About Mallorca

Mallorca is the largest of Spain’s Balearic Islands, in the western Mediterranean. In Spain the bathing season and the census of bathing zones are set with each autonomous community — here the Balearic Islands — and every zone is reported nationally through the NÁYADE system.

How this page is defined: official EEA bathing waters reported by Spain whose coordinates fall inside a boundary drawn around Mallorca. Coordinates are reported by the national authority.

How to read this map: Each dot is one official bathing water, coloured by its 2025 rating; select a dot to open that site. Coloured areas are the regions; region names link to their pages. Sea and large lakes are blue, neighbouring countries grey. Positions: official EEA coordinates. Boundaries: Eurostat NUTS 2024, generalised (© EuroGeographics); lakes: Natural Earth. Outlines are simplified, so a few shoreline dots can sit just offshore.

Mallorca by area

Each official site is grouped under the nearest of 8 reference towns, measured in a straight line from its reported coordinates. This is an orientation aid, not a municipal boundary.
