If you come to Mallorca for swimming, you should arrive in the summer months when the Mediterranean Sea warms up to 25 °C. Spring and autumn are the best times for hiking.

The typical island cuisine of Mallorca
There are thousands of restaurants, bars, cafes, and clubs of all styles in Mallorca. However, if you are looking for authentic Mallorcan cuisine, you are in the right place in the Serra de Tramuntana in
Mallorca's West. Around your holiday home or apartment in Fornalutx, you will find the typical dishes of the area - paella is definitely not one of them. This originally comes from Andalusia. Among the meat dishes, rabbit is popular, for example, conill amb cebes, which are rabbit pieces in an onion broth. Another typical dish is frit mallorquí. This consists of small pieces of offal, tomatoes, wild fennel, and lots of garlic. A dish you have to search for is llom or colóm amb col. This is a cabbage roll with pork (llom) or pigeon (colóm), cooked in a broth of Mallorcan white wine, bacon, raisins, and pine nuts. Mallorca's wine actually deserves a chapter of its own. The island wines have made an incredible leap in quality in the last twenty years. Today, the best producers in the region compete with the great wines of the mainland. Stroll through the romantic alleys of the village after a successful dinner and enjoy your Mallorcan journey with your own finca, apartment, or house. Spend an unforgettable break in a Mediterranean atmosphere by the sea.
