Inland town in southern Majorca
Llucmajor is an inland town in the south of Mallorca, located within the plains that lie below the hills of Randa. The town itself is medium size, however, the area that surrounds it, also called Llucmajor, is the largest municipality on the island comprising of 16 villages including Cala Blava, Cala Pi and the famous tourist resort of S’Arenal.
The town has a lengthy history of agriculture and craftsmanship in stone, iron, wood and shoes. These days, it stays true to its native roots as there is little sign of tourism in the area. The town centre has a real mish-mash of architecture with ancient landmarks and old buildings alongside new houses. It’s mainly Mallorcans that reside here which means that it remains fairly lively year round.
Being an inland town, it was often overlooked as a place to stay in Mallorca in the past. However, in recent years, a number of country houses and estates have been transformed into idyllic holiday retreats, making it increasingly popular as a base for tourists visiting the island.
A market is held three times a week in Placa d'Espanya on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday mornings. Here you will find local produce from around the island. Almonds and apricots grow around the town and make good buys along with some locally created arts and crafts.
September is a big month for the town of Llucmajor, as the main fairs are held across three consecutive weekends. Expect arts and crafts, agricultural and livestock exhibitions, local food, sports competitions, music, dancing and more. Everything has a place in these fairs that identify the town of Llucmajor. The final fair ‘Es Firo’ is the biggest and best.

This ordinary country town, the largest in southern Mallorca, has its place in history as the site of a battle in 1349 during which Pedro IV of Aragon killed his relative Jaume III to end Mallorca's brief spell as an independent kingdom. Jaume's death is commemorated by a statue at the end of Passeig Jaume III.
Historically, Llucmajor was famous for its shoemaking. On Carrer Obispo Taxaquet there is a statue in honour of the town's cobblers. Shoemaking is still a significant industry here.
Buildings of note within the town of Llucmajor include the Church of Sant Miquel (1784-1866), the town hall (1884), and the church of Sant Bonaventure (1620-1656). All within easy walking distance of each other.
Other places to visit in the region include the Capocorb Vell, an impressive Bronze Age Talayotic settlement which has been hailed as one of the most significant prehistoric villages in the western Mediterranean.
While Llucmajor is an inland town, some of the most beautiful beaches on the south coast are within easy reach by car or by bus, including beautiful calas (small coves) with turquoise seas and sandy and shingle beaches. The prettiest is Cala Pi while the large commercial beach resorts of Playa de Palma and S’Arenal are just a 15-minute car ride away.
Playa de Palma is a long stretch of beach to the east of Palma de Mallorca and opening onto Palma Bay. It's also one of Mallorca's biggest holiday resorts.
Sheltered and protected from the winds, Cala Pi sits nestled between two tall rocky cliffs, with its name 'Pi' deriving from the pine trees bordering its clifftops. You can often see yachts moored at the end of the cove, further enhancing its already picture-perfect visual appeal.
Es Racó de S'Arena offers a complete escape from the bustle of tourists and is great for exploring or walking. If you're lucky, you could find yourself completely alone here. Even when there are other people, there is enough space to carve out an area which feels private.
Also known as Platja de Sa Ràpita, an alternative to Es Trenc is the beautiful neighbouring beach at S’Arenal de sa Rapita in the southeast of Majorca. It is much quieter than Es Trenc, and is popular with families, surfers and windsurfers.
Unassigned to any of the island’s numerous holiday resorts, the stunning beach of Es Trenc is geographically fairly isolated with a wonderful wild and natural feel. With 2km of bleached white sand and transparent water, it's often referred to as more Caribbean than Mediterranean in characteristics.
The small resort town of Ciudad Jardin lies around five kilometres east of Palma. Its beach, also commonly referred to as ‘Ciutat Jardi’, lies alongside a quiet promenade lined with palm trees, offering a huge variety of different styled bars and restaurants.
The restaurants in Llucmajor cater mostly to locals living in and around the town. Therefore, prices are quite appealing when dining out here and there are plenty of cuisines to choose from. If you are looking for a more refined dining experience, then the luxury hotels in the surrounding area have first-class restaurants.
When dining here you will find tapas, jamón, seafood, paella and more, with mostly no-frills kind of places that deliver top homemade food. Be sure to try some local Mallorcan wine too.

Llucmajor is popular amongst those keen to immerse themselves in authentic Mallorcan life. Whilst it isn’t necessarily built for large-scale tourism, you can certainly find a few things to do in the area, such as horse riding, and there's a few golf courses nearby. Or simply indulge in some wine tasting, especially the local Mallorcan wine. If you are, however, seeking more touristy options like waterparks, aquariums and long sandy beaches, head to nearby resorts S'Arenal and Playa de Palma.
Historically, Llucmajor was one of the first areas where Romans planted vines, and later gained an outstanding reputation for the wines produced here. Today, there are various vineyards in the area offering tours and tastings. If you're thinking of doing a tour or tasting, we recommend calling ahead in advance to book an appointment.
