Things to see and do with kids in Mallorca

Although when most travellers think of Mallorca they will picture wild parties and young tourists hell bent on having a raucous time, Mallorca's quieter resorts are fantastic places for families with children to take a summer holiday.

Puerto Pollensa and Cala d'Or are relatively quiet resorts with uncrowded beaches, great places for the kids to build sand castles and play with buckets and spades - just remember to pack sunscreen, as temperatures in mid-summer can be searing. El Arenal boasts an enormous and incredibly popular water park, while you can also take the kids go-karting in Magaluf, or horse-riding in Alcudia. A trip to Marineland (close to Costa d'en Blanes) to watch the dolphins and sea lions perform is also a must for family vacationers in Mallorca, as is a visit to the Mallorca Aquarium in Porto Cristo.

On days when outdoor activities are not an option, many hotels feature kids clubs, indoor children's playgrounds, or even scheduled movie days to keep the young ones out of mischief.
