The Voyage Privé travel expert’s opinion on Magaluf
Magaluf is the pulsating party capital of Mallorca. With the main strip that caters toward late-night antics, it’s a non-stop town for bar crawls and clubgoers. Yet Magaluf isn’t short on natural escapes. Head due south along the coast to discover emerald-hued coasts and tranquil coves.

Magaluf is famous for its vibrant nightlife, but there is so much more to this tiny Balearic town than that. The countryside surrounding the town is full of undiscovered Spanish villages, such as Calvia and Es Capdella, which are perfect for a leisurely stroll or cycling, and for the more adventurous, Santa Ponsa offers some of the best diving and snorkelling in the Mediterranean.
Of course, no one visits Magaluf without sampling the sands of the Platja de Magaluf. This 900m long stretch of beach is lapped by the beautiful crystal blue waters of the Mediterranean, providing welcome respite from the heat of the midday sun.
The beach is busiest during the months of May to June, but you can still get a tan in September and you’ll virtually have the beach to yourself.
