Port de Pollença, Coastal town in northern Mallorca, Spain
Port de Pollença spans along a curved bay with a mountain backdrop, featuring a waterfront promenade lined with Mediterranean pine trees and sandy beaches.
The settlement evolved from an ancient Roman fishing port into a resort destination, maintaining its maritime heritage through preserved architecture and harbor activities.
Local festivals throughout the year showcase traditional Mallorcan music, dance performances, and gastronmic specialties like butifarra and sobrasada at street celebrations.
The town offers direct access to water activities such as sailing and windsurfing, while regular bus services connect visitors to other parts of Mallorca.
A military base near the town hosts amphibious firefighting aircraft that practice water collection maneuvers in the bay throughout the year.

Mallorca offers diverse landscapes where fine sandy beaches and wild coves surrounded by limestone cliffs succeed one another. On the northwest coast, Sa Calobra marks the spectacular mouth of the Torrent de Pareis, while Cala Figuera nestles between the rocky walls of Cape Formentor. To the southeast, near Santanyí, Caló del Moro and the Mondragó natural park reveal other facets of the Mediterranean coast. The island's architectural heritage reflects centuries of history. In Palma, the Gothic cathedral from the 14th century dominates the port with its nave standing 144 feet (44 meters) high and 61 stained glass windows. The round Bellver Castle, built in 1311, is perched on the heights of the city. The Drach Caves in Porto Cristo reveal an underground world spanning approximately 0.75 miles (1.2 km), including Lake Martel, one of Europe’s largest underground lakes. The Alfàbia Gardens in Sóller preserve Moorish hydraulic art from the 13th century, while the Roman site of Pol·lèntia in Alcúdia dates back to the 1st century BC. To the north, the s'Albufera natural park conserves 4,200 acres (1,700 hectares) of wetlands hosting over 250 species of migratory birds.
