Mallorca, an island known for its beaches, charming villages and blazing sunshine - and perhaps not immediately for sustainability. But if you take a closer look, you'll notice that the island is changing. More and more travelers are looking for environmentally friendly alternatives and, lo and behold, Mallorca is now keeping up quite well. E-bikes instead of rental cars and solar roofs instead of air conditioning - the island is showing its green side.
Stay overnight sustainably: Green hotels with style
If you are looking for an environmentally friendly stay, you won't have to look far in Mallorca. More and more hotels are focusing on sustainability - without forgetting comfort. The Hotel Predi Son Jaumell in Capdepera is one such example. Here you not only get a bed to sleep in, but also a lesson in environmental friendliness. Solar energy, fresh herbs from the garden and olive oil from the trees on the doorstep make your vacation taste twice as good.
And that is just one of many. Everywhere on the island you can now find Sustainable hotelsthat surprise their guests with clever concepts. From saving water and zero-waste kitchens to the use of local materials - "green" is a top priority on Mallorca.
E-bikes and electric cars: quiet and clean on the road
If you really want to travel sustainably, it's best to leave your rental car behind. Why? Because Mallorca has developed into a real paradise for cyclists in recent years. Especially the E-bike is experiencing a boom - and rightly so. Not in the mood for strenuous climbs? No problem, the electric motor can help. And with the wind at your back, you can explore the island emission-free - from the flat coastal path all the way up to the Tramuntana.
For longer distances, by the way, there are more and more Electric cars to rent. This way you can also reach the hidden bays and mountain villages without harming the environment. Charging stations? Can now be found in many places - Mallorca is right at the forefront.
Eating with a clear conscience
Of course, sustainability doesn't stop at accommodation. The island also shows its responsible side in culinary terms. The It Rebost in Palma is a prime example of how delicious sustainability can be. Everything comes from the region - the ingredients are fresh, the distances are short and the taste is all the better. A concept that is not only good for the palate, but also for the environment.
And for those who like it a little more exclusive, the Béns d'Avall stop by Deià. Sustainability at star level is served here. Local farmers supply the ingredients and a modern version of Mallorcan cuisine is served. Regionality is not just a buzzword here - it's a philosophy.
Sustainability as the future of travel
Mallorca has recognized that sustainable tourism is the key to preserving its beauty. More and more offers are aimed at environmentally conscious travelers who want to appreciate and protect the island. From e-bikes and eco-friendly hotels to restaurants that focus on regional products - Mallorca shows how you can travel consciously and still enjoy yourself.
