There will still be plenty of time to spend outdoors, but the beach weather is now a thing of the past. Visiting the capital city of Majorca makes for a fantastic day activity. The town offers beautiful historic architecture, including a cathedral, plazas and an old citadel. It's a wonderful place to simply stroll around inhere are plenty of shops and eateries as well.
Another suggested thing to do is renting a car and going on a scenic drive around this stunning island.
