Mallorca with children
Mallorca offers a number of different opportunities for families with children, and the area of Playa de Palma, where the conference hotel is located, is just perfect for spending some days off with the whole family. First of all Playa de Palma beach is long, sandy, clean, and safe. In April you can sunbathe, build incredible sand castles, walk, play soccer or volley, and maybe even swim in the sea, if the weather is nice.If you feel like discovering a great attraction, Palma Aquarium is just a few minutes away. Palma Aquarium is much more than a marine park; it is also a leisure and entertainment centre for adults and children of all ages and it has the deepest shark tank in Europe. You can even dive with the sharks if you dare!
Renting a bike in one of the different shops or skating is also a good choice for a sunny day, because just in front of the Nautic Hotel**** you can take the cycling lane that takes you towards El Arenal or to Palma, which is 7 km away (it will take about 45 minutes to get to Palma at normal speed, maybe too long for the kids… or their parents?). Willing to try a new sport? Why not take a paddle surf class at Bonaona, where both children and adults are welcome? It is also a great spot for a morning coffee while reading the newspaper (or drawing…) For more information you can contact Alessia Comis: info@pidelaluna.com
