I didn't stay for long. It was february, so there were not many people in smaller parts of the city. I recommend visiting the city center but also other quieter areas. There are a lot of beaches, we even got in the water on 13th of february.

I’ve been to Palma loads of times, and honestly, it never disappoints. This time I went with my kids, and we had such a great time! We stayed in a lovely all-inclusive hotel just 10 minutes from the airport, and the whole trip only cost £400 in total – such a bargain. Palma is great whether you’re going as a couple, solo, or with family. It’s really cheap most of the year from the UK, and you don’t need a big budget at all. There’s so much to do – beaches, hikes, nightlife, and just chilling...
Posted: July 19, 2025soo: as a female solo traveller i felt overall safe, but: - i got robbed at the beach - not even only in the nights, but men are being pushy sometimes so always be careful and don’t think you’re too safe :))

Palma was amazing! We walked around the city and found the cutest little streets everywhere :) People were incredibly nice and even one night where me and my friend walked 3 hours in the middle of the night we did not fell uncomfortable for a second. Palma unites amazing beaches with warm water with a rich cultural centre and loads and loads of street music :) it was a really good experience

in Palma it is safe and convenient to travel alone. I have stayed with friends and at Urban hostel in a dormitory with many other solo travelers. For my country's currency, it is quite expensive in restaurants, but it is easy to also find good and cheaper alternatives in supermarkets. I visited a winery Marcia Batle which is near the Sant Maria train station (20 minutes from Palma). it was very affordable and interesting!
Posted: July 7, 2024Life in Palma is totally great!! I really liked being there and there were lots to see and do. I was there during three days and it was just good enough :) I stayed in an AirBnB, with a host called Miguel and all I can say is that it was 5/5!!

Posted: May 27, 2024I travelled to Palma in December so I didn’t expect the weather would be that nice. I felt quite safe even at night. There is no loud parties at night(even if there are some, they not gonna annoy you) I definitely recommend you to take your swimsuit (even in December) I saw some people swimming, the water was not cold at all. Very beautiful place and prices are adorable. For a nice dinner at the restaurant I payed 25-30 euros. The prices for coffee are incredibly cheap😄

Mallorica has a good vibes, it’s a mix of simplicity and uniqueness. People also are so friendly and nice and love live. Food also was so good especially seafood, but some restaurants doesn’t seems so fresh. It was overall special and safe

Palma is the beautiful capital of Mallorca - the island of light. It has a historic center with a lot of sites to visit - the most famous one is the cathedral. You find an outstanding number of national and international restaurants with good prices for delicious food and also some shopping areas. The beach is in walking distance - as well as the Harbour, where you can start your trip on a boat. The people are very open and relaxed; it is a place to spend a wonderful time. ☀️

I traveled around the entire island of Palma de Mallorca by bus for several days and the experience was very safe at all times. Both public transport and the tourist and residential areas feel calm, even at night. The only thing I noticed was the presence of street vendors in the center of Palma, especially around the cathedral, but at no time did I see anything unusual, harassment, or insecurity. I felt comfortable moving around on my own.

Palma is overall a fairly safe city. The main challenge is the excessive tourism in the summer and a few neighborhoods, but with a bit of awareness, you can enjoy the island peacefully and safely. I would definitely recommend it! 😊

Palma is a beatiful island full of lovely peolple. Is safe to travel alone and walk at anytime. U can come here and fell re safety. Don't have to worry about anything. I been levaing here for the last 2.years
Posted: August 25, 2025Palma is definitely a safe city. It's small, so you can easily get everywhere by simply- walking. With all touristic cities there's always some precautions to take, especially if you don't look like a local. Personally I never felt in danger.

I would say is a safe city!! Be careful at tourists places as the main square (Plaza españa) and public transport. I have seen some pickpockets on the street, that usually work with an scooter and take phones, mostly to tourist

Very safe Spanish city, very good energy, ideal for traveling and meeting people, walking the streets at any time, dressing as you like, touring the island by public transport without any fear.
