Fantastic beach, very tidy beach as well, I went 3 times and the sea was calm, My son loved it everytime we went. I also went snorking each time lots of fish to see mostly seabrem but by the rocks you see other colourful fish

I walked in the Mondragó National Park most mornings when staying at the Club Cala Barca resort - a very refreshing way to start your day, and the beaches and clifftop views are lovely!

Lovely white sand. Not too busy. Lunch at the bar on the beach was lovely. A 10 min walk from the parking to the beach. Recommended.
Heather M — Google review
!! A small reminder: please don't pollute this natural wonder. Take your trash and belongings with you, and let's help keep this magical place clean and pristine !! An amazing sea, an amazing serenity — far from the city, far from the noise of cars, surrounded by birds and accompanied only by the sound of the waves. The open water is crystal blue; you can go as deep as you want, and the clarity of the water is astonishing — you can easily see the bottom at any depth. I highly recommend visiting.” 🌊✨
Ugurcan A — Google review
Mondragó is pure magic! Strolling through its trails, I was hit by the scent of pine and the sight of turquoise waves crashing against cliffs it’s like nature’s own masterpiece. The beaches, S’Amarador and Cala Mondragó, are absolute gems for a dip or just soaking in the views. Best part? Entry is free, so you can wander this paradise without spending a cent! For a quieter visit, aim for early morning to dodge the crowds and catch the sunrise over the dunes. Oh, and did you know this park is home to over 70 species of orchids? Pack comfy shoes and a camera you’ll want to capture every moment of this Balearic beauty
Sam M — Google review
Natural de Mondragó is one of the most beautiful natural spots in Mallorca. The park has two smaller but stunning beaches with crystal-clear water, and the whole area feels calm and peaceful—even when it’s busy. A big plus: no sunbeds, so the beaches keep their natural charm. Parking can be tricky. There’s a large paid lot, or you might find free street parking nearby—but come early, as spaces fill up fast. The biggest downside is the public toilet—it technically exists, but it’s in terrible condition, so don’t count on it. Still, for the scenery and the experience, Mondragó is absolutely worth visiting. 🏝
Cyntia P — Google review
One of our favourite beach spots in Majorca! We stayed at Playa Mondrago which was right behind this beach. It was our favourite part of Majorca, would recommend hiring a car if you can so you can also do day trips. Be vigilant with driving as some roads are quite narrow in Majorca 😅

Es Trenc, located 11km south of Campos in Mallorca, is a family-friendly beach with clear and shallow waters ideal for swimming. This pristine 5km stretch of unspoilt sand consists of Es Trenc and Platja de Sa Rapita. The beach features soft dunes, white sand, and crystal-clear water, making it one of the most beautiful dune beaches in Mallorca. However, it can get crowded during the summer months.
Amazing beach with shallow turquoise waters. Visited by boat and it was amazing to swim in such a beautifull waters. Plenty of space to anchor in August. We stayed over night and it was bit bumpy
Ondrej K — Google review
Beautiful beach with shallow turquoise waters, in a protected area. In April it was very dirty under piles of algae. And they collect 5 euro for parking, no matter if you want to stay 1 hour or all day. Also, the last 2 km of road is very narrow. In summer, when the traffic is heavy, it won't be fun.
Annice W — Google review
A very beautiful and interesting beach. But it doesn't deserve all five stars for several reasons. The first thing to pay is to enter the parking lot. Secondly, black algae collects in some parts of the water. Third, there is only one small modest bar where you can buy a drink or a snack. But in general, the water is clear, clean, shallow for children and very pleasant for swimming. Yachts are anchored not far from the coast, which means that many people come here to swim. The beach is clean and spacious, so there are no big crowds. In my opinion, it is worth taking the time to come for two or three hours and then go to the next beach.
Sanja D — Google review
A very nice long sandy beach, during the day surely very crowded in August. We were there in the evening (a very good spot for sunsets), then it was bearable. Parking fee is 5 euros for cars, no matter when you arrive, and the parking lot closes at 9 p.m. The access road to the parking lot is a long narrow street with a lot of oncoming traffic. The toilets at the beach entrance were the most disgusting thing I have ever experienced in my life – filthier than at any festival. Supposedly the place is a nature reserve, but there is a lot of trash lying around.
Anja B — Google review
Very beautiful beach with a large parking lot 3 minutes from the beach with a fixed fee of €8 for a day, for those who say that the road to the parking lot is narrow and that parking is expensive, I don't know what world you live in.
Andrei B — Google review
For the end of October we found this beach very dirty. If you don’t want to pay the €8 for parking, you can park for free in Colonia Saint Jordi, on Av. Primavera, on the white lines and then walk to the beach. But better choose the more beautiful beaches from the south of the island, like Cala Santanyi, Llombards or Moro.
Adrian T — Google review
Don’t waste time on your trip to visit this beach. There are many beaches with clear water that you don’t have to pay for parking. Also this beach has absolutely no shade anywhere. No showers, no bathroom, no changing rooms. When I visited the amount of seaweed made the water like mud.
Rwdi — Google review
you don't have showers. you don't have toilets. parking is 8€ all day and extremely hot. it is recommended to take an umbrella and drinking water. in return the beach is very beautiful with a smooth entrance and crystal clear water.

Palma Aquarium, located near the airport and opened in 2007, boasts the largest live coral collection in Europe. The aquarium features over 700 types of creatures, including impressive sand tiger sharks in the 'Big Blue' tank with three million liters of water. With more than 55 aquariums and 8000 fish from around the world, it offers an ideal family day out.
Wow, what an amazing visit we had! I was expecting this to be a short 45-minute visit with just enough to see. It turned out to be a full experience lasting a few hours! The whole story is developing nicely, and there are plenty of species to see and learn about. I enjoyed the Jungle the most, as it was an outside adventure and looked amazing! I recommend this as a must-see in Palma!
Boris B — Google review
I recommend to get here early we were there at 09H45 and got straight in. When we left there were huge queues. It's a very good aquarium, lots to look at and do. I only rated it 4 stars as we missed the Mediterranean gardens and went straight to the jungle, the staff were ushering families that way but not us. The shark tank is good but its sad to see theese beautiful animals in captivity. All accessible for wheelchair users its a great place to visit for a few hours. I recommend going early on a rainy day to kill a few hours
Anthony M — Google review
On Monday, we visited the Palma Aquarium on the coach which is included in the price (we booked through Jet2, who are based in the hotel) and had an absolutely fantastic day! There’s so much to see and do — and we even did one of the extras: the bottom glass boat ride in the shark tank. It was €12 each and definitely worth it! I believe under 3s go free (but double check just in case). My little one had a fantastic day. It is one of the best aquariums I have been to there is so much to do for all ages! Staff were lovely and helpful throughout the day!
Hannah S — Google review
We visited Palma Aquarium in Mallorca for the first time, and overall, it was a nice experience. The atmosphere is pleasant, and the place is well organized. The highlight for us was definitely the shark tank – it was fascinating to see them up close! The ticket also included a 3D cinema with a short film about whales that lasts around 10–15 minutes, which was interesting and enjoyable, especially for kids. I would recommend visiting with young children, as there are many different species of fish and sea creatures to see. The only downside is the ticket price, which I find quite expensive considering you can go through the entire aquarium in less than an hour.
Petar P — Google review
Beautiful Aquarium. Its nice place to spend time with family and children. Clean easy to navigate in areal. A plenty of beautiful and colorful fish and corals from different seas. Plus is as well rainforest garden and medittarean garden. There are options for snack and food in reasonable prices. Clean and tidy toilets. We booked tickets online and went around 11.00 on weekday so there wasn t mmy people . Ticket price its worth it . Thank you for nice spend day.
Dalibor D — Google review
30 Euros for adults but there are some package deals on their website that include some of the 'extras' like a shark boat or 3D cinema etc. We opted for straight entry for 3 adult tickets and received ten Euros off. It's a quality aquarium kept spotlessly clean and tidy. There are lots and lots of small to medium sized viewing tanks as you wander an obvious route. The glass magnifies them so you get to appreciate the colours and detail and they have a superb selection. Initially its very dark. So much so that you can easily bump into people but then your eyes eventually adjust. The more popular tanks have a bit of a wait to get to the front as you would expect but totally worth it. Even the souvenir shop at the end has some really good stuff!
Tommi R — Google review
Enjoyed the aquarium but it's way too expensive for the time I spent walking around everything (90 mins). No turtles on display but the two big tanks were amazing, the informative information was very good. More aimed at children in general and trying to upsell photographs, gifts from the shop which is disappointing.
Jon H — Google review
Very well preserved Aquarium with a lot to explore, extra activities and plenty of fun to have for the kids. Offering varied themes even a jungle and generous outside space to wonder around or to just take a break and have a bite to eat. It is a bit expensive but give the experience worth it and if you come in the afternoon you can benefit from a online ticketing discount.

