Gentle holiday activities on Mallorca

It's often the little things that make a big impact: Mallorca is one of the most popular holiday destinations in the Mediterranean and has never had the image of an eco-island due to the number of visitors. But the Spanish island is also seeing an increase in soft tourism initiatives that want to give something back to the island and, above all, protect what Mallorca is blessed with: wonderful beaches & stunningly beautiful nature. Since 2020, a new tourism levy has been supporting projects in the area of environmental and landscape protection, the hotel industry is constantly coming up with new ideas to conserve resources and the island's experience market has also been given a new facet with the sustainability factor.

At the same time, two trends have emerged in recent years: the desire of many visitors to experience Mallorca in a sustainable and different way and, secondly, to slow down more on holiday, perhaps consuming less, but more intensively. This has brought tours and activities to the fore that are more considerate, allow more freedom and are less focussed on fleeting entertainment. If you want to experience Mallorca sustainably, reduce noise and speed. Gentle tours are quieter and slower. When it comes to eco-tourism on Mallorca, there is no way around the walking stick. There is no slower way to get around the island than on foot - but you can enjoy every metre of the walk and the view.

Slowing down on the water is also a major theme and since the invention of SUP sports, surfboards for paddling on the surface of the Mediterranean have become indispensable. Sailing is also one of the green water sports on Mallorca - if the wind really is the driving force and care is also taken to treat nature with respect. Sustainability is not synonymous with sacrifice. This can be witnessed by people who enjoy the thrill of ballooning on Mallorca and cyclists who ride up to the beach on an e-bike.

Sustainability management on Mallorca also includes balancing out the high season with millions of visitors every year and attracting more holidaymakers to the island in autumn or winter. A time that is particularly rich and charming. With many opportunities to be active outdoors. And last but not least, something that holidaymakers can also influence, it's about supporting the local culture: for example on a tapas tour in the old town.
