Like many Mediterranean islands, Majorca is sort of split into two, where the south of island is home to lively resorts, and the north to quieter, more rural ones. Majorca is often better known for being a party holiday destination for young adults, but it's much more than that and now caters for families as well.
Majorca is the largest Spanish island, and because of it's size, it able to accommodate a range of different tourists and their holiday needs. Noth youg aprty goes and familiesi alike enjoy holidaying on the island because of its good weather; during the summer months of June-September the weather averages at 25-29C. However, there is more to Majorca than sunny days.
Palma, the capital of Majorca, lies to the south of the island on the coast, and is where the main international airport is located. Home to many of the islands biggest and best bars and clubs, it is also the cultural home of the island, with plenty of museums and galleries for families to explore. Perhaps even more exciting for families, children can join one of the tours which bring the island's spooky myths and legends to life.
Many families prefer to holiday to the north of island where more and more family orientated resorts are situated. With the Club 18-30s types dotted towards more southern and western resorts, the north is much more relaxed and picturesque, with the main family resort in the north being Alcudia. This family-friendly resort offers children and parents alike a wide range of activities to enjoy, including water parks (see Alcudia Hidropark), crazy golf courses, go-kart tracks and lots of beaches for the family to play on.
The east coast again offers plenty for families to do, with the resort of Callo Millor a family favourite. The resort not only has plenty of beaches and coves for kids to explore, but the area is also popular for cycle hire to encourage families to explore the area further. There is also a zoo safari for that real exotic adventure. Majorca's increasing appeal to families has meant that almost all hotels now cater for the family holiday makers who choose to visit the island, with many offering baby and day care, and even discounts for single parent families. All in all, Majorca is now just as much about partying as it is about providing affordable family holidays.