Ferrocarril de Sóller - Estació de Sóller

Mentioned on 
3 lists 
Heritage railroad
Tours
The Ferrocarril de Sóller is a vintage electric tram that has been operating daily since its establishment in 1912. The train offers a scenic trip through Mallorcan landscape from Palma to the seaside town of Soller, which boasts a charming harbor and beach. While it may be considered an expensive tourist attraction, the efforts to preserve its rustic old-world charm have been successful. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, trains only run once daily and return in late afternoon.
Get the ticket on their official website, consider the combo ticket for train and tram. The train takes you to Sóller, the tram can then be taken to Port de Sóller. If you book early, you can leave Palma early, and split your time properly between Sóller and the port. We had the train at 3pm and return at 7.30pm. Still worked out nicely to enjoy dinner at the port and also spent half an hour in Sóller before returning to Palma. The train and tram ride pass through beautiful landscapes. Do watch your belongings as it is an activity pickpockets target.
Steve L — Google review
Soller is a beautiful sea side town with several small local shops and restaurants. Its relaxing to just walk around, take in the beautiful views, enjoy the fresh air. We took the train into town, while the train was very full of people, it was a nice ride into town. Might be less crowded earlier. Great way to spend a day, enjoy a lunch and wander in and out of the shops. (It wasnt loaded with the shirt shops and souvenirs)
Joan C — Google review
We had a lovely time catching the train from Palma to Soller. I would recommend purchasing your tickets in advance and getting to the station at least 30 minutes before the train is due if you want to sit together. People queue on the platform up to an hour before departure time. We arrived to get the 12 midday train but there were no tickets so we had to wait until 1.30pm which was fine. The train takes around an hour and the route is very scenic, it is an old wooden train. It was a really pleasant trip. There are many opportunities for great photos and videos along the way, through olives groves and mountain views. Would recommend, as it is a lovely trip. We were told by friends after that is is more cost effective to get the train there and the bus back, but we had already purchased return tickets. Once at Soller, you can get the tram down to the Port which was equally lovely.
Katie B — Google review
This was a lovely excursion and the views were beautiful. You het the train from Palma the the tram down to Port Soller. Recommend buying tickets in advance as its very busy, however this is pointless for the trams as its a free for all. We were OK going down to the port but returning was awful! We were squashed on like sardines! There didn't seem to be anyone really stopping people from squeezing on! The experience was worth doing but make sure you don't value your personal space! We drive there later in the week and the views were better and space wasn't an issue. But we can say we've done it. The towns were beautiful though and definitely worth visiting.
Felicity B — Google review
Expensice but did not regret doing it. The train is slow, if you have other means of going to Soller you could just pay 10 euro from the tram to the port to get some of the experience. I would look at the timetable as the trains to and from Palma only runs at specific times. No need to buy tickets in advance for the train or tram, you can do it once you're on it.
Wing C — Google review
The Sóller tram is a lovely and charming experience that we truly enjoyed. However, it's important to note that it gets extremely crowded. The current frequency of the trams doesn't seem sufficient to handle the massive volume of tourists, leading to significant congestion and wait times.
Kate P — Google review
The train and tram ride from Palma to Port de Sóller offers a nostalgic journey through Mallorca’s stunning countryside. The historic wooden train, in service since 1912, travels 27 km through the Serra de Tramuntana, passing tunnels, bridges, and citrus groves. At Sóller, passengers transfer to a charming 1913 electric tram that winds through the town and down to the scenic harbor. Originally built to transport oranges, the route is now a beloved attraction. With vintage carriages and panoramic views, this ride combines history, culture, and natural beauty in one unforgettable experience.
Tony S — Google review
Travelled by Train from Palma to Sóller and to the Port by Tram. Both places worth a couple or three hours. On returning to Sóller Train station, I found, in the old station building a free exhibition of the works of Picasso and Miro. There were great views from both the Train and the Tram.

Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca

Mentioned on 
+20 other lists 
Cathedral
Sights & Landmarks
The Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca, also known as La Seu, is a stunning Gothic edifice that overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. This architectural marvel was constructed over several centuries and showcases a blend of Moorish, Gothic, and Modernist influences. The cathedral features one of the largest rose windows in the world, known as the Gothic eye, which fills its interior with an ethereal light during morning hours.
Historical cathedral, research hours and buy your tickets in advance. Don't be surprised to see street vendors on the grounds. The number 25 bus drops you off very close and the city center is just behind it. Cobblestone so watch you footing. Fun place to walk around, even if you don't buy tickets to go inside. Enjoy!
Glen M — Google review
When I visited Mallorca, seeing the Catedral-Basílica de Santa María (La Seu) was non-negotiable, and I’m so glad I went. It is one of the most stunning Gothic buildings I have ever seen. What really blew me away was its dramatic location—it sits right on the edge of the old city walls overlooking the sea, and the sheer scale of the architecture is breathtaking from the moment you approach it. I spent a long time just admiring the exterior. Inside, it was all about the light. The most famous feature is the enormous rose window, often called "The Gothic Eye." If you can time your visit right, the way the light streams through the glass and illuminates the massive, airy interior is just magical. I was also really interested to see the modernist input by Antoni Gaudí near the altar—it adds a fascinating, unexpected touch to the medieval space. Honestly, if you are in Palma, you absolutely have to schedule time for this. It’s not just a beautiful church; it’s a powerful piece of art and history that truly defines the city skyline.
Kyle J — Google review
We entered here with no expectations but the building definitely implies something spectacular inside. It does not disappoint. It is very busy inside but there is peace and tranquility to be found. You can have a quiet moment of reflection and find out so much fascinating history.

A must-visit in Palma — the £10 (approx. €10) entry fee is genuinely worth it. The Cathedral of Mallorca delivers everything you hope for: breathtaking architecture, rich history, and a serene atmosphere that makes it much more than just another tourist stop. From the moment you step in, the grandeur of the Gothic nave and the soaring stained glass windows grab your attention. Even on the standard ticket (which you noted is the cheapest option), you’re able to take in the key highlights — no hidden upsell required to appreciate the core experience. The cost-to-value ratio is excellent. The staff were courteous and helpful, and the location in Palma de Mallorca is hard to beat. If you’re in the area, set aside at least an hour. Bring your camera, perhaps a bit of quiet reflection time, and enjoy one of the most emblematic buildings in the Mediterranean. Highly recommended — excellent value, well preserved and beautifully presented.
Bertie M — Google review
It’s our first time in Mallorca, and we immediately visited the Cathedral of Santa Maria, which is very close to our accommodation. The place is beautiful and offers a truly special experience. There are always many tourists around, but that only shows how popular and worthwhile this location is. The cathedral itself is impressive, monumental, and wonderfully preserved. The view from it is even more stunning – you can see the entire marina with boats and large cruise ships, creating an incredible panorama and perfect photo opportunities. Overall, a definite recommendation for anyone visiting Mallorca. One of the places you simply shouldn’t miss!
Petar P — Google review
Beside being a very important religious place, It is a great piece of architecture. It took 400 years to complete it. The famous architect Antoni Gaudi also contributes a lot. This beautiful Roman Catholic Church is located in the heart of Mallorca opposite seashore. it is the most visited place in Mallorca. The interior of Cathedral is amazing. The beautiful sculptures and stained colorful glass windows are worth seeing. The ambiance inside is very serene. The entry fee is 9 Euros. Not to be missed...

The Catedral-Basílica de Santa María de Mallorca is absolutely breathtaking an architectural masterpiece and a must-visit in Palma. The interior is stunning, filled with incredible light, color, and detail that truly leave you in awe. Tickets must be purchased online, which is very easy to do, and cost €10 per person. well worth it for the experience. Whether you’re interested in history, architecture, or just want to take in one of the most beautiful spots on the island, this cathedral is unforgettable.
Valerie A — Google review
Absolutely a beautiful and stunning place to visit. It looks spectacular when you are outside looking at it and the artificial lake/park around it make it scenic. You have to buy the ticket online and they do limit the number of people entering so it does not seem overwhelming inside. There is another museum behind the cathedral that you can visit for a nominal fee and it is highly recommended as well. You will spend 2-3 hours here.

Bellver Castle is a truly impressive sight. We arrived a bit late and missed the chance to go inside (it closes at 7pm in the summer), but even from the outside, the circular Gothic architecture is stunning. The real highlight, though, is the location. Situated on a hilltop, the castle offers an absolutely breathtaking panoramic view of Palma and its bay. It's the perfect spot to capture some incredible photos and just take in the beauty of the area. It's worth the trip up the hill just for the views alone.

Absolutely amazing castle. Great museums in multiple languages. It's a step walk up there and lots of climbing. But well worth it. An historic monument that Palma can be very proud of. Normally only 4 euro entrance fee (bargain), but free on Sunday (even better bargain!!). Absolutely recommended.

Castell de Bellver, whose name literally translates to 'beautiful view' in old Catalan, is an absolute must-see when visiting Palma. Its unique circular Gothic design—the only one of its kind in Spain—sets it apart immediately. Perched on a forested hill about three kilometers west of the city center, the castle offers a stunning 360-degree panorama of the entire Bay of Palma, the city's harbor, and the distant Tramuntana mountains. The main draw is walking the rooftop battlements, where you can fully appreciate the scale of the structure and the vistas. Inside, the central circular courtyard is a masterpiece of medieval architecture, and the ground floor houses the City History Museum. Beyond its royal history, the castle served as a military prison for centuries, adding a layer of dramatic history. While getting up the hill requires a little effort (or a bus ride), the payoff in views and historical significance makes it well worth the trip.

