Pack a picnic and head for the S’Albufera Natural Park. It’s a treasure trove for wildlife fans with a well-marked walking trail to explore – just follow the red marks, or grab a map from the info centre.

If you’re after a fun-filled family day out, Marineland is one of Spain’s largest aqua-and-animal parks and is bursting at the seams with attractions. We’re talking dolphin shows where a group of bottle-nosed beauties show off their acrobatic and swimming skills, exotic bird displays featuring brightly plumed parrots and macaws and huge aquariums showcasing sharks, turtles and shoals of tropical fish. Add a penguinarium, sealion shows and a tropical house crawling with snakes and lizards and there’s something here to please all ages.

There are also sunbathing areas and cafes, as well as access to the private beach, for when you all need a break.

Go bargain-hunting at the Sunday market for clothes, jewellery and food gifts.

Visit the ruins of Pollentia and take the steps to reach atop the ancient walls for panoramic views of Pollensa Bay.

Drop in at the local shop Sa Cisterna to pick some traditional products and always be on the look out for quaint wine cellars where you can taste and buy local wines.
