Early springtime could be considered one of the prettiest\ntimes of the year to visit Mallorca when the almond trees that carpet the\nisland begin to sprout fragrant blossom. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re thinking about escaping to some much-needed\nsunshine in early spring, take a look at the following reasons why Mallorca\nwould make an excellent choice of destination. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The landscape comes alive with colour<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mallorca boasts an incredibly beautiful landscape, with the\nmighty Serra de Tramuntana Mountains making up almost a third of the island and\na stunning coastline peppered by small coves and beguiling bays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During early spring, the meadows, fields, mountains, valleys\nand gorges, become alive with colour, vitality and fragrance, as flowers and\nblossom begin to bloom, creating a vista crying out to be explored, enjoyed and\nphotographed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lack of crowds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given its beauty and year-round sunshine, it\u2019s not\nsurprising that Mallorca remains a top tourist destination. Early spring is a\ngood time to visit the island when it\u2019s notably quieter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without the crowds of the summer, the beginning of spring\ncan be one of the best times to experience Mallorca\u2019s historical and cultural\nlandmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy cycling and hiking \n<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a distinct lack of people, early springtime is also one\nof the best seasons to meander the network of paths and trails that snake\naround the island\u2019s coast and interior either on foot or cycle. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the climate warming up but void of the intensity of the\nheat of the summer, top international cycling teams choose to train on Mallorca\nin early spring, who test their fitness on gruelling climbs like Sa Calobra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy a boat trip <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The crystal-clear water that laps Mallorca\u2019s shores can be\nenjoyed at the start of spring, though with the water being still on the chilly\nside, embarking on a boat trip that explores the beautiful bays and coves that\nmake up the shoreline, could be the best way to discover the island from the\nwater during this time of year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
