4 Activities to do in Majorca in September (second part)

In the second part of our post, we want to concentrate on two recommendations that will allow you to enjoy the beautiful views of Majorca. The first one includes some sports and the second is a recommendation to what we believe is the most emblematic beach on the island.

A lighthouse route through Majorca

While in Majorca, you can enjoy a beautiful route of the lighthouses that light up the island. Many of them are very old towers and true monuments overlooking the Mediterranean.

One of the best examples is the Porto Pi lighthouse, in Palma. Located next to a naval base, right in the Palma Port, it is the third oldest functioning lighthouse in the world, after the Hercules Tower in A Coruña and the Lanterna in Genova. 

The most impressive lighthouses in Majorca are the Faro de Ses Salines, which can be seen from Cabrera, and the one in Formentor, a construction that crowns the Tramuntana Mountains. Others that are also worth visiting due to their special beauty are the Aucanada lighthouse in Capdepera, and Sa Creu, in Sóller.

For cycling enthusiasts, the route from the Iberostar Son Antem hotel to the city of Palma has of approximately 22 km, but every kilometre is worth it when you consider the beautiful views and scenery of the Bay of Palma de Mallorca.

A bicycle tour around the Bay of Palma

The Bay of Palma has one of the best bicycle lanes on the island of Majorca. The boardwalk connects the city’s centre with the residential and tourist area of Can Pastilla and takes you through areas of great natural beauty.

This bike route is approximately 13 kilometres long and runs along the sea, offering typically marine scenes, diverse landscapes and people of all ages on a stroll or doing sports.

The bicycle lane is protected from transit, making it an ideal path to enjoy a relaxing bike ride or an excursion with the entire family.

Along the path, you will find small inlets, perfect for taking a dip, natural and unique areas like Es Carnatge, and lively bars and restaurants next to the sea.

You will find further information in the official website of the Son Antem hotel, as well as all the other services and activities available in this luxury golf hotel in Llucmajor.

4 Activities to do in Majorca in September (first part)

The summer holidays are almost over for many, however, for those who have waited for the end of the hottest months of the year to holiday, September is an ideal month to enjoy the calmness of the island of Majorca. At Iberostar Son Antem hotel, we want to help you choose the best activities to carry out on the island and discover its best kept secrets.  

Our golf hotel in Llucmajor has excellent connections to the entire island, making it the ideal starting point to explore the island and complete some, if not all, of the activities that we propose below:

Majorca’s emblem

The Palma Cathedral, called la Seu, is Majorca’s most emblematic building. Located facing the Bay of Palma, it welcomes thousands of contemplating visitors every year.

Wrapped by the city’s walls, the Palma Cathedral has the world’s largest Gothic rose window. This is an element that in winter offers a magical image, due to the rays of sun passing through the coloured stained glass window. 

The Cathedral is surrounded by gardens and is next to the main buildings in the centre of Palma. Its interior holds Miquel Barceló’s mural and a museum.

Visiting hours vary according to the time of year, although it is open every Saturday all year round from 10:00 to 14:15. On Sundays it is only open during mass.

Es Trenc, the essential beach

Es Trenc is one of the few remaining unspoiled beaches in Majorca and its beauty is almost intact. Many consider it to be the island’s paradise beach; the perfect place to disconnect, leave stress behind and swim in the bluest waters of the archipelago.

Es Trenc, located in the Campos municipality, is made up of four kilometres of coast declared a protected, undeveloped area. This beach is surrounded by the typical leafy Mediterranean vegetation, which holds up to 170 different bird species and small dunes.

Its fine sand is pristine and of the purest white, its shallow and transparent waters are always calm, like in a huge swimming pool. 

Es Trenc beach is very lively in the summer, so much so that visitors need to get an early start to find a parking spot. On each side of the beach you’ll find the family areas with sun loungers and sunshades, and in the centre there’s an area for nudists.

All along the beach, kiosks hold lively parties that last well into the summer nights.