Castell de Bellver – A Panoramic Gem Above Palma We visited Castell de Bellver as part of our 48-hour City Sightseeing hop-on hop-off bus tour, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our Palma itinerary. The bus dropped us right near the entrance, making access effortless and scenic—winding through pine-covered hills with glimpses of the sea. The castle itself is a rare circular fortress with Gothic architecture and a commanding view over the Bay of Palma. Its unique design and elevated position make it feel like a watchtower over centuries of history. Inside, the museum offers a compact but rich narrative of Palma’s past, and the central courtyard is a peaceful spot to pause and soak in the atmosphere. What truly stood out was the panoramic terrace—360° views that stretch from the Tramuntana mountains to the cathedral and port. It’s a photographer’s dream and a moment of quiet majesty above the bustle below. Entry was included with our bus ticket, which made the experience feel even more seamless and well-integrated. If you’re doing the hop-on hop-off tour, this stop is absolutely worth it—both for the history and the views.

For €4 it is great value. This is a truly memorable visit. Situated atop a wooded hill just outside Palma, the Castell de Bellver offers sweeping panoramic views of the city, the bay and the Mediterranean—a fitting interpretation of its name, which translates as “beautiful view”. The castle itself is remarkable. Built around 1300–1310 for King James II of Mallorca, it stands as one of the few circular-plan castles in Europe and certainly the only one of its kind in Spain. Wandering the interior courtyard, ramparts and the keep you can really sense its mix of royal residence and fortress. Inside you’ll also find a well-curated city history museum, providing insights into Palma’s evolution from ancient times to the present day. The forest around the castle adds a relaxing walk-up through pine trees, making arrival feel more like an experience rather than just a stop. A few practical notes: Be prepared for some uphill walking if you approach on foot or via public transport. Visit during late afternoon if possible—the golden light enhances the castle’s stonework and the views-out become especially atmospheric. Allow enough time to explore both the exterior terrace and the museum inside. Check opening hours in advance (note: Mondays may be closed) and consider a guided tour to appreciate the architecture and history more fully.

As castles go I'd say this is generally a nice castle. 4 stars for 2 reasons....1) we couldn't access the tallest tower and nobody mentioned that. Just imagine the views... 2) I'd have loved to understand more about the castle but all the info boards were in spanish only (yes I know, its in Mallorca but its a tourist destination....help the tourists out!)....yes, technology allows translation easy enough but its the inconvenience. Anyway, the castle is set within a large park area full of trails, roads and lots of steps. I probably would not recommend tackling this place if you aren't too steady on your feet or have a wheelchair. We entered from the East side nearest the church. The steps up to the castle got the heart rate up for sure. We noticed lots of joggers using the park and bounding up the steps. We also noticed lots of tourists with tight tops looking a bit sweaty....loose clothing recommended. See pics for some idea of the mountainous ascent. Anyway, there's lots to see in the castle. Mostly statues. There was a wedding taking place when we were there. What a lovely setting indeed. One of the best part of visiting this castle was the incredible circular, almost Colosseum like central structure but beyond that the views. Simply stunning in all directions. Go on a clear day! Aside from that I wish we'd had more time to explore the grounds around the castle. Overall if you fancy taking a break away from the busy centre of Palma, then take a bus or taxi ( it takes no time from the centre) and enjoy taking in some breathtaking views and a wonderful piece of history.

Ate too much on this trip? Take a walk from the city center & climb up the endless stairs. You will find a treasure you did not know you were looking for. The only annoying thing is, once you arrive after that many stairs, they ask you to walk another a couple hundred meters to get a ticket. While walking over, cursing “ it better be worth it” , and it is. There is a museum, excellent views, not too many people unlike the Catedral, the ticket is only 4 euros. Now you feel better and thinking, you accomplished something today, and you did in a way ❤️

Marvelous castle settle on top of a hill with wonderful views of the city, the harbour and the sea. There's a parking place just in front of the entrance. Inside the castle there's a museum with the history of the castle , from the first human settlements till the last use like a jail in the past century. Very well preserved, so clean all around. A place to visit for it's importance in the history and because the surrounding views

Platja de Ses Illetes is a stunning white-sand beach located on a narrow strip of land with breathtaking sunset views and luxurious boats docked nearby. It is known for being the destination where extravagant superyachts bring their guests to enjoy exquisite seafood and fine wine at the exclusive beach club Juan y Andrea. In contrast, El Tiburon, a laid-back beach shack, offers a more casual atmosphere with refreshing Caipirinhas.
I've never seen a beach like this before! The water is a stunning turquoise blue — absolutely beautiful. So peaceful and quiet. Just lying down and doing nothing is the best way to enjoy it. Truly amazing. You must visit this place!

Cala Bassa Beach

Beach
Outdoor Activities
Cala Bassa Beach is a sophisticated beach club with water sports, shaded seating, and five dining options. The sprawling space offers nine different hangouts, each adapting to its surroundings. The beach itself is a golden horseshoe of blinding loveliness with views across to the inaccessible Illa Conillera. It's popular among families with children due to its shallow waters and opportunities for strolling around the neighborhood.
Ibiza has a lot of beaches and most of them are oases of natural beauty, this one is the top of the island. I don't know how long I would have to spend here to be satisfied with this place. Nature is perfectly intertwined with this part of the island and creates such an idyllic image of a Mediterranean paradise. It is worth taking a path along the coastline, apart from sunbathing, and then you will connect spiritually with this place, and believe me, it is amazing!
Lucca T — Google review
We spent a full day at CBbC (Cala Bassa Beach Club) and absolutely loved it. The beach setup is beautifully designed, with comfortable sunbeds and Balinese beds spread out under the shade of pine trees, giving it a very relaxed yet luxurious feel. The service was excellent — our waiters were very friendly, always attentive, and served us with a genuine smile, which made us feel very welcome. They regularly checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. The beach itself is stunning, with soft sand and crystal-clear turquoise water. It’s shallow and calm, perfect for swimming or just cooling off. We spent hours in the water, and it really is one of the nicest swimming spots we’ve visited in Ibiza. The atmosphere is lively but still classy. There’s good music playing, and a mix of families, groups of friends, and couples — so it feels vibrant without being a party scene. On the downside, it does get very crowded, especially on weekends in July, so I definitely recommend booking your beds in advance if you want a good spot. It is also quite expensive, both for the beds and the food and drinks, so be prepared for higher prices than at a typical beach bar. However, the quality of the experience makes it worth it if you’re looking for a special beach day. We ordered a mix of dishes — steaks, sushi, and salads — and everything was delicious and nicely presented. The cocktails were also great and beautifully served. Despite the crowds and the prices, we had a fantastic day and felt it was totally worth it. We will definitely come back again!

❤️🙏I visited a beautiful sandy beach – clean and really pleasant. During the summer season it gets quite crowded, but it’s full of life and color. There are many vendors offering all kinds of things, including people making braids right on the spot. The sand is super soft, perfect for relaxing or walking barefoot, and the water is fairly clear. You can even spot lots of little fish swimming around – and sometimes even stingrays! A lively and charming place to enjoy the sea and the summer vibe.☀️🫧 I been there couple years ago but In different time and was better mostly because was less people ☺️😆

Platges de Comte is absolutely breathtaking — one of the most beautiful beaches in Ibiza! The water is unbelievably clear and shimmers in every shade of blue and turquoise, perfect for swimming and snorkeling. The surrounding rocky cliffs and small coves add to the stunning natural scenery. It’s also one of the best spots on the island to watch the sunset — truly unforgettable. The vibe is chilled yet lively, and there are a couple of great beach bars where you can enjoy a cocktail or a delicious meal while soaking in the views. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or just take in the beauty, Platges de Comte is a must-visit for any Ibiza itinerary.

There is two great restaurants with so quality food and drink... It's not so expensive... There is lot of young people... One of the nicest sunset on the island... Great view... All recommendations for visit and spend all day if you are at Ibiza 👌

Parking was easy to find and conveniently close to the beach, which was a great start. However, the experience at Ashram Restaurant wasn’t ideal – prices are quite high, and because many people are waiting for a table, you feel rushed to finish your meal and leave quickly. Finding a free sunbed on the beach is nearly impossible, so I definitely recommend bringing your own umbrella and a good book – you’ll likely be sitting on the sand. That said, the sea is absolutely stunning – honestly, one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen. Of course, it’s very crowded, so I’m not sure July is the best time to visit. Still, if you’re looking for crystal-clear water, this place is hard to beat.

Castell de Dénia

Mentioned on

Castle
Sights & Landmarks
Castell de Dénia is a picturesque castle by the water, dating back to the 11th and 12th centuries. It offers a glimpse into history with artifacts on display, showcasing its Greek, Roman, Moorish, and Spanish influences. The climb to the top rewards visitors with stunning views of Denia and the mountains. While exploring the castle's ruins, visitors can also enjoy a café at the top.
Worth a visit, but make sure to go later in the afternoon otherwise you’ll be baked in the scorching sun. Beautiful views to the surroundings; not much of a castle, more outer remains. A governor’s palace location is a beautiful highest spot of the castle with views to the sea. Visit to the castle requires a certain level of physical fitness and preferably comfortable shoes, at least not heels, so plan accordingly.

