Is it raining in Mallorca? What a shame, but it’s not a good reason to let a beautiful vacation day be ruined. Instead of sitting frustrated in your hotel room, consider an alternative to the beach and the sea. How about a little culture? Have you already visited Palma’s La Seu Cathedral, the Almudaina Palace, or the Miró Foundation? These are just a few suggestions. From the historic La Granja estate to caves like the Coves Drach, as well as wineries, olive oil mills, or glassblowing factories—Mallorca has many attractions you can enjoy without getting wet.

Tip for drivers: Don’t park your car in areas where water cannot drain well during heavy rain, especially in sloped dead-end streets. Also, it’s best to postpone any planned trips to the Tramuntana Mountains, as driving on narrow, winding roads can be dangerous. Be especially mindful of debris on the road!
