When to go?
Spring (March-April) and autumn (Sept-Oct) are ideal for walking. Summer (June-Sept) is good for swimming at Pollensa and Alcudia, though it can get very busy in August. Pollensa has a music and cultural festival in July-August. The hotel closes for a few weeks before Christmas and for about a month after the New Year.
Author's tips
Pack a good book and a good friend. Walkers should bring sturdy footwear, sunhat, big water bottle and, for offbeat exploration, tough trousers against the tall, sharp-edged pampas grass.
