Sitting between Llucmajor and Santanyi, it’s a mere 8km away from the coast. Constructed from the famous local blonde stone, Campos is rather pretty and, whilst it remains a sleepy rural place, it acts as the administrative centre for this corner of the island which is most famous for its long sandy beaches and turquoise waters.
Campos
Traditional rural town in the south-east of Mallorca
Es Trenc Beach is the area's biggest attraction and, as a result of its popularity, there are some fabulous rural hotels scattered around the countryside near the town. We would recommend visiting Campos when it's celebrating its busy market on Thursdays and Saturdays, or you might want to get involved in the odd fiesta or village fair the locals host throughout the year. The town also boasts some wonderful bakeries and good quality restaurants serving traditional Mallorcan cuisine.
Events in Campos
Market days
Campos hosts not one, but two market days per week. Every Thursday and Saturday morning, the whole town comes to life as market stalls pop up selling fresh local produce. Traditional agricultural fairs are also popular amongst the locals. The May Fair, commonly referred to as La Fira de Ses Vaques (the 'Cattle Fair'), features local livestock and stalls selling local produce. The Harvest Fair in October is a trade and craft festival that includes the popular Sobrassada Fair (Mallorcan sausage meat), a great chance to try the local delicacy – best served on bread with a drizzle of olive oil or honey.
Saints days
Sant Julià , the patron saint of Campos, is celebrated on the 8 to 9 January every year. The dance of St Julia is held and the bonfires are lit.
A summer festival also takes place in the middle of August when locals put on street parties, food and dancing over the course of a few days.

History & Culture in Campos
Campos' early history
Founded by Jaume II around the year 1300 on the site of earlier Roman and Arab settlements, Campos is rich in history with many buildings of historical significance. The Church of Sant Julia is the most recognised, sitting in the location of a chapel dating back to 1248. The current church was finally inaugurated in 1873, although the bell tower was built between 1584 and 1597.
Modern era
The 21st century has seen the revival of the dairy industry in the area, with the restitution of many windmills in the surrounding countryside used for irrigation. Although the town has long been famous for producing ‘Piris’ cheese, which is matured in a mixture of brine and paprika for approximately three months before it's ready to eat, plenty can be found on market days if you want to sample the goods.
Sights & Attractions in Campos
History, architecture and culture in Campos
The Church of Sant Julia is a mish-mash of styles. Its façade is Neoclassical but do step inside to take a look at its detailed ceiling and the Gothic altarpiece made by famous Mallorcan sculptor Gabriel Moger. You will also find a painting of Christ by the famous Sevillan artist Murillo hanging in the chapel.
The Bronze Age settlement of Capocorb Vell isn’t far away from Campos, on the road towards Cala Pi. It's one of the most highly excavated Talaiotic sites in the Balearic Islands. You can see five talaiots and wander around the ancient village.
Outside of the town is where the main attractions of this region reside. With the beautiful natural beach of Es Trenc on its doorstep, it’s no surprise the town receives some ‘through-traffic’. There’s also a salt farm, ‘Las Salinas’ which produces salt following the same method first used by the Phoenicians a couple of thousand years ago. The salt from here is a prized souvenir, and it can be purchased from shops all around the island as well as in the shop next to the farm. If you’re interested in the ancient process, then you can take a guided tour of the salt pans.
Museums
The Museum of the Parish of St Julia, or the Sister Mary Rafela Museum, is dedicated to a legendary 20th-century nun. It displays items from her home such as the chair on which she sat to listen and guide people. It’s also a great way to learn about convent life of the period.
