Creator's Key Takeaways

Palmer is the capital city of not only Morca but also of the Boleric Islands themselves, but from our point of view, it is also the most important cruise port in the archipelago.

Annoyingly, it did cost $20 for a shutter bus by the ship, and even then, we only got dropped off on the edge of town and not in the center itself.

So for the attractions of Palmer, we give it a 7 out of 10 rating.

So when it comes to the excursions on offer in Palmer, you are a little bit limited and they are a bit repetitive when you compare them to other port in the region.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Consider booking a coach tour of the city to avoid high shuttle prices, especially if you have mobility issues.
โœ“Explore the historic Castell de Belva for great harbor views between the cruise terminal and city center.
โœ“Visit the old town of Palmer to see buildings and streets from its Islamic past.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Mobility issues due to long walks โ€” Book a coach tour or use the paid shuttle to the town, but note it still requires a walk.
Limited excursions compared to other ports โ€” Consider the historic train trip to Solair or vineyard tours for variety.
