Manacor
07500 Manacor, Balearic Islands, Spain
Manacor is one of Mallorca’s larger inland towns on the island’s east, known for its traditional markets, longstanding craft industries (notably Majorica pearls and furniture-making) and as a practical base for nearby coastal sights such as Porto Cristo and the Cuevas del Drach.
What Makes It Special
Manacor is the hometown of Rafael Nadal and hosts the Rafa Nadal Museum Xperience and nearby tennis academy—an uncommon cultural and sporting attraction for visitors to the island.
Insider Tips
Visit on a market morning (Tuesdays or Saturdays) to sample local produce and crafts, then combine that with a short trip to the Cuevas del Drach in Porto Cristo; buses link Manacor with Palma and the coast but hiring a car gives more flexibility for nearby attractions.
