Creator's Key Takeaways

Disembarkation was really easy. We got off the ship in no time at all

The cathedral area itself is fantastic where there's opportunities to visit the palace

Palmer is a bustling city with many shops, lots and lots of tourists. It was incredibly busy.

The tapas was delicious. We had some trouitzo. We had some bread with some alley and we also have patatas braavas

On Day 6 of our Costa Diadema France, Italy and Spain cruise we docked in Palma de Mallorca and we were looking forward to exploring the area around the Cathedral. We did not book any excursions or transfers with the cruise line and made our own way around the city to and from the cruise terminal and visited some key attractions.

If your cruise ship docks in Palma, you’ll find yourself with endless opportunities to explore this vibrant, historic, and sun-soaked city. Whether you only have a few hours or a full day, Palma offers the perfect mix of culture, history, shopping, food, and seaside relaxation. Just a short drive or bus ride from the Palma cruise port, the city center is compact, walkable, and filled with stunning sights. The highlight for most visitors is the breathtaking La Seu Cathedral (Palma Cathedral), an architectural masterpiece overlooking the harbor. Right next to it you’ll find the Royal Palace of La Almudaina, a reminder of Mallorca’s rich history and royal heritage. As you wander through Palma’s Old Town, expect narrow medieval streets, charming courtyards, boutique shops, and local cafΓ©s serving delicious tapas.
