Together with its neighbor, Magaluf, the resort of Palma Nova on the south west coast of Majorca makes up the most popular holiday area on the island, situated a few miles west of the capital, Palma, and the Son Sant Joan International Airport. Most visitors to Palma Nova come on package tours from Britain, intent on enjoying an entertaining, fun-in-the-sun vacation in a "home-from-home" setting. Few are disappointed because the purpose-built resort offers all they need and more, from beautiful beaches to wild nightlife. The three sandy beaches of the holiday strip, Es Carregador, Playa de Palma Nova and Son Maties, are backed by a long promenade and have Blue Flag status. Palma Nova is divided from Europe's famed party capital, Magaluf, by a rocky headland, but the resorts are basically merged into one conglomerate of hotels and apartments offering a range of accommodation from budget self-catering to luxury-serviced suites. Palma Nova is known as the quieter section of this hedonistic seaside development, more suited to families.

Palma Nova Insider Information

  • Palma Nova has three great beaches.
  • See sharks, dolphin shows and crocodile ponds at Marineland which is where Palma Nova and Magaluf merge into one another  – often  known as Meganova. 
  • To prevent the excesses of tourism the area has pulled down the worst hotels. Other activities have been introduced such as guided walks and – great idea – wheelchairs that go in the water so that disabled people can enjoy being in the warm sea.
