Santa Ponsa trip planner

Nestled in a sheltered cove set against the stunning mountain backdrop, Santa Ponsa is an internationally famous summer resort. Its large blue flag beach backed by a lively promenade draws heaps of holidaymakers from Western Europe, but a Santa Ponsa vacation has so much more to offer than an indulgent splurge on the silky soft white sand. At first glance this coastal town may appear as just another family-friendly resort with tastefully constructed villas and apartments dotting the hills on each side of the bay, yet it holds a special place in the history of Majorca as the site where King James I of Aragon landed and took the island from the Moors in the 13th century. Time your visit around the first Saturday in September to watch the mock battle between the "Moors" and the "Christians." The town's sprawling outskirts offer home to top-notch golf resorts.