Interesting information (mostly in Spanish) about the various stages of adaptation of the castle from its beginnings and most recently a palace. Worth a visit. Not much shade so morning or evening visit recommended. Plenty of (paid) parking in the vicinity. Good location for a walk around old town after. Plenty of exercise walking up and down the many steps and slopes to stretch those legs after a few days relaxing on the beaches.

Beautiful walk around the castle, lovely pit stop cafe and prices are great. Views are wonderful and well worth the few euros entry fee to explore the castle grounds. Coffee and cake are a must, visit is most definitely recommended, the surrounding streets with the quaint spainish houses are lovely to also explore.

Interesting place. €2 for seniors. There is a fairly steep tarmacced slope after the entrance, there are other routes up to the top, but steep and very uneven stone paths. Lots of boards with the history around. Lots of different areas to explore including the walls, so if you want to do it all, you'll need a lot of time.Views are good of the surrounding areas. Once outside, there is also a tunnel that runs underneath the castle which is free.

Definitely worth a visit, you will be sweating on a hot day, even if you take the easy road route up to the top. We opted for the hard more but scenic and cultural route making sure we took our time as it was 35deg. Entry is €3 for an adult and €2 for over 65's, the ticket man spoke perfect English and was very helpful. When you make it to the top the views are beautiful with harbour and coastal views. There is a small cafe at the top with a lovely seating area under pine trees, it does close mid afternoon so take a drinknifnyour going after 1400. We walked down the easy route and walked the castle tunnel that runs under the castle, this is free to enter. We parked down at the port car park, reasonably priced at around a €1 and hour and its only 10 mins from the castle.

A good uphill walk to a once thriving castle, little remains and all signs with history in Spanish, thankfully Google Translate helped tremendously. But you can see the history of the place it's mott and bailey,and footprints of the houses. Great views over Denia and harbour,watching the Ibiza ferry's come in. Lovely little cafe in castle at very reasonable price,also toilets,but these are a bit dilapidated.

Mundomar also features entertaining shows and a glass bottom boat ride for a memorable experience.

What a special place. So much fun! Negatives, its a little pricey, and they dont have a vast amount of animals. The pros, wow, the shows are phenomenal, especially the dolphin show. Amazing, just amazing. Yes its pricey, but honestly the shows itself make it worth it! Get over there. €20 cash or €17 (paid online) to touch a dolphin and have a photo (included) is such amazing value. You wont find better. So while its not a cheap day out, it's 100% worth it, and id go back again, and again.

Pretty cool. We did combine tickets with Aqualandia. So we visited this place in the morning. We arrived about half past 10 which gave us time to look around and the watch the parrot show. Which was very informative. 2 of the parrots did not listen to the trainers and decided they were staying out just jumping on the rope. After that we headed to the sea lion show to watch some very happy sea lions and then the dolphin show, which has 8 dolphins doing tricks. The place is small so wouldn't recommend spending the whole day there as you can watch all the shows and see all the other animals in around 3 hours. Prices for photos with animals is around €20 euros I recommended paying for these before you enter the park.

Platja de Llevant is an urban public beach in Benidorm, known for its recreational waters, lifeguards, showers, lounge chairs, and volleyball nets. Despite not having the quaint charm of a secluded cove, it is a beloved Blue Flag bay with golden shores and crystal-clear waters. This popular beach offers a bustling atmosphere and stunning views of the Mediterranean sea. During peak season, it can get crowded as visitors flock to enjoy the gentle waves and clean sandy shores.
Very clean, well maintained, public sandy beach. It felt safe, and people were civilized. Great background with the tall buildings in the back. There are plenty of restaurants on the shoreside. There are plenty of sunbeds to rent. Lifeguards on watch. The water is not too steep.

I visited Platja de Llevant in Benidorm at the end of December, and the weather was surprisingly warm, not hot enough for a swim, but perfect to enjoy the sun and a long walk by the sea. The sky was clear, the water shimmered in deep blue tones, and the whole promenade was lively even in winter. Historically, Platja de Llevant has been one of the main symbols of Benidorm’s transformation. In the 1950s, this small fishing village began turning into one of Europe’s most famous seaside resorts, and this beach became the heart of that change, lined with hotels, cafés, and palm trees that still define the skyline today.

The beach is absolutely stunning, with its picturesque scenery that instantly captivates anyone who visits. The golden sand is soft and inviting, creating a perfect contrast against the deep blue sky. The ocean itself is crystal clear, reflecting the sunlight in shimmering patterns that dance across the water. The waves are gentle and soothing, making the beach a tranquil spot to relax and enjoy nature’s beauty. One of the highlights of this beach is the remarkably clean water. It’s so clear that you can see the seabed even from the shore, with fish occasionally visible as they swim by. The cleanliness of the water makes it perfect for swimming, wading, or just floating on the surface, letting the gentle waves carry you. In addition to the natural beauty, the beach offers convenient amenities like chair and sun umbrella rentals. This allows you to fully enjoy your time there without having to bring your own gear. You can easily rent a comfortable chair and a large umbrella to provide shade, making your day at the beach even more relaxing. Overall, the combination of breathtaking beauty and thoughtful conveniences makes this beach a perfect getaway.

What wonderful days we had at the beach, strolling through its streets, trying out restaurants, watching the sunrise, or walking at night while enjoying the nightlife. We’d wake up early to enjoy the sea and walk along the sand. Each day was unique and amazing! Creating human connections, observing and learning about their lifestyle and culture made the experience even more enriching.

Oceanogràfic València

Mentioned on

Aquarium
Nature & Parks
Oceanogràfic is a major attraction located within the City of Arts and Sciences in Valencia, Spain. It is Europe's largest marine park, featuring over 20,000 creatures from 650 different species. The aquarium showcases marine life from various ecosystems around the world, offering visitors an immersive experience through its diverse exhibits.
This place is awesome, so much things to see. I recommend take some warm clothes, as in arctic area is 17C or even colder so wearing some a jacket is a must, there are plenty of food to try, also there are 3 shows daily with dolphins, apx 20minut each, so check the time for the show. Most of the places has outer and inner parts so it is great to check the outer parts and then take elevator or stairs and check what's under the ground. Overall me and my 4yo toddler has enjoyed the the 3.5 hour long tour. It is definitely worth a try. P.S. sometimes, especially on holidays or weekends the place is crowded and the queue for the ticket is huge, so I recommend to buy tickets online as there is no difference.
Ruben T — Google review
Nice place, huge effort from the team. Great selection of animals etc. Awesome aquariums. The one from Tenerife is the leader, in my opinion. The food inside quality should be improved. The value for money is disappointing. Dishes hot in the exterior and almost frozen in the middle. The security staff should help the clients; in our case, they had long personal discussions, ignoring the visitors.
Horea — Google review
It was worth it. Truly amazing! Impressive building with aquarium and dolphin show. You should be here! I received support and guidance when I needed. If You wish to see dolphin show please make sure that you arrive 10 minutes earlier and take a seat because workers try to ensure health and safety for everyone. If you decide to eat dinner here then it's expensive and less choices. Public toilets are available here.
Guntars — Google review
The L'Oceanogràfic is one of Valencia's biggest attractions, a true showcase. The ticket price seemed high for our budget, but after entering and seeing these wonders, I realized it was a bargain. The animals look well-cared for and have plenty of space. The dolphin arena is a real gem. I felt the dolphins were happy; you could see their bond with their trainers, and the instructor focused on educating people about these magnificent animals and their health. Initially, I thought the area was small and would be a quick tour, but it turned out that the coolest aquariums and trails are underground, pleasantly cool (good for hot weather). It was amazing to see the belugas and underwater passages with sharks and other creatures overhead, within arm's reach. I felt the magic of this place the entire time, like a child. The photos capture it perfectly! You can buy a combined ticket to the facilities in the city of science, but THIS is a gem and I recommend it wholeheartedly.
Natalia T — Google review
I liked the marine animals, beautiful buildings with modern architecture. Arrows on the floor were useful to help you follow a predefined route, to easily go through all the dark rooms with aquariums. I liked the call for everyone to get involved and make changes for a better planet. The dolphin show was a bit boring, a few jumps, swimming with 2 employees and that's it. I've seen better shows at dolphinariums. If you want a good seat go there with many minutes before the show.
Nico — Google review
This place was awesome. Lots of fish. We even saw whales a crocodile penguins. Jellyfish and lots of other animals and exciting things to see. I would definitely go again as you couldn’t see from the photos there is a lot to see and a lot to do it does cost. It cost us €38 per person. I don’t know what that will be for people looking at this in a few years time. But you can spend three or four hours in there easy And if you come with children, there is plenty of things for them to jump a boat undo ice cream shops. There’s a restaurant in there. There is play areas for kids as well.
Travel L — Google review
Went with the vision this would probably rate as a childrens zoo. Not at all it was amazing. Such a different perspective of the sea creatures which interacted with you as you passed along underwater tunnels. Clean, good food, exceptional staff and most of all the most hilarious penguins I've ever met. Prepare to be intrigued, delighted and entertained.
Mandy M — Google review
I recently visited Oceanogràfic in Valencia, and it was an amazing experience that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. The aquarium is beautifully designed, easy to explore, and filled with an impressive variety of marine life from all around the world. Out of all the exhibits, the dolphins and sea lions were definitely the highlights of my visit. Watching the dolphins was truly unforgettable — they were energetic, playful, and clearly well-cared for, and their interactions with the trainers made the experience both educational and entertaining. The sea lions were equally captivating, with their curious personalities and lively behaviour. I could have spent hours watching them glide through the water and interact with each other. The whole place feels very immersive, and the layout allows you to get close to the animals without feeling crowded or rushed. The staff were friendly and helpful, and everything was well-maintained and clean, from the walkways to the viewing areas. Whether you’re visiting as a family, a couple, or even on your own, there’s plenty to enjoy and learn. Overall, Oceanogràfic offers a wonderful mix of entertainment and education, and I would definitely recommend it to others looking for a memorable day out.

