Car Rentals Palma de Mallorca Exploring Palma de Mallorca |
|
Aside from all the historic attractions Palma has to offer it is worth taking a drive for about an hour up to Puerto Pollensa on the north west coast. If you have no hire car available then we offer Palma De Mallorca car hire. Helle Hollis have a range of hire vehicles for you to hire. This is an old fishing village with a long narrow beach which enjoys excellent sailing and windsurfing at its southern end. This is where you can start a journey along the spine of the northern peninsula up to the spike of Formentor which juts out for twenty kilometres into the Mediterranean Sea. About six kilometres out of Puerto Pollensa you should make a stop at the Mirador de Colomer where you can enjoy fabulous views of the whole peninsula. Using your hire vehicle you can take a trip around the peninsula. Palma De Mallorca car hire is available if you are looking for a hire vehicle to explore with. Further along down pine wooded slopes is the Platja de Formentor which is a beautiful sandy beach with excellent diving. At the very tip of the peninsula is a lighthouse which was built in 1860. Sadly this cannot be visited, but there is a café nearby which on a clear day boasts views of the Island of Menorca which is 40 kms away. Formentor is a natural region with a sanctuary breeding rare birds and is a twitcher's delight. For those of you not so keen on our feathered friends there are plenty of goats wandering around and dolphins can often be sighted swimming off the coast. Another great day out is Valdemossa on the north eastern tip of Mallorca. This area sits on the slops of the Tramintana Sierra Mountains and is the picturesque resort where the infamous lovers Frederic Chopin and George Sand spent the winter of 1838. They created a great scandal staying in the Royal Carthusian Monastery and the cells they occupied are a great favourite today with visitors. This area offers spectacular scenery with the drive up from the harbour to the mountain village passing through beautiful olive and almond groves. Palma De Mallorca hire cars are a great way to take a closer look at the mountain village and will provide lots of convienience. The road network all over the Mallorca is very good. Obviously having a car here would greatly enhance your trip. If you contact Helle Hollis they are experts in this area and will match your requirements to the car that will best suit your needs. Palma De Mallorca hire cars can be quickly arranged by Helle Hollis. |
