Felanitx: The east of Mallorca<\/h2>\n\n

Felanitx<\/strong> (pronounced Fela-nitsch) is located in the east of Mallorca. Maybe you are heading to Portocolom<\/strong> or the great beaches around Cala d’Or<\/strong> or Cala Ferrera<\/strong> anyway: Consider taking a small detour and visit Felanitx! Felanitx is a small town, but has a few small attractions and the charm of a Mallorcan town that has not been taken by tourism.<\/p>\n\n

Tip<\/strong>: The best way to explore the small towns of Mallorca is by car, so you remain flexible and can stop wherever you like best.<\/p>\n\n

What to see in Felanitx<\/h2>\n\n

Felanitx is not by the sea, and perhaps for that reason has remained a bit of the low-key Mallorcan small town<\/strong> it’s always been. You won’t find any touristy places here and that is a pleasant change! I’ll show you a few spots you shouldn’t miss!<\/p>\n\n

Carrer Major<\/h3>\n\n

Carrer Major<\/strong> is one of the main shopping streets of Felanitx. Here in this pedestrian zone, you can still discover really original Mallorcan stores<\/strong>, including some stores with handmade ceramics. Felanitx was once famous for its ceramics<\/strong>. Attention: During the typical extensive lunch time, the siesta, most stores are closed. They open again in the afternoon only. <\/p>\n\n

Pla\u00e7a d\u2019Espanya<\/h3>\n\n

The central square of Felanitx is lined with quaint bars and restaurants<\/strong>. Perfect to really immerse yourself in the island life, which often takes place outside!<\/p>\n\n

Parroqu\u00eda de Sant Miquel<\/h3>\n\n

The massive church<\/strong> with its smooth high walls is almost overlooked, because it’s nestled between the small streets in the center of Felanitx. Interesting: Opposite the main portal at Pla\u00e7a de Sa Font de Margalida<\/strong> is a staircase down to the fountain of<\/strong> the same name, which once served as a source of drinking water!<\/p>\n\n

Market in Felanitx<\/h3>\n\n

The quiet place turns into a big outdoor event on Sunday morning: it’s market day! The market of Felanitx<\/strong> is very popular and well attended in the region, even among locals. Here you will find a mixed market offer of regional food from local farmers and producers, textiles, plants and typical Mallorcan products<\/a>. The market is held every Sunday from 9am – 1pm<\/strong> and is spread throughout the small city centre. <\/p>\n\n

Here’s an overview of all markets on the island: The most beautiful markets on Mallorca<\/a><\/p>\n\n

You’ll find a small but nice breakfast\/brunch\/coffee menu and a tasteful interior here! Caf\u00e9 Candela is run by a lovely German couple and located right in the middle of the pedestrian zone of Felanitx. Don’t miss! <\/p>\n\n

Calvalry<\/h3>\n\n

A short walk from the center, you’ll reach Carrer del Call<\/strong>, which leads up to the Calvary<\/strong>. On top of the mountain there is a small chapel and you’ll have a nice view of Felanitx. Anyway, the Calvary with its path is not as imposing as the one in Pollen\u00e7a (which is really worth seeing!).<\/p>\n\n
