Where can we find beautiful spots to have a barbecue with a view in Mallorca?

Many visitors assume that beaches are the only places to enjoy good food outdoors here, but the island’s diverse landscape actually offers some spectacular scenic overlooks perfect for barbecues. One popular area is the Serra de Tramuntana, where spots near Deià or Valldemossa provide sweeping views of the rugged mountains cascading into the Mediterranean. Small clearings along Ma-10 often welcome picnickers who bring portable grills, creating memorable meals amidst pine scent and sea breezes. Watching the sunset from one of these viewpoints while grilling local sobrasada or fresh seafood is truly a special experience.

For a coastal barbecue with a difference, the headland around Cap de Formentor captivates many. Although open flames are regulated, there are designated areas near Cala Figuera and the lighthouse where you can cook safely. The panoramic views here stretch over turquoise coves and golden sands like those at Cala Llombards below. Alternatively, inland near the town of Soller, the tram ride provides access to picnic spots in the orange groves where grilling a pa amb oli and local sausages makes a relaxed, authentic lunch. Just be sure to respect local fire bans during the dry season and leave no trace behind to keep these places pristine for future visitors.