Science museum

The Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias is a cutting-edge science complex located in a beautifully landscaped park. It features a large aquarium, an IMAX cinema, and various cultural and scientific institutions.
The river that runs through Valencia was redirected, and the kilos of dry River bed have been turned into Parkland. This collection of buildings is one of the highlights of this redevelopment and iconic buildings of contemporary architecture, dedicated to the sciences and arts. The Central pools remind you that this area used to be a river And also offer relief from the heat when the wind blows across them. The collection of buildings are extraordinary and Howes and aquarium and IMAX Theatre Gardens and museums. The Bridge, which crosses the drive of the bed is also iconic and a beautiful addition to this amazing architectural area.A wonderful place to wander through and visit some of these exquisite places.

The architecture is amazing and is covered in nature. You can even see and hear parrots in the trees and it's beautiful. It's a brilliant place to walk around and explore but one thing which wasn't the best was the cost to go inside. I read other reviews and some people said how it isn't worth paying the money to go inside and I can agree with them. If you want to, your more than welcome to pay the money to go inside but I wouldn't. Overall, amazing place to go and there's a bus which goes right up to the museum which was very helpful.
Millie L — Google review
We visited the Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias in Valencia today (October), and it was a wonderful experience even without going inside the buildings. The weather was perfect, sunny but not too hot, and there were fewer people around, which made it peaceful to stroll through and take photos. The modern architecture is stunning, and the reflections on the water create a beautiful, almost futuristic atmosphere. Definitely worth visiting, even just to enjoy the walk and the views.
Lissette I — Google review
We were there on a Saturday night. It was very nice to walk around. The architecture was fascinating and the vibe was just very good. A nice place to stroll around and it was super easy to get there from the city center. And don’t forget to check out the whisper chamber! It was very cool!!!
Kawisara T — Google review
The City of Arts and Sciences is a futuristic destination in Valencia, well worth a visit. It's a large area encompassing many buildings, of which the oceanarium is, in my opinion, the most beautiful and highly recommended. Even without tickets, it's still worth seeing the buildings from the outside, although you should be careful with the sun as the main promenades are uncovered. However, there's a garden and a park along the entire length, so I recommend exploring those paths.
Natalia T — Google review
A spectacular place where science comes to life through interactive experiences, and architecture itself becomes art. The building is stunning — futuristic, full of light, and truly one of Valencia’s modern landmarks. Exhibits are well organized and engaging for all ages, from hands-on experiments to immersive multimedia displays. A space that inspires curiosity and reminds you how beautiful knowledge can be.

Beautiful architecture and a great place to go for a stroll at any time of day. Very nice and colourful at night. Also lots of exhibits museums and Europe’s largest aquarium.
Eric S — Google review
We did the whole Combination, Museum, Cinema and the Oceanographic Park! Booked a combined ticket in advance which I would recommend! The Museum is a must for every person that’s interested in science/ the human body! We are two medstudents and we loved it but it’s definitely something children would love as well! The Movie is just an experience for the eyes, the big round screen is unique and therefore very interesting! The Seaanimals are very nice to watch. However, might be the case that they have multiple certifications but to have beluga whales in an Aquarium and Dolphines for a show, even if it isn’t as disciplined as some other shows, isn’t really acceptable. We on purpose didn’t go to the show and we read afterwards some articles which stated the show is very dolphins friendly and the circumstances are far from shows at Seaworld etc. but we heard the crowd from far and Dolphines are very intelligent and sensitive animals which is why that’s not acceptable. Just because they don’t treat the Dolphines as cruel as others, doesn’t mean it’s not cruel. And to keep them and even bigger animals, belugas, in a tank of water when normally they would wander thousands of miles in the ocean just makes me very sad. And I am aware, that they also support the ecosystem sea in a way but I would like to see at least no Dolphines and Whales in Tanks way to small for their needs. We won’t be coming back, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend anyone going there. The only case I would go back is probably with kids, for educational purposes. However, still 3 Stars for the Cinema and the Museum.

Great experience inside the market. Lots of options to eat. Some great economic options to try paella. Unfortunately there isn't any place to sit down and eat, but that's part of the experience I guess. A definite must see on your trip to València. Try the cheesecake and have a coffee right outside to start off your day

The Central Market in Valencia is absolutely incredible. The building itself is stunning, with beautiful architecture and a vibrant, bustling atmosphere. Inside, the variety is endless fresh produce, spices, cheeses, baked goods, and so much more. It’s a feast for the senses, with colors, aromas, and flavors everywhere you turn. The vendors are friendly and passionate about their products, and it’s the perfect place to sample local specialties or pick up something unique. Whether you’re shopping, snacking, or just exploring, this market is a must-see in Valencia. Truly one of the highlights of the city.

Very nice food market. Lots of food is repeated, but you still get a lot of variety. Much of the food is very overpriced, but I guess that's what you get at a touristy place. All the food looks nice, but I'm not sure if the quality is actually that good. Comes with parking, which is good.
Martina ( — Google review
100% worth visiting. This market is incredible. The building itself beautiful, but just to walk up and find every aisle immersing yourself in local fresh produce is a real experience. It does not feel too touristy in my opinion as you are surrounded by locals doing their daily shop. It does get busy, so go early (maybe that’s why I didn’t find it too touristy) - I loved popping by here daily

Bioparc Valencia is a unique zoo that houses nearly a thousand animals from 150 different African species. The park features specially designed habitats to ensure the well-being and comfort of the animals, offering visitors an immersive experience in various natural habitats. From vast savannas to dense forests, visitors can observe antelopes, giraffes, rhinoceroses, hyenas, buffaloes, leopards, gorillas, and elephants in recreated wild environments.
This is by far the best zoo I’ve visited in a long time! The viewing experience is excellent. Every animal can be seen clearly from multiple angles, and the enclosures are beautifully designed. One small improvement would be to include more animals and represent more regions. Overall, an amazing experience!
Hussain R — Google review
I really enjoyed visiting this zoo! The place is huge and very well kept, with an amazing variety of animals — including some really rare and beautiful species. You can tell the animals are well cared for, and the enclosures are clean and spacious. The only downside is the ticket price — it’s a bit expensive, especially for families. But overall, it’s a great place to spend a few hours, relax, and see lots of incredible animals. Definitely worth visiting!
Артур — Google review
One of the nicest zoos we ever visited. Even though it might look small, we spent great day there. Great variety of animals, the hippo feeding was amazing to see. The animals seem happy and very well cared for. In comparison with other zoos is this one alot of them share the space (like giraffes, ostriches, goats, birds) which gives a much more natural feeling, no cages, no minuscule enclosures. We were just in time for the "Circle of life" show where birds were flying around the arena which was very cool. Only downside was that some people were smoking even if its prohibited Even the restaurant has an amazing view to the animal enclosures. Overall great experience, even though a bit pricey it's definitely worth.

