3.SHOP

The first time we visited Palma de Mallorca, the cosmopolitan feel of Palma was something that took us by surprise. We did not expect so many exclusive boutiques and high-end stores. Mum-to-be awaits a true haven of pre-birth shopping in Palma and is therefore one of our favourite things to do in Mallorca.

PALMA: throughout the city, you will find shops, in particular, there are some excellent shopping streets, such as Sant Miquel, Union, Jaime III and El Born. The experience of entering their markets can also be very special: l’Olivar Market or Market of Santa Catalina.

Furthermore, the Passeig per l’artesania is an area inhabited by artisan shops and the Plaza Mayor, where every morning craft stalls are mounted. There are several large shopping centres in both the city centre and nearby.
