Where can I find the best ice cream or dessert shops along Palma's seafront promenade?

Locals often head to Palma's Paseo Marítimo for a sweet refreshment after a stroll or an evening out. One favourite is a traditional gelateria near the marina, known for its creamy scoops made with local ingredients, including flavors like almond from Mallorca’s orchards and fresh fig. The welcoming atmosphere and sea views make it a perfect spot to unwind with a cone while watching the yachts bobbing in the harbor.

A short walk along the promenade leads to charming cafés serving classic ensaimadas alongside artisan ice cream and homemade pastries. Many patrons enjoy sitting on the terraces to soak up the lively ambiance and glimpse the cathedral spire across the bay. Try a cup of coffee with sobrassada-filled sweets or a refreshing scoop of lemon or blood orange gelato, reflecting the island’s citrus heritage. Whether it’s a casual gelato or a decadent dessert, the seafront offers plenty to satisfy any sweet tooth in Palma.