Amazing bioparc! Spent a day here while traveling in Valencia and so glad i did. Wonderfully laid out, not too busy, and great keeper talks given in spanish, catalan and english in the different areas of the park. Enjoyed the lunch meal deal in the cafeteria as well, great traditional paella for the cost.
Lexie P — Google review
Fantastic experience for everyone who want to enjoy a day (takes more than a couple of hours for a decent tour) with animals. I like that it's not you classic (and sad) Zoo, here animals have a good amount of space and are nourished and looked after. There is great variety and there are multiple places where you can rest and relax. The ticket price is not cheap, but it's something you can expect to keep those animals in the best possible conditions.
Fabrizio D — Google review
I'm thrilled with this biopark! The animals are cage-free, in conditions that are close to real life. There are waterfalls, ponds, lots of trees and grass, and rock formations. The animals are clean, well-fed, and look healthy and calm. The animals live as if on islands that you can walk around on all sides. I've never seen anything like this with the opportunity to see wild animals so close. Any zoo is still captivity, but this the best that can be in such conditions. The staff is friendly and professional, and there are tours available. I was especially impressed by the area with the lemurs, who just run around next to you, without cages. Elephants, hippos, giraffes, lions, a leopard, turtles, monkeys, many large and small animals, and birds. We wish the biopark prosperity and healthy visitors.
Мария В — Google review
So much fun! Only £25 each for adults. Purchased online the day before and didn’t have to line up like the rest. Able to just walk in. The enclosures were so nicely done, clean and the animals appeared well looked after. Would recommend the hippo feeding which is free to watch. The bird show is something I wouldn’t rave about and if you’re short on time give it a miss. Otherwise so fun. They have an open enclosure where the lemurs reside.
Sarah P — Google review
Very interesting walk-through zoo. Quite easy to reach by bus. Can easily spend a good three quarters of a day walking through and having fun with family. In order to enter it is recommended that you buy the tickets online before, otherwise you will end up waiting for half an hour to three quarters of an hour. The issue was not the long queue as much as disorganisation by the personnel selling / scanning tickets. They could have done a lot more and faster if they opened one or two more selling stations and organised the queues a bit more (people were skipping queue and it was not nice!). Zoo is recommended for families of all ages but especially for children. If you go do not miss the AR underwater experience. It is a must for circa Euro 5 (each person). Quite original and good. The only downside was the buying of slushy drinks from the park (actaully from all over Valencia!). You had to buy a refillable cup. Whilst I understand this option to reduce plastic waste, the probability is that you cannot keep on going around Valencia with the cup to refill each time and this custom of selling slushy with cup seems to be all over the city. So you either buy a cup each time (which is not environmentally and financially friendly) or opt for another drink. The rest was all positive and very recommended. The souvenir shop was ok but could do with a good upgrade of original products to sell.

San Pablo Bridge is a stunning iron and wood footbridge that spans the Huécar River, offering breathtaking views of Cuenca's iconic Hanging Houses. The bridge can be enjoyed from the convent of San Pablo, now transformed into a Parador hotel.
It is a beam bridge located over the Huécar River, connecting the San Pablo Monastery and the old town of Cuenca. After the original bridge, built between 1533 and 1589, collapsed, the current structure was constructed in 1902 and opened in 1903. The bridge spans two sections, with a total length of 100 meters and a maximum height of 60 meters. From the bridge, you can enjoy views of the Huécar River and the canyon, as well as a perspective of the Casas Colgadas perched on the cliffs.

Very impressive! A tad bouncy and you can certainly feel the bridge sway and jiggle when you walk over it which can be disconcerting and if you’re scared of heights then it’s a tad terrifying. But a cool experience. Definitely worth a trip to Cuenca.
GORDY O — Google review
Not for the faint of heart, vertigo sufferers or ones with fear of height. It looks harmless from the photos but the bridge's width is narrower and the height of the bridge is perched far higher than expected. Does not help that the bridge has very thin railings on both sides. That said it does have very breathtaking panoramic views of the town and countryside if you can keep your eyes open and stop your legs from shaking.

Lovely bridge. Was fun jumping on it. Just kidding. The middle part shakes a bit but the views are incredible.

The bridge is a wonderful way to enter the city. The other way is through a spiraling road in the bottom near the underground parking lot. It’s hard to truly capture the magnitude of the city if you don’t cross the bridge.

We came with the family to celebrate my son's birthday. Last year we were in PortAventura. Yes, maybe this park is not so beautiful, there is little greenery and beautiful areas, but the rides are great, the staff is great, there is a cafe, the queues are from 5-20 minutes. We rode some rides 5 times. I definitely recommend it.

Such a fun park!! Great for a day of playing around, the lines aren’t that big and there’s some rides that are so crazy immersive that you leave fully wondering what was happening! We went in the end of September and already got a lot of cool Halloween experiences and decor! My main complaints: - there’s is basically no vegetarian food options inside of the park (im not even gonna mention vegan) Being that you cannot enter with food this is extremely unfortunate. Had to eat a pizza margarita after 30 minutes of searching for food; - the Halloween experiences were extra charge and it wasn’t that cheap! You pay 44€ for the general admission and then you have to pay an extra 7€ per ride (single). I felt like it wasn’t fair - there’s more stores and restaurants than rides. The rides are some of the best I’ve ever been on and so much fun, but you have to walk a lot to get to them as you always have to go through stores and restaurants - more than once was a ride in maintenance while we were there. Eventually we managed to get on all of them but it was annoying to keep having to go back in line

Visited during the Halloween season and overall had a great time. The park is clean, well themed, and offers a solid mix of rides for both thrill seekers and families. The Gold Fast Pass is absolutely worth buying as it saves hours of waiting and makes the experience far smoother. Food quality was better than expected for a theme park, and the PhotoPass system is a nice way to keep all ride photos digitally. On the downside, most staff speak very limited English and signage can be confusing. The Gold Pass does not work for the horror mazes and we waited about an hour and a half to enter the IT Experience, which lasted around five minutes. Some vending machines also stopped working later in the evening, which was frustrating after a long day of walking. Still, the Halloween theming and atmosphere were great, and with the Gold Pass, the park is worth visiting.

Enjoyed the day, arrived at 1130am checked in and on rides by 12.07pm. Bit more information pre q on how to exchange all inclusive tickets would be helpful. All inclusive wasn't worth it in my opinion, freestyle drinks be a better option. Fast pass was great, and well organised. Recommended as a theme park to visit

Parque Warner Madrid exceeded my expectations and delivered a full day of fun, excitement, and surprisingly great theming. From the moment you walk through the gates, the atmosphere pulls you into the world of DC Comics, Looney Tunes, and classic Hollywood — it’s immersive, colorful, and well-designed. The rides were fantastic! Superman: La Atracción de Acero is a must for any roller coaster lover — smooth, intense, and thrilling. Batman: Arkham Asylum was another highlight with the VR option, and the Stunt Fall ride definitely isn’t for the faint of heart! But it’s not just thrill rides — there are also plenty of attractions for families and younger visitors, especially in the Cartoon Village, which is adorable and really well done. The park is also clean and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I was impressed by the variety and quality of the shows, especially the Loca Academia de Policía stunt show — it had us cheering the whole time. Food inside the park is what you’d expect from a theme park — a bit pricey — but there were decent options, and everything we tried was fresh. I also appreciated the shaded areas and mist zones during the hot parts of the day. Overall, Parque Warner is one of the best theme parks I’ve visited in Europe. Whether you’re traveling with kids, friends, or as a couple, there’s something for everyone. Highly recommend getting the fast pass if you're going on a busy weekend — it makes a huge difference. 5 stars without a doubt!

Parque Warner Madrid is an amazing place to spend the day—we had a great time enjoying the rides, shows, and overall atmosphere. The park is fun, vibrant, and full of things to do for all ages. We genuinely enjoyed our visit and would happily go back. The only issue we found is that some staff members don’t speak English, which is a bit surprising for a park that attracts so many international visitors. It didn’t ruin the experience, but it did make certain moments a little harder than expected. Overall, it’s a fantastic park with plenty to enjoy, and with just a bit more attention to language support, it would be even better.

Molinos de Viento de Consuegra

Mentioned on 
2 lists 
Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Molinos de Viento de Consuegra is a collection of twelve charming whitewashed windmills dating back to the 19th century, originally used for grinding flour. Situated in La Mancha (Ruta de Don Quijote), this site offers incredible views and a picturesque setting that evokes the spirit of Don Quixote. Visitors can enjoy the scenic beauty and capture stunning photographs without the crowds, making it an ideal spot for a peaceful excursion.
These are 12 windmills built in the 16th century on Cerro Calderico. They evoke the windmills featured in Miguel de Cervantes' novel Don Quixote and are known as a symbol of the La Mancha region. Each windmill has a unique name, most of which are related to Don Quixote. The closest windmill to the town, named Bolero, has an information desk, and with an entrance fee, visitors can explore the interior of the windmill. With the same ticket, visitors can also visit Consuegra Castle and other historic sites in Consuegra. Please note that the windmill blades are just frameworks, so they do not turn even when the wind blows.

Must do trip from madrid!!! So worth it to drive there (about 1 hr), you only need an hour or two there to take photos and go up inside one of the mills. Amazing views, and you can walk/hike to see all of them or also go by car and stop at each of them. No regrets.

Visiting the Molinos de Viento de Consuegra felt like stepping into a storybook! 🌾 These iconic windmills, perched along the hilltop, are absolutely breathtaking — especially with the sprawling countryside stretching out in every direction 😍. Walking from one windmill to the next, we couldn’t help but imagine Don Quixote and his legendary adventures coming to life. The views from the top are spectacular, with the castle standing proudly nearby and the charming town of Consuegra below. It’s the perfect place for photography, a peaceful walk, and a moment to soak in the history and beauty of Spain. We went early in the morning, and it was quiet and serene, with just the sound of the breeze turning the sails. A must-visit destination for anyone traveling through Castilla-La Mancha — full of magic, history, and unforgettable scenery. 🌟📸

Such a fun place to stop and see this historic site in Spain. The windmills are much larger than they look in pictures and it's amazing to see them up close. You can pay a couple of Euros to go up and see the inside. I think it's worth it as it was very fascinating. There is a little movie they show you that explains how they worked.
Brandon Y — Google review
The windmills of Consuegra are located on a high ridge overlooking the plains of La Mancha. It is a very nice place to visit, offering a wide panorama of the Castilian countryside—a classic view of the region, often associated with the novel Don Quixote. The views from the hilltop are excellent and stretch clearly for miles, providing ample opportunity for good photographs. The site also features the Medieval Castle of Consuegra, which is located right next to the mills. The castle is an interesting structure to explore, offering solid insight into the area's history and strategic past. While it requires a drive, this destination is totally worth the trip. It combines significant history and appealing architecture with great natural views. If you are traveling through central Spain, we recommend making this a worthwhile stop on your itinerary.

