Creator's Key Takeaways
We're on the uh shuttle. Look at that. We got the big cruise ship behind us.
Should have purchased those tickets in advance. But we're going to um walk through down to the uh one of the main uh plazas.
This beach seems very nice. Very quiet today. I thought it'd be busier Saturday.
We had a great day in Palma de Mayora.

Visiting Palma de Mallorca on a cruise and wondering what to do during your port day? In this video we explore Palma de Mallorca on our own after arriving by cruise ship. We take the MSC shuttle from the cruise port, walk around the cathedral and old town, attempt to ride the historic train to Sóller, and then head to Palmanova Beach for a relaxing afternoon. If you're visiting Palma on a Mediterranean cruise, this video shows what a DIY cruise port day looks like without booking a ship excursion. What you'll see in this video • Taking the MSC cruise shuttle into Palma • Walking through Palma Cathedral and old town • Visiting the historic Sóller train station • Exploring Palmanova Beach • Renting a pedal boat with a slide • Returning to the ship for the evening We’re a family of five who loves cruising and exploring ports on our own. On this channel we share cruise tips, port guides, and travel experiences from destinations throughout the Mediterranean, Mexico, and the Caribbean. 👉 Cruising soon?

En el vlog de hoy tomamos el autobús lanzadera (shuttle) de MSC desde el puerto, caminamos por la zona de la catedral y la Plaça Mayor, intentamos (sin éxito) tomar el tren histórico a Sóller, y luego cambiamos de plan para disfrutar de un día de playa en Palmanova, con hidropedal con tobogán para los niños. Si visitas Palma en un crucero por el Mediterráneo y quieres explorar por tu cuenta sin excursión del barco, este video te muestra de forma realista: - Cómo funciona el shuttle del crucero vs caminar desde el puerto - Cómo es la zona de la catedral y el centro histórico - Por qué conviene comprar los boletos del tren a Sóller con anticipación - Ir en taxi/Uber a Palmanova para un día de playa más tranquilo - Alquilar patines de agua con tobogán y disfrutar del mar poco profundo - Regresar al barco para cerrar el día en el champagne bar Somos una familia de cinco que ama los cruceros y explorar los puertos por libre.
