Best beach in the area. the sea is clean and clear mostly. Very large sandy area. We didn’t have any problems regarding theft. Definitely recommend!
Great beach for sunsets as it’s west facing. Wide and sandy with two large areas to rent parasol and loungers. Price standard for this part of Mallorca (19.50€ / day). Beach bar, pay restrooms and plenty of places for food nearby. Massages starting at 10€. It gets wind at this time of year, so can feel a bit cool at 22 deg C air temp and almost same water temp.
It's a great beach, level with fine sand and gentle waves. We are here at the.end of May. The local council has installed board walks, sun loungers and parasols. In the middle behind the life guards tower is a shaded area for wheelchairs etc. They have free use of crutches, a beach Wheelchair and sling hoist to make the beach and sea more accessible. The beach Wheelchair can go in the sea and floats. An excellent addition to the facilities. Toilets, showers and first aid are also available.
Nice beach plenty of space and calm shallow waters. Pedalos available for hire 20 EUR for an hour. Parasol and 2 sunbeds cost 20 EUR for a day. A great addition is that the parasols have lockers so you can store your phone etc when going in the sea (you set your own combination lock). A useful feature.
Calm, clean beach even in mid-September. The water can be quite cold however. Can’t fault it though - it’s very laid back and is close to restaurants and shops. It’s also in a very convenient location if you’re staying in a hotel nearby. Would recommend!
The place is amazing the beach is close to the baars and buss stacion 2 min away the beach is super cean and not to much noise you can reax and go hom full of power
Very beautiful beach, full of both free spaces and rental sunbeds. Here you can also rent a cycling boat or stand up paddle, but apart from that there is still a lot of space to chill out and relax in the seawater
Nice beach, nice place! I recomnend it.

Kids entertainment started around 9pm, with a number of bars there are always helpful staff ready to serve you. The adult entertainment was still child appropriate with a very talented singer.
Bustling and lively, in a great spot. The little shop is fab – the happy shopkeeper makes it worth a visit on its own! Plenty to keep the kids busy with arcades, pool and games. The entertainment on stage isn’t the best, but it’s free so you can’t really complain. We tried two of the bars and both were very friendly, with a great choice of drinks for everyone. Overall, a fun place to spend an evening
If you are down at the beach end, it's a little walk. Nice looking bars and restaurants. Regular entertainment is meant be on but no sign of it when we were there.
Maybe it was slightly out of season but a lot of places were closed. We were there at the end of September. Hogan bar was good. Friendly bar man. Drinks were slightly more expensive than elsewhere but nothing major
We have been twice late September with still decent crowds watching but I can imagine it very busy with families in the peak summer months with plenty of bars, we sat near the Caledonian pub who have a great waiter who looks after you all night bringing your drinks and having a laugh
Great atmosphere, plenty of pubs , entertainment for all ages. Has massive screen that shows all Celtic games. All the pubs show lots of sports. Gift shops, supermarkets and food shops, and restaurants there or very nearby.
Very quiet not a lot happening possibly wrong time of year but looks a feels a bit run down .kids are with coin op some were broken and some well just ? In all inwas disappointed but thats just me the last time i was there the square was jumping nearly every time.

Lovely walk to here from santa ponsa lots to see on the way. The views are beautiful and a great place for a picture. Just down the hill.is the yacht club that has a little cafe.
Nice place to walk to in Santa Ponça to get away from the noise and sit in the sun for a bit. Great views across the bay and up the coast.
Lovely evening urban stroll to find this monument. The walk from Santa ponsa takes you past bars shops and restaurants then through residential streets. Some lovely villas along the way. We did the walk again next day during the day.interesting monument with some stunning views across the bay and the harbour. Set in a gravel path park which houses lots of beautiful dragonflies. We also spotted a stunning bird called a Hoopoe (Google it) walk down and to the right is the marina. Lovely boats, some cafes and boat hire etc.you can smell the money 🤑. Fab walk out - approx 4.4 miles round trip from town centre.
Good view point. Fresh air, enjoyed to watching lovely surfers:)
nice views and on our visit some people were cliff jumping - not for the faint hearted lol. little tip- at the restaurants opposite the beach look for the signs that say creu de santa Ponça, but dont follow goggle maps as this a long way to it 😀 ( when in front of the restaurant in pic keep right and dont pass-this will take you straight to the monument.
Love the scenery of Mallorca... what a great place to do photography. Sites like this are numerous along the coast. A must if you're a photography buff !!!
Went to an evening concert here. It was free and very enjoyable.
It’s around a 15min or so walk from the beach area - we drove and the route wasn’t obvious as surprisingly we saw no road signs/directions and relied on our satnav. It’s worth seeking out as you’ve a nice view into the clear waters below and back across the bay towards Santa Ponca. Couldn’t find any information about the statue other than what’s inscribed on one face in Spanish - I think basically it commemorates the conquest of Majorca by Spain from the Moors in 1229 and I guess this is where they landed with their troops and horses. Reliefs depicting the voyage etc are carved on each side but some are weathered and unfortunately a few of the figures have been vandalised. If you look across from the beach at Santa Ponca towards the prominatory to the far left then you should spot the monument cross. I think I understand from the inscription that it was built in 1929 (seven centuries after the landing) but not sure to what later dates refer.