I have a special desire for windmills especially those old windmills, visited those in Mykonos and absolutely like them. Knowing Spain also have old windmills and I have to be there. The sunset here is incredible and I would assume sunrise is amazing as well. Worth a visit and if you drive, drive lol the way up to the last windmills!

Absolutely loved my sunset walk among the windmills of Consuegra! 🌇✨ A wonderful blend of history and nature, with the sky ablaze in gold and pink hues. 🌅 Perfect spot to burn some calories and be mesmerized. 🏃‍♂️🌟 First stop on my mini Europe road trip and it was fantastic! 🚗🇪🇸 Highly recommend!

Royal Palace of Aranjuez

Mentioned on 
29 lists 
Castle
Nature & Parks
The Royal Palace of Aranjuez, an 18th-century royal residence, boasts ornately decorated rooms including a dance hall and throne room. Originally commissioned by Philip II in 1561 to replace the old Aranjuez residence, the palace was completed by Philip V in 1715. The palace features over 300 rooms filled with royal ornamentation and is reminiscent of France's Versailles. Located near Madrid, it's easily accessible by train from Atocha station for a day trip.
Aranjuez makes for a lovely day trip coming down from Madrid and the Palacio Real is a must visit here. The site dates back to 1560 when King Philip II commissioned the palace as part of a wider series of seasonal residences. The palace was easy to get into and was not very busy as we visited on a work day, the architecture and surrounding gardens were really beautiful and I was super impressed/ surprised by the great variety of different styles present in each of the rooms of the palace. The town is accessible by public transport from central Madrid using the C3 cercanías line and will take 45 minutes to an hour depending on where you hop on the train. The town is quite charming to visit and one can still use the Madrid tarjeta de transport pe público when using the local buses here too. After visiting the palace I highly recommend I visit to the sizeable Jardín de la Isla and Jardín del Príncipe royal gardens
Rohan H — Google review
A fabulous Royal Palace with gardens that deserves your visit. The famous gardens here were the inspiration for the musical piece "Concierto de Aranjuez". This was one of the favorite musical pieces of my father which inspired me to visit. When we attend they were doing a lot of construction and renovation which detracted from the experience. It was still well worth visiting. We said to ourselves we would love to come back when they're done with the renovation work. We were not able to visit the fabulous garden with the fountain because of this renovation work. The other gardens were open with several working fountains and some fountains that were not flowing.

One of the must-see places in Aranjuez. This place is so beautiful and so detailed. I forgot to take photos of some spots because they were so beautiful 🤦🏻‍♀️ As the the UNESCO World Heritage site and a former spring residence of the Spanish royal family. Located in the town of Aranjuez, the estate includes the palace, extensive gardens, and other buildings like the Casa del Labrador.

At just 60 minutes from the Madrid center via Cercanias C3 train. Very well preserved and restored, it was the royal palace for the spanish throne until Elizabeth II after which the seat was moved to Madrid. From the outside it may seem unassuming architecture but the interior has the grandeur you can find in the Royal Palace in Madrid. The main stairs are a late addition which serves as a great intro with an interesting story. The 'Gabinete Árabe' smoking room, my favorite part of the visit because you don't expect a room like that in the seat of catholic kings and queens, is a breathtaking representation of arabic interior design, replicating part of the Alhambra of Granada. I strongly recommend taking the guided tour. It lasts about 75 minutes, our guide was very knowledgeable and eloquent. The tour gives you private access to some of the best crafted rooms with outstanding ornaments and intimate details of the consort spaces. Just one photo of the exterior to avoid spoilers 😁

The Royal Palace of Aranjuez is a stunning royal residence about 1 hr. from Madrid, historical architecture and its vast,beautiful gardens along the Tagus River. Inside, highlights include the Porcelain Room and Arab Room, filled with intricate decoration and history. Less crowded than Madrid’s main palace, peaceful and scenic experience — perfect for a day trip.

This is a great little getaway that is only an hour by train from Madrid. It is absolutely lovely to wander the gardens around the palace. Inside the palace are lovely rooms that the Royal family that used to stay and live in. The tickets were very inexpensive and this trip is great for half a day. We got some drinks afterwards at the restaurant nearby. If you’re looking for a half day trip from Madrid, this is it!

El Retiro Park, one of the largest parks in Madrid, was previously owned by the Spanish Monarchy. This 19th-century park features a boating lake, rose garden, numerous fountains, and statues.
This park is amazing and beautiful. Even with the several hundreds of people walking around, it didn't feel crowded. The park has so many quiet spaces to just relax and soak in the day. Love the little boats you can hire on the lake, very romantic.

A Peaceful Oasis in the Heart of Madrid – El Parque del Retiro I visited El Parque del Retiro on October 13, 2025, and it was an amazing experience. The weather was perfect — sunny, warm, and surrounded by the beautiful autumn colors of the trees. This park is truly a peaceful oasis in the center of Madrid, full of history, nature, and charm. During my visit, I explored the fountains, the Estanque Grande (the large lake), the elegant Palacio de Cristal, and even the Jardín Escondido, a lovely hidden garden full of calm and beauty. You can easily spend hours walking around, renting a bike or scooter, or simply relaxing and enjoying the scenery. I brought a picnic with Iberian sandwiches, fresh fruits, and dessert — a perfect way to spend the afternoon. The entrance is free, and I recommend visiting in the late afternoon to enjoy the magical sunset views over the lake. The park’s location is excellent, close to the Puerta de Alcalá, making it easy to explore the nearby area as well. Whether you go with family, friends, or on your own, El Retiro is an unforgettable place to connect with nature and enjoy the beauty of Madrid.
WILINTON V — Google review
A trip to Madrid is incomplete without a visit to the Retiro Park. It is so vast, peaceful and with surprises at every turn that you can spend hours just absorbing the different vibes of mother nature. We saw the beautiful birds, some rare foliage and a nice lake / water body where people could do rowing. There is a beautiful blend of nature with history as the palace and corridors of ancient sculptures adorn this park. Some cute cafes too and lots of enthusiastic visitors jogging or walking along, friends chatting on the benches and lovers too. Would highly recommend that you keep time for this place on your holiday to genuinely recharge your batteries.

A really beautiful park in the middle of the city easily accessible with the metro too. It's massive and there's a lot to explore, you can find lots of people but at the same time many spots in the park with more silence if you prefer that. Highly recommend going here.

Once part of a royal retreat in the 17th century, El Retiro Park is now Madrid’s green heart—perfect for walking, rowing on the lake, or relaxing under the shade of century-old trees. The Crystal Palace and Rose Garden are must-sees, especially at sunset. Free to enter and full of art, fountains, and street performers, it’s a serene escape from the city’s buzz and a place where locals and travelers blend beautifully with nature.

It’s a lovely and lively park. There were some excellent musicians playing throughout the park and lots of people but plenty of room to enjoy. We would have enjoyed a boat ride but didn’t have time. We were disappointed that the crystal palace is under renovation and covered.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Beautiful and lively park in the heart of Madrid! I just finished walking around Retiro Park, and it’s such a peaceful yet energetic place. Many people come here for jogging, cycling, and group workouts, while others simply enjoy a relaxing stroll. I also saw people rowing boats on the lake — it adds such a charming touch to the atmosphere. In the late afternoon, the light is beautiful and many visitors gather to take photos around the fountains and gardens. Definitely a must-visit spot if you want to experience how Madrid locals enjoy their day.

Sights & Landmarks
The Santiago Bernabéu Stadium is a must-visit for football enthusiasts and Real Madrid supporters. With an 81,000-seat capacity, it has been the home ground for legendary players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane, and many more. Visitors can take self-guided tours that offer panoramic views of the stadium, access to the presidential box, press room, dressing rooms, players tunnel, and even the pitch. The tour culminates in the impressive trophy exhibit.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We went to the Bernabéu Stadium, and it was such an amazing experience! Super lively and very clean. Getting in was quick with almost no wait (we arrived about 15 minutes after it started). The stairs were a bit of a climb, but thankfully there are escalators! Overall, a really fun and memorable experience — definitely worth visiting!
Farnaz A — Google review
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 “Santiago Bernabéu – the temple where dreams come true… and the hopes of visiting teams quietly die.” Great stadium: huge, modern, shines like a spaceship. The atmosphere is loud enough to crush the self-esteem of any away team within ten minutes. Security is friendly but has the look of people who’ve seen everything – including fans who mentally switched to airplane mode after the third goal. Food? Typical stadium stuff: expensive, but at least the beer tastes like hope. Seats? Usually great – unless you get the guy who celebrates every goal like he just won the lottery. Conclusion: A beautiful stadium. Perfect if you love Real… or bring a touch of masochism as an away fan.

