Mallorca, or is it Majorca?
Mallorca (also known as Majorca) is a Spanish island in the Mediterranean, and is the largest and the most popular of the Baleares (Balearic) Islands with Palma de Mallorca as its capital city. The island is well-known for its purpose built resorts and package holidays. Majorca, with a hard 'j', is a place invented by foreigners, where the sun always shines, the beer flows and the nearest you get to local culture is an argument with a taxi-driver. Mallorca, the local name for the island, is quite different and far more complex. This guide is about Mallorca. Stunning scenery for hiking, cycling and golf; luxury hotels and hip hideaways; superb marinas, boats, and sailing; top restaurants, tapas bars and food; great nightlife and bars; amazing villas, fincas and real estate; and this is what we focus on here on SeeMallorca.
