Overview
Port de Pollença is the most northerly coastal town on Mallorca, developed from a tiny fishing harbour into a resort destination. It offers a relaxed alternative to more crowded southern beaches, with direct access to the dramatic Cap de Formentor peninsula and hiking trails to secluded coves.