I was here for the NFL game better the Washington Commanders and the Miami Dolphins and i have to say the stadium is amazing...its clean, easy to get around, chairs are a bit smaller than I am used to in America but other than that its aces. The lightning, the scoreboard and details throughout the stadium is amazing...best of all the food prices are soooo cheap compared to America...at least 50% cheaper, and the food was great.

Took the bernabue tour which cost 35 euros per person and felt like it could’ve been cheaper. The stadium was having an event so they didn’t let us stay inside past 10 minutes or so. The whole tour is an immersive experience, the history is well elaborated so even someone who isn’t a fan can connect and appreciate the journey that the team has had. The architecture is appreciative. An entire section is also dedicated to real madrid city.

As a American coming here, it was truly a great experience! The Spain crowd was curious and interested. The Stadium really gave off that “big” feeling being that there were so many seats taken. For a NFL international game I feel like it could’ve been more functional getting in and out of the game, transportation, etc. but I guess there isn’t much you can do when you have 80,000 trying to cram in the small metro. Experience was great would highly recommend!

Amazing stadium design let down by the organisation. Visited for the NFL game and there was no organisation or direction for fans arriving. Police moving through on horseback using aggression to form queues. The food and drink we got was reasonably priced for a stadium but they had either sold out or not stocked any hot food before kick off. Ended up we only got crisps that cost €5

Art museum with lots of artwork, some sculptures. Lots of art are religious theme. No pictures are allowed to take inside the museum. There are guard in every section area to ensure no touching nor photos. Museum and art lovers can easily spend half to a day here. Worth a visit.
Kaman K — Google review
The Museo Nacional del Prado is one of those places that truly earns its reputation — a vast, magnificent collection that feels like walking through the pages of art history. From Velázquez and Goya to Titian and Rubens, every gallery reveals another masterpiece. That said, it can definitely feel overwhelming, with rooms branching into more rooms and a layout that’s easy to get lost in — but that’s part of its charm and grandeur. We visited on Spain’s National Day when entry was free, and while the queue took about 30 minutes, it moved steadily. Even on regular free-admission days, expect a wait, so plan accordingly. Once inside, the experience is nothing short of breathtaking — an essential stop for anyone visiting Madrid, even if it takes a little patience to get in. Truly a world class museum.

No photos at all allowed here. Unusual but show respect and refrain. Just enjoy the incredible collection without thinking about your social media cred! Budget 5-6 hours honestly. Not as big as Louvre thankfully, but still large. Titian, Rubens, Van Dyck and of course mucho Goya and Velasquez. Bucket list museum for renaissance and baroque art lovers! The photos I took were before I was made aware of the no photo policy.

“The Prado Museum is Madrid’s artistic treasure and one of the most important museums in the world. Founded in 1819 under King Ferdinand VII, it showcases iconic works by Velázquez, Goya, El Greco, and Rubens. Designed by Juan de Villanueva, the neoclassical building itself is a masterpiece. Every room reveals centuries of European art and royal history. Admission is around €15, with free entry during late-afternoon hours—an unmissable experience for art lovers visiting Madrid.”

This former hospital is a sprawling museum over for floors currently the fourth and third floors are not exhibiting any artwork and the garden gardens are undergoing renovations. This beautiful building has a modern extension at the front which is brilliant. The works inside are representative of the Spanishhistory of the modern era. There are many documents and magazine, examples, architectural, designs, and posters of the war era. There are Picasso’s works by Dali Miro and the Cubist. It is an impressive collection and well attended.

The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía is an absolute must-visit for art lovers and anyone interested in Spain’s modern artistic legacy. Seeing *Guernica* in person is a truly moving experience — powerful, haunting, and unforgettable. It’s a privilege to stand before not just Picasso’s masterpiece but also works by Dalí, Miró, and other icons of 20th-century art. You’ll want to budget at least two hours, though it’s easy to spend the entire day exploring the galleries and temporary exhibitions. We visited on Spain’s National Day, so entrance was free; there was a queue in the morning, but it moved quickly. Note: bags and liquids aren’t allowed inside, so bring a €1 coin for the lockers. Overall, a beautifully curated museum that rewards both casual visitors and serious art enthusiasts alike.

The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, inaugurated in 1992, is Spain’s national museum of 20th-century art, housed in a former hospital redesigned by architect Antonio Fernández Alba. Its collection features masterpieces by Picasso, Dalí, and Miró, including Picasso’s legendary Guernica. The modern glass elevators and spacious galleries create a perfect setting for contemporary art. Entry is free on certain evenings, making it a must-see for art lovers in Madrid.

I went here primarily to see Guernica, a work by Picasso the I learned about 45+ years ago in a high school English class. Given the context, understanding the symbolism, message, and promotion of liberty and free speech made seeing this masterpiece in person powerful. I loved how it was displayed, and was glad to arrive early with few other people in the room. To see other works by Dali, Delaunay and many others was a bonus for me. The museum is large and spacious and I never felt crowded or rushed.

An amazing gallery, which concentrates on spanish art, but with some very interesting and valuable international links too. I went on a sunday in the free hour 12:30-14:15 for which i would recommend being there 30 minute earlier since obviously many people do this🤭. Still despite the long queue, people were getting in pretty quickly. When in, the permanent paintings, distributed in the halls by style (cubism, post cubism, surrealism, etc.) were on the second floor (3rd and 4th floor were temporarily closed). On the first floor there was an amazing exhibit by Maruja Mallo (i’ll post photos of some of her paintings).

Book early to avoid disappointment (so true!) - while the Guernica was spectacular and emotional (we went in October this year so not huge crowds) there were many other paintings. Sculptures that were epic. It's a " must visit" for Madrid

This museum showcases an extraordinary private collection featuring works by renowned artists such as Titian, Tintoretto, Warhol, and Pollock.
Beautiful and surprisingly large multi-level art museum filled with incredible works by the best artist's of our time. Contains a little bit of everything from Baroque & Renaissance to Abstract, impressionism/expressionism and contemporary and too many others I cant think of at this time lol. But, seriously it was very enjoyable, zen and maybe I was lucky but there was even a small flamenco concert that happened on the main level. Highly recommend

An incredible collection of art. Prefer wandering the halls here over some of the other more notable museums in Madrid. That said, it can be a little overwhelming in scope/size, with floor after floor, hall after all. But it is fairly well organized and easy to navigate. There is also a small cafeteria should you get in the mood for a snack or coffee. Definitely worth the cost of admission, and definitely worth your time.

Museum is great, big would definitely recommend to dedicate at least 4 hours to do it calmly and with intention. They have pieces from almost all eras and movements and really liked the route as well. Mondays it’s free so recommend to take advantage of that!! Audio guide was okay, but they focus mainly on a piece at each room and give you a lot of info about it but I was hopping it would be about all pieces or at least more of the overall context or the movement those pieces share, can be better tbh

Medium to large size without clear direction signs. If you have a sense of direction you’ll find your way around, but not easy to make a path from start to finish without more than once doubling back. The timed entry is usually for a ground floor temporary exhibitions, but the best way to see all is to start from the top and work your way down, thus in chronological order of period. But, all that aside, wow, what a collection of masterpieces! Highly recommended. Budget 3-4 hrs to see all properly. Don’t skip any room, as you might miss a jewel amongst works of lesser renown, albeit still tremendously valuable and relevant.
Joe B — Google review
Beautiful collection! Had a wonderful time admiring the incredible artwork. An extremely rude tour guide for the museum decided to stand in front of a Caravaggio for nearly 10 minutes as the room filled up with people waiting to see it. She wouldn't move, kept yapping. Even the people in her group realized they were in the way. Eventually someone gently approached her & asked if she could please move aside so that all the rest of the people waiting could view the popular Caravaggio. Her response was that she was with the museum & "there are 800 other works of art you can go look at". I don't care who you work for or how much art there is in the museum, the art is for all of us. Don't be rude.

Very good museum that covers 500-600 years of art. It’s relatively small and easy to navigate. The collection holds a wide variety of paintings from early Italian church art through landscape painters, Impressionists, Fauves to Picasso and more contemporary artists.
Jan B — Google review
A fantastic collection, brilliantly laid out in a beautiful building. The top floor held the older works, with lots of beautiful religious paintings, some dating back to the 10th century. The first floor contained the more modern works, from around the mid 19th century onwards, encompassing Impressionism, Expressionism, Cubism, Fauvism, Surrealism and more, through Pop-Art, right up to works from present day. The galleries were very well laid out, with a chronological nature to each room - in many cases, it helped connect the dots between the different movements, and bevause of the depth of the collection, in cases like work from Miro or Kandinsky, you could see the artist's style adapting and developing over the years. The ground floor holds the loaned collection from the daughter of the original donor, and contains even more treasures, especially from the Impressionists, with treats from Sisley and Pizarro, and some spectacular Pop-Art period works from the likes of O'Keefe.

My partner who is hearing impaired found it very difficult to hear the audio guide that we purchased. The staff pulled out all stops to ensure my partner could hear the guide. Eventually they suggested that he listen to the guide from the web version of the audio on his phone and direct the audio through Bluetooth to his hearing aids. The audio was perfect and we both thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hours at the museum. Thank you to the lovely team member who helped out with the audio!
