Palma Nova is a brilliant little resort located in the south of Majorca, its neighbour is the lively resort of Magaluf, although Palma Nova is nearly as lively as Magalluf! Just a little tamer, which therefore makes it a more suited and popular destination for families. Although it may be difficult to see now, but Palma Nova was one of the earliest purpose built holiday resorts on the island. The original fishing harbour still remains, but fishing boats are now in the minority when compared to the large expensive yachts that are moored in the nautical club and marina.
