The twin resorts of Magaluf and Palmanova are the most popular destinations for the Brits and Irish in Majorca. Although technically the dividing point between Magaluf and Palmanova is still somewhere on the rocky headland between the two beaches, the two resorts have over the years, grown to the point where they now effectively merge into one. Palmanova is the quieter of the two resorts and perhaps better suited to families, with Magaluf very much the party capital.
A hedonistic mix
The hundreds of bars and discos, plus plenty of affordable accommodation and restaurants make Magaluf a favourite for young people looking for a hedonistic mix of drink, nightlife, party, sun and beach. Both Magaluf and Palmanova have fine sandy beaches and plenty of activities to keep you busy during the daytime - jet skiing, go-karting, boat trips, and countless shops along wide traffic free promenades.
Winter quiet
Outside of the summer months the area does have something of a personality change as the 18 to 30s leave the island to be replaced largely by a quieter crowd looking to take long winter breaks in the Majorcan sunshine. Although many of the cafes and restaurants remain open, many of the livelier bars and discos are closed during the week, opening at weekends for the stag and hen parties that invade the town.
