The imposing Gothic cathedral, Sa Seu, dominates Palma’s skyline. For modern-day eye candy, the Es Baluard museum, on Plaça Porta de Santa Catalina, has exhibitions showcasing works by Picasso and Dalí (www.esbaluard.org). The 10th-century Arab baths in Palma are a rare reminder of the Moorish period of Mallorca’s history. There’s no bathing these days, but you can see the underground chambers and relax in the flower-filled courtyard. Santa Maria is a pretty municipality, just 15 minutes from Palma’s nightlife and Inca’s shopping outlets and perfect for an afternoon’s exploring. Stroll through the historic centre to Casa de la Vila, the 17th-century town hall, or admire the baroque parish church, with its beautiful tiled campanile.
