The largest island within the Balearic Islands chain, Mallorca, is favoured for its enticing mix of leisure activities, including a thriving arts scene, fascinating sightseeing and world-class dining. The ideal island for nature-loving explorers, its varied landscapes range from rugged mountains, with the highest peak Puig Major rising to 1.445 metres, to fairly flat but rich green plains covered in pine forests, olive and lemon groves. Renowned for its beautiful beaches, its coastline consists of more than 200 golden sand beaches lined with secluded coves, bays and limestone cliffs surrounded by crystalline turquoise waters.
