A Getaway to the Drach Caves
The Drach Caves in Mallorca are one of the island’s most famous attractions when the good weather arrives in spring. Take a boat tour through the caves to learn about their origins and history, all while marveling at the natural wonders inside. This is an unmissable spring activity if you’re visiting Mallorca.
A Must-See in Mallorca: Port de Sóller
Located in the north of the island, Port de Sóller is the only port connected by a scenic train ride from Palma de Mallorca to the charming town of Sóller, nestled at the foot of the Serra de Tramuntana mountains. It also serves as a gateway to coastal spots like Sa Foradada, Turent, Sa Calobra, and Torrent de Pareis. If you’re wondering what to see in Mallorca, this quaint village is a must-visit.
The port has become one of the island’s most popular tourist destinations, thanks to its unique charm, peaceful atmosphere, and a wide range of dining options and hotels.
Gastronomy Fairs in Mallorca in Spring
If you’re a food lover, springtime activities that include tasting local dishes and recipes are made for you. In April, Mallorca hosts several gastronomic fairs, including those in Port d’Alcudia, famous for its variety of cuttlefish preparations. There’s also the Porto Cristo fair, where local restaurants serve creative seafood dishes.
You’ll also find other food fairs around the island, such as the one in Muro, where you can try traditional dishes like arròs brut, espinagada de Sant Antoni, and various types of sobrasada and longanizas.
Another market worth visiting in Mallorca is in Ses Salines, where you can purchase gourmet salt—one of the island’s specialties, making for a perfect souvenir. If you prefer something healthier and organic, then the Porreres fair is for you. All these spring activities are ideal for your holiday with friends, as a couple, or with the family.
Of course, if you’re planning to visit the island in March or April, the most important thing is to have a comfortable place to rest and fully enjoy the good weather. You can find charming hotels like those from Vibra Hotels, which offer great value for money. The Hotel Beverly Playa, located right on the beachfront in Paguera, Calvià, and just 300 meters from the town center, is a great choice if you’re looking for a blend of nature and leisure. All rooms come with a terrace offering stunning sea views.
If you’re looking for accommodation closer to the city, then the Hotel Vibra Palma Cactus is perfect. It’s great for enjoying Playa de Palma and offers a range of activities, while also being just a 15-minute drive from Palma’s city center.
Visiting the island in March and April is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the pleasant weather, the Mediterranean, and the various food fairs that Mallorca has to offer. After a day of sightseeing, what better way to unwind than by staying at one of the Vibra Hotels and enjoying a delicious cocktail by the pool.
