Exploring the Pine Walk in Puerto Pollensa (Port de Pollença), Mallorca, Majorca, Spain

Join me as I take a stroll along the Pine Walk in Puerto Pollenca (Port de Pollença), Mallorca (Majorca), Spain.
It’s a beautiful sunny day here in Puerto Pollensa, located on the North East coast of Mallorca, and just a few minutes drive from Alcuida Old Town and Cap de Formentor lookout.
Both Alcuida Old Town and Cap de Formentor are great, easy days trips to make from Puerto Pollenca , and there are so many other things to do in the resort.
Cycling in and around Alcudia and Puerto Pollensa is one of the 10 ten activities to do in Mallorca, and there is an easy bike ride to make from Pollensa Port right along the bike path to Alcudia Old Town and down to Alcudia beach.
I will also give you an update as to what its like in Mallorca right now. And while the resort is very empty now and due to covid-19 restrictions on international travel, if Summers holidays for 2021 do go ahead in your country and you are allowed to travel to Mallorca, then check out this video to see what can expect by going on holiday to Puerto Pollensa this summer.

In this video, we’re taking a look at the best things to do if you find yourself in this Spanish paradise. We talk about the old world charm, yet modern sensibility of the capital city of Palma. You’ll probably find yourself there at the beginning of your trip, as you’ll most likely fly to Palma to begin your Mallorcan fun. We talk about the best places to wander around in Palma, and how it’s a perfect mix of medieval architecture and cobblestone streets, with modern designer fashion and eateries. We also talk about the best places to go outside of Palma, including a classic train ride to Soller, as well as a trip over to Deia, a gorgeous and small town with a prime beach. And what would a trip to anywhere in Spain be without opportunities to eat tasty Spanish food and drink excellent Spanish wine.

We tell you where to go for both, including the famous village of Binissalem, which is the hub of wine tasting on the island. We also point out how this tiny island has not one or two, but NINE Michelin star restaurants. So any foodies or people looking for great fine dining will have plenty to work with on Mallorca. And we also tell you about some great museums to check out, some places to go with the whole family, and more. So check out this video today if you think you’ll be headed to Mallorca any time soon.

Please share with your friends.

We were looking for somewhere to have a snack during out trip to the Friday market in Binissalem and came across Can Murto in the corner of the square.
What a friendly place it turned out to be. The pepito de lomo was excellent and I had a nice cool shandy to wash it down.

Puerto Pollensa Nightlife, Mallorca (Majorca), Spain 2022

If you are planning a Mallorca holiday, check out the Puerto Pollensa Nightlife, Mallorca (Majorca), Spain 2022, for ideas of where to eat, how much a meal costs and where to go for a drinks and a dance after.

I also meet some local lads who tell me where the best nightclub is in Puerto Pollensa Mallorca.

You will also get an idea of when most people go out for dinner and where the busiest restaurants are to visit.

Nightlife in Puerto Pollensa (or Puerto Pollensa nightlife Majorca) isn't as lively as in other areas of Mallorca, but you can see where you can still find some fun bars if you are looking for a party.

A HIDDEN GEM in Puerto Pollensa, Mallorca, (Majorca), Spain

In this video join me as I uncover a hidden gem in Puerto Pollensa Mallorca (Majorca), Spain. Not only have I found a great hotel that is half the price of its luxurious neighbour but it is surrounded by some great value-for-money bars, cafes and restaurants.
Plus it's only a three-minute walk from Puerto Pollensa's main beach and a 10-minute walk into the Puerto Pollensa centre.
Puerto Pollensa (Port de Pollença) is considered by many out of reach price-wise due to its fantastic location, historical hotels and popularity with British travellers which goes back to the early 20th Century, so you'd be mistaken to think you cannot enjoy a value for money stay here.
Let me know in the comments if you have stayed in this area and what you think!

Majorca or Mallorca (/məˈjɔrkə/ or /-ˈdʒɔr-/; Catalan: Mallorca [məˈʎɔrkə], Spanish: Mallorca [maˈʎorka]) is the largest island in the Balearic Islands archipelago, which are part of Spain and located in the Mediterranean Sea.

The capital of the island, Palma, is also the capital of the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands. The Balearic Islands have been an autonomous region of Spain since 1983.The Cabrera Archipelago is administratively grouped with Majorca (in the municipality of Palma). The anthem of Majorca is La Balanguera.

Like the other Balearic Islands of Minorca, Ibiza and Formentera, the island is an extremely popular holiday destination, particularly for tourists from Germany and the United Kingdom. The international airport, Palma de Mallorca Airport, is one of the busiest in Spain; it was used by 23.1 million passengers in 2014.

The name derives from Latin insula maior, larger island; later Maiorica, the larger one in comparison to Minorca, the smaller one.

Mallorca Travel: Weekly Market Day in Binissalem

Spain - one of my favourite countries.... One destination I have wanted to explore for a long time is the beautiful island of Mallorca. So from May 20 to 31, 2009 I had the opportunity to get to know a good portion of this special Mediterranean island.

Popular as a package tourism destination since the 1960s, I was more interested in Mallorca's natural and cultural treasures which can be found away from the massive hotel developments that dominate some parts of the coastline. My favourite area of the island became the north: the rugged, relatively untouched Serra de Tramuntana mountain chain that runs along the islands north coast from east to west.

With my little rental car I was able to get into the tiniest villages and I ended up visiting virtually every major settlement on the Costa Nord. My favourite spot become Soller, a popular tourist town in the heart of the Tramuntana region, which has long been famous for its citrus plantations and its position among Mallorca's highest mountains. The Puig Major reaches an altitude of 1,445 metres (over 4700 feet) and Soller is embedded in a wide valley surrounded by majestic mountains. Soller is also the final terminal of the Palma to Soller vintage electric train. In addition, Soller is connected with a historic streetcar to the harbour town of Port de Soller which lies about 4 km away.

Some of my other favourites included Pollenca and Cap Formentor on the east side of the island; Banyalbufar and Sa Calobra on the steep, picturesque northern coast; Sant Elm, on the extreme western side of the island, a village that offers a great view of Sa Dragonera, the Dragon's Island; and Valdemossa, a very pretty village just a few kilometres inland from the coast, in the northern mountain area. Other country excursions included Inca, Mallorca's leather manufacturing town; Alaro, a gorgeous little mountain town; and various towns on the western side of the island, such as Puigpunyent, Galilea, Andratz and Calvia.

I also explored the eastern and southern coastlines of the island, including the historic walled city of Alcudia, the impressive medieval castles of Arta and Capdepera, and the scenic coves of Cala Rajada and Porto Cristo. Of course, a few visits to the capital of Palma de Mallorca were also part of my program. I thoroughly enjoyed the old downtown with its narrow alleyways and cobble-stoned streets. La Seu, the imposing Gothic Cathedral, is simply breathtaking, and I had the good fortune to be inside the church when there was an organ concert.

Palma has so many beautiful sights, which include the Palau de l'Almudaina, the Consolat de Mar, the gorgeous Parc de la Mar on the waterfront, and the round Gothic Castell de Bellver, which dates back to the early 1300s. For me Mallorca turned out to be a dream destination that offers near perfect weather, amazing landscapes, great recreational opportunities on land and at sea, and fabulous history and culture. I am sure I will make it back there again...
