored in the port. You can also enjoy a barbecue on the deck. Catamaran cruises from Palma start at around 56 euros per person.
