Local tip for your trip

If you want to enjoy one of Mallorca’s highest rated experiences without the usual tourist crowd, consider visiting the town of Pollença on a weekday. Early spring is an especially quiet time here, and the farmers’ market on Saturdays is still in full swing. Afterwards, a walk up to the Calvari steps rewards you with great views and is one of the island’s quietly popular spots,you’ll feel like you have it mostly to yourself. This area gets consistently great reviews because it blends culture, nature, and local life without the need for the heavy tourist infrastructure you find elsewhere.
