May Festival at S’Horta

Located on the south eastern side of the island (about 15 mins drive from Cala D’or) S’ Horta (pronounced ‘SORTA’) has its village festival the last week in May. One of the highlights is the fair, which happens on the Sunday of the festival around 23rd of May.

This small inland village, which normally people just pass through on the way to Cala D’or or Porto Collom, sees its main road closed and the stall holders and exhibitions moving in. There is a stage set up in the square where night time activities of a musical nature take place.

Alcudia

Two miles inland from the beach you will find the old fortified town of Alcudia with its walls built up by King Jaume I in about 1300 A.D. The town is excellent to stroll round, and you will be spoilt for choice when deciding what to eat and drink as you take in its charming streets. There is a market held on Tuesdays and Sundays - and, as is usual with Majorcan markets in general, it is best to make an early start!

Felanitx Market - South Majorca

Felanitx is a fairly large town situated a few miles inland from Majorca’s east coast. It takes about 20 minutes or so to get there from resorts such as Cala d’Or and Porto Colom by car. In addition, there are both arranged trips and local bus services that will get you there. Felanitx market makes a great day out.
