Rent a car Solymar will explain it to you very quickly: MALLORCA HAS IT ALL. And the fact is that the largest Balearic island can boast not only beaches of incredible turquoise tones, but also mountains and lush valleys, wild cliffs, beautiful charming villages and incredible scenic roads. In other words: EVERYTHING.
1) Palma Centre: From the impressive Cathedral of Majorca to the Bellver Castle, the Almudaina Palace, its Roman remains, the narrow streets of the Jewish-quarter, the Majorcan ‘patios’, the promenade, the beaches and much more. Rent a car Solymar reminds you that in the old town, you can only drive at 20 and 30, and there are residential streets ACIRE in which you can′t drive with your car, and a lot of parking with a BLUE zone, which you must pay to park.
2) Sant Elm is a small coastal town located in the northwest corner of the island. This old fishing village located in the Sierra de Tramontana mountain range lies in front of the islet of Sa Dragonera.
3) Another spectacular place you can′t miss is the viewpoint of Sa Foradada (between Valldemossa and Deià), Torre de Ses Ànimes (between Banyalbufar and Estellencs), where you will find unforgettable sunsets and spectacular panoramic views.
4) The Tramuntana mountain range is pure nature. A connection with that more traditional and authentic Mallorca which, fortunately, has not yet been lost. With a maximum height of 1,436 metres, large wooded areas and impressive cliffs that plunge into the Mediterranean Sea, the mountain range is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Sierra de Tramuntana you should dedicate at least 2 or 3 full days to it. And it is a very long stretch of mountain roads full of curves and viewpoints, wonderful villages such as Bañalbufar, Valldemossa, Deià, Sóller, Fornalutx or Pollença, and some of the wildest beaches on the island such as Cala Estellencs, Cala Deià, Cala Tuent and Sa Calobra.
5) Sóller, that pretty and picturesque town that you can′t leave without seeing its streets and admiring its beauty, has its port, Port de Sóller, just a few kilometres away. You can reach it along a path lined with fruit trees, by car or by taking the tram from the Plaza de la Constitución. Rent a Car Solymar reminds you that these are Blue zones, and you must pay to park.
6) La Calobra and Cala Tuent, two of the most beautiful beaches in the Sierra . It is difficult to resist the crystalline waters, between powerful rocky cliffs . Of course, this is the most winding road in Mallorca, so Rent a car Solymar advises you to be very careful, as it is very busy with cyclists.
7) Cape Formentor, another of the most emblematic places to see in Mallorca. For its landscapes, its breathtaking viewpoints, its beautiful beaches and, of course, its incredible sunsets. Rent a car Solymar reminds you that in summer the road is usually closed due to excessive visits, and there is a bus service to get there.
8) Alcudia′s attractions: its kilometres of beaches, and here it is worth highlighting the beach of Muro. A beauty of fine golden sand, five kilometres long and with turquoise water. In Alcudia you can make a great historical tour in just a few minutes. The small pedestrian streets invite you to stroll and get lost among the walls and historic buildings. Rent a car Sol y mar always reminds you to look where to park, to avoid surprises, remember Blue zone, you have to pay.
9) The Mondragó Natural Park is a protected area that offers us the most diverse forests in its interior and a spectacular coastline.

In the case of Mondragó cove we can get there by car very close, while to get to S′Amarador beach we must walk along a short and simple path that starts from Mondragó itself.
Close to this area, you can also find other very beautiful coves such as: Cala Varques, Cala Mitjana, Caló des Moro, and Cala S′Almunia.
10) Es Trenc is located very close to Colonia de Sant Jordi, this beach of two kilometres of uninterrupted white sand, also boasts crystalline and shallow waters. Ideal for laying down your towel and enjoying several hours of swimming, a lot of relaxation and a beautiful sunset. Rent a Car Sol y mar informs you that it is difficult to park on the Ses Covetes side, it would be better to go to the guarded paid car park on the Colonia de Sant Jordi- Es trenc side!
