The Mallorca/Majorca region
Majorca (Mallorca) is the largest island of Spain. It is located in the Mediterranean Sea and part of the Balearic Islands archipelago. Like the other Balearic Islands, Ibiza, Formentera, and Minorca, the island is a popular tourist destination. In Germany and the United Kingdom, where package tourism to the island started in May 1952, Majorca has remained a popular destination. The capital of the island, Palma, is also the capital of the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands. The Cabrera archipelago is administratively grouped with Majorca (in the municipality of Palma). The anthem of Majorca is La Balanguera. Famous Majorcans include writer and philosopher, Ramon Llull, and Junípero Serra, the Franciscan friar who founded the mission chain in Alta California. From the 19th century, the military commander, Joaquin Jovellar y Soler, and two time Spanish Prime Minister, Antonio Maura Montaner. More recently, sportsmen from the island include top tennis players Rafael Nadal and Carlos Moya.
Santa Ponsa / Calvia area
Santa Ponsa is a holiday resort in the south-west of Mallorca. Located in the municipality of Calvià, it is 18 kilometres from the capital Palma de Mallorca.
The resort is popular with Irish and German tourists. It is predominantly a summer resort with the season lasting from May to October. A family resort with plenty of bars, restaurants and nightly entertainment, and a clean and safe beach.
Santa Ponsa is one of the few Mallorcan resorts with a history, because it was here that King Jaime the First (Jaume in Catalan) landed on 10 September 1229 in his quest to conquer the island and take it from the Moors after more than 300 years of Muslim rule. Mallorca became part of the Kingdom of Aragon following Jaime's conquest, and was later annexed to the Kingdom of Spain.
A cross at the entrance to the marina marks the spot where Jaime landed. Every September there is a grand fiesta to commemorate the landing with a mock battle between the Moors and Christians on the beach. It is a two week fiesta which incorporates a pop concert and firework display.
There are two top golf courses in Santa Ponsa but visitors are only allowed to use the Santa Ponsa I course which, like Santa Ponsa II, has hosted a PGA European Tour event.
How to get there
Santa Ponsa is located 20 miles away from the airport. Easily accessible whith commercial shuttles and taxis.
