Eating by the sea
Eating by the sea is one of the best things you can do in Mallorca: the day's fish and rice dishes on terraces over the rocks, beach shacks right by a cove and harbour restaurants with the boats in front of you. Book and ask for the front row, which fills up first, especially at lunchtime in summer and at weekends. If it's very windy, look for a sheltered terrace on the opposite coast. Ask the price of fish by weight before ordering, and at the coves check how parking works: sometimes you have to leave the car a long way off.