Molí de Santa Ponça A beautiful old windmill on the edge of town. From the beach it was about a 20 minute walk in the sunshine with paths all the way to the small park where the windmill sits. It wasn’t opened when I visited, infact I don’t think it is anymore but it’s a nod to the past and well worth a visit and take a picture. It’s free to visit and there is a bench next to it to take a rest on a hot day. Get away from the beach for an hour and take a short walk you won’t be disappointed.
Nicely preserved old windmill. Free to see. Good place to walk your dog or stop and stretch your legs in the small parklet area. Interior is not accessible. Lots of empty snail shells amidst the bushes.
Charming historical windmill can be reached by walking distance from the Santa Ponsa downtown. It was built middle of 19th century, it was restored in 1995.Producing images worthy of being shown Is not far from Santa Ponca's downtown and makes for a pleasant day trip. While traveling from Palma to Andratx, you may see a stunning historic mill on the way. This massive mill, under construction since 1810 (restored in 1995), can be seen near the Santa Ponça exit's roundabout. There are a lot of parking spots close by, so stop for a little bit if you need a break. There is a flight of stairs, a landscape in full bloom, and a few seats made of wood where you may relax and take in the scenery.
Walk from centre of Santa Ponsa takes about 25 - 30 minutes. Nice historical building but you can't access it anymore, fenced off. Gardens around could be better maintained. Info board at the windmill and the irrigation system in English. A short excursion from Santa Ponsa, wouldn't take more than about 90 minutes on foot.
On a roundabout. Cannot go into windmill. Nice walk from Santa Ponsa.
Was closed looks like it's just been left so that you cannot see inside.
Nice bike ride to get there but not much to do when you get there.
Just a simple one, ok to see if it's on your way

Slide 1 of 8
It was incredible experience. Our tour guide was amazing. First you get free welcome drink - you have 3 options from Jameson (Jameson with lime and ginger is amazing). Then you go to first room, it’s about history of Jameson. Second room is about how to make Jameson and on third you learn about differences, how to smell and taste different Jamesons. With this guide, it was really amazing and I could stay longer than 45 minutes.
My wife and I took this tour on a Monday morning a few hours before our flight home and had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was very animated and obviously loved his job! Great tour through history all the way to current time. Definitely recommend this tour for any whiskey aficionados or anyone with just a taste for Jameson.
I paid about $26 for the Jameson Distillery tour and it was worth every penny. They start with a really cool 3D projector story about the history and how Jameson is made, then you move into a tasting room where you try four different Jamesons and learn how to properly smell and taste whiskey. It truly feels like a world-class experience. The premium ones were noticeably smoother (whiskey by itself definitely grows hair on your chest 😂), but it was fun, informative, and delicious. After the tasting, you get a drink included — they already have a bar set up with several cocktail options, and if you want another drink afterward you can buy more. The tour guide was incredible — funny, knowledgeable, and made it feel like he actually believed every part of the history. It was so good I found myself thinking, “Do y’all hire? I could work here too.” The staff overall was extremely friendly and helpful. They’ll even hold your bags if you’re coming straight from the airport like I was. There’s merchandise at the end if you want to shop, and the whole experience is just a lot of fun from start to finish. I would 100% come back and I’d tell anyone visiting Dublin to add this to their trip.
What an unforgettable experience at the Jameson Distillery! We opted for the Secret Whiskey Package and savored every moment. The tour was a delightful blend of history, craftsmanship, and fun, with fascinating insights into the company’s founder and the art of whiskey making. The highlight? Learning the skills of whiskey tasting, followed by a truly delicious sampling experience. Despite the bustling crowd of fellow travelers, the staff made us feel so special and welcome. We loved every minute and can’t wait to return!
Had a fantastic tasting tour on my second visit to this iconic Irish distillery. The guide’s deep knowledge and entertaining presentation made the experience memorable. It’s no wonder Jameson remains one of the world’s top selling whiskeys. Highly recommended!
Exactly everything you'd expect from a distillery tour. Great tour guide, samples of the whisky, and the best ambiance. All the employees were stellar and very nice to chat with. You can also purchase exclusive bottles you can't get anywhere else in the world.
The tour is small but mighty. They managed to fit so much together that it ended up being my favorite part of Dublin. The presentation of the distilleries History as well as its accomplishments. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was a perfect way to end our day. The John Jamison philosophy of everyone’s family has made this an absolute favorite for life.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Jamison Distillery. I went with my husband and my daughter. It was very informative and quite interesting. There were several experiences during the tour. We tasted whiskeys that we hadn't tried before. Our new favorite one is Black Barrel. We've bought a bottle now that we're back home and have shared it with a neighbor. He is now a fan! I recommend going on this tour. It's fun, educational, and it even has a cute little shop inside.

The most beautiful views of Mallorca! Worth seeing if visiting the Island.
Plenty of information and magnificent views of the local area. Suggest decent footwear as the tracks are steep and rugged in most places. Take some water too. Plan early morning. Quiet and cooler.
A bit of a disappointment, but perhaps expectations were too high. While a charming place to visit individually or in a group, it seems quite challenging. The beautiful views, as with the entire island, compensate for the arduous climb especially when you went for a walk in flip-flops.
Surely Worth visiting. Make sure to wear the right shoes. Breathtaking view 360” from the top of the hill, where you also find the remainings of an ancient tower. You’ll find arrows directing you the right way everywhere.
Definitely worth the small hike. Yes, the signage is poor (or nonexistent) but it’s really NOT hard to figure out where to climb for the views. Honestly only takes about 15 min walk uphill and sideways to get to the viewpoints. So ignore the negative reviews! I definitely recommend going here for sunset. Free to enter the park.
I knew there were some ruins, didn’t know from a 3,500 year old settlement. Great views of surrounding area
I visited this place on a very hot day🔥🤪🌵 but it was still beautiful to see this view, I highly recommend it 👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻
A good small hiking area with great views and some history. Well signed and paths in a good condition. If you’re staying in Santa Ponça, it is worth a visit. If you have been to mountains, it is not even close to a challenging hike.
