Where are the best scenic viewpoints to visit while driving around Mallorca?

Some of the island's most unforgettable viewpoints can be found along the winding roads of the Serra de Tramuntana. The Ma-10, in particular, provides spectacular vantage points where sheer cliffs plunge into the Mediterranean below, such as Mirador Es Colomer near Port de Pollenca, offering sweeping panoramas of the rugged north coast and the bay. Another must-see is the viewpoint above Formentor lighthouse, which rewards early risers with breathtaking sunrises over turquoise waters.

On the way from Palma to Soller via the Ma-11, several small pullouts reveal lush valleys and terraced hillsides dotted with ancient olive trees and charming villages like Deia. From the train journey on the historic Soller railway, the views of orange groves framed by mountains are equally captivating yet more intimate. Along the east coast, the Ma-15 near Artà leads to quiet coves such as Cala Torta, where lookout points capture peaceful stretches of untouched shoreline.

Exploring these scenic spots by car or the reliable TIB bus network allows travelers to combine dramatic nature with local culture. Stop in Valldemossa for a coffee and some ensaimada, then sip a glass of Binissalem wine while gazing over vineyards in the distance. Each viewpoint carries a sense of discovery and invites reflection — perfect moments to appreciate the diverse beauty that defines the island’s landscape.
