Mallorca, part of Spain’s Balearic Islands, is a true gem of European tourism. Its beaches are one of the main attractions for visitors, featuring wild, almost exotic landscapes that serve as a stunning showcase for the islands. From north to south and east to west, Mallorca is brimming with beaches worth visiting, some wild and others fully equipped with all necessary amenities. This makes the island a perfect destination for those seeking a peaceful nature retreat as well as those looking for exclusive restaurants and dream hotels.

With so many beaches to choose from, it can be challenging to decide which ones to visit. To help you decide, I’ve put together a guide to the most beautiful beaches in Mallorca. 

Must-see Attractions in Mallorca – What to see in Mallorca

 

1. Formentor Beach

Formentor Beach in Mallorca is the most impressive beach I’ve seen, and it’s at the top of my list of favorite beaches. Surrounded by a beautiful pine forest, the beach stretches out in a graceful crescent shape. There are only two restaurants in the area, so prices can be high. You can rent sunbeds and umbrellas, but with the nearby forest, you’ll also have natural shade. The sea is very warm in the summer months, making this beach one of the most sought-after in Mallorca.

How to Get to Formentor Beach

Formentor Beach is located at the northernmost point of the island, about 70km from Palma de Mallorca. There is no direct transport from Palma to Formentor. You need to take bus 301 to Port De Pollença, and then the shuttle 334 to Formentor. It’s advantageous to stay in Pollença and make a day trip to Formentor, as we did.
