The past:Steer clear of congested resorts like Magaluf and Playa de Palma, where the hotels can be outdated and the atmosphere is downmarket.
Tourist menus:Avoid restaurants on the seafront offering typical English dishes. Mallorca produces good wines, cheeses and olive oils, and has an earthy regional cuisine well worth trying – look for tapas bars and restaurants offering cuina mallorquína.
Cap de Formentor:This craggy peninsula in the northeast of the island may be very scenic, but it becomes one big traffic jam at peak times.
