-
Morning
This drive takes a full day, setting out at 10am or so.
Start at Andratx and take the coast road, C710, north. At the point where the road encounters the coastline, you will find the Mirador de Ricardo Roca viewpoint and the Es Grau café (see Es Grau, Carretera Andratx-Estellencs). At Estellencs , you can also stop for shopping and refreshment.
As the road leaves the town and climbs, there’s a stopping point to the left where you can look back at the view. Next stop is the magnificent Mirador de ses Anímes .
At Banyalbufar , note the remarkable terraced hillsides. A little way on, you’ll see signs for Sa Granja . Head there for lunch and a good look around the mansion and grounds.
Afternoon
After lunch, there’s more historic sightseeing at Valldemossa , where you can check out the former monastery, museum and old town.
Carrying on north, pop into Son Marroig and then wind around into fantastic Deià, where you can stop for a stroll.
Continuing on, don’t blink or you’ll miss Mallorca’s smallest village, LlucAlcari; and finally, head for the main square in Sóller, to have a drink at one of the cafés, then take the quaint tram down to the Port de Sóller for dinner and the rich nightlife.
