Majorca holidays for all budgets | Majorca weather

Party in the south, relax by the Med and find pin-drop peace high in the Tramuntana mountains on holidays to Majorca.

The biggest and best-loved of the seven Balearic Island sisters, Majorca has many different personalities. The coastline is dotted with bays and coves with soft sands and translucent waters. Picasso artworks, historic courtyards and an immense Gothic cathedral dominate southern capital Palma. Partygoers live it up in the hedonistic clubs of Magaluf. Outdoorsy types are drawn to the jagged Tramuntana mountains in the north, where gorges slither down to the sea. Almond, olive and orange trees dot the hinterland, where only goat bells interrupt the calm - a taste of Majorca before the dawn of tourism.

Best of Majorca holidays for...

Families: Marvel at a forest of glittering stalactites and stalagmites in the spectacularly lit Caves of Drach, just south of Cala Bona. Kids can amaze their friends back home with tales of their boat trip across Lago Martel, one of the biggest subterranean lakes in the world.
Nightlife: The sweeping Bay of Palma harbours resorts like Magaluf, where you'll find boozy clubbing, karaoke nights and foam parties.
Relaxation: Nowhere is Majorca's sand whiter and sea bluer than at Formentor, where cliffs rear up out of the sea like a dragon's backbone. Find a shady spot under a pine tree to swim, sunbathe and unwind.
Shopping: After climbing the 365 steps of Pollensa's Calvario, nip into the town's arty boutiques for funky Spanish fashion, accessories and handicrafts. Shop-weary feet? Sit at an outdoor café on the Plaza Major to crowd-watch over coffee and feather-light ensaimadas pastries.
Romance: The hilltop village of Deia is as pretty as an Impressionist painting, with honey-coloured stone houses tumbling down to the Mediterranean. Wander hand-in-hand through lanes leading to flower-strewn courtyards, fragrant citrus orchards and mesmerising views - if you can take your eyes off each other!
Active types: Go north to play among the rugged granite peaks, olive groves and gorges of the Sierra de Tramuntana. Footpaths weave to tranquil mountain towns, monasteries and little-known coves where the sea is refreshingly cold.
Babies & toddlers: Tots are content to play all day by the seashore on holidays to Majorca. Take them to the gently sloping blue-flag beaches dotting six-mile Alcudia Bay to paddle in the shallow water and build sandcastles.
