Felanitx
Felanitx
An inland city in the southeast of Mallorca at the centre of the Pla i Llevant wine region, known for its Sunday market and the Sant Salvador sanctuary.
Felanitx sits in the southeast of Mallorca, in rolling countryside about 50 minutes by car from Palma. It lies at the centre of one of the island's main wine regions, surrounded by vineyards and small farming villages. Most visitors come for its lively Sunday market and to drive up to the nearby sanctuary of Sant Salvador, which looks out over the whole southeast coast. It is a good place to see the quieter, traditional side of inland Mallorca.
What [Destination] is known for
Felanitx is best known as one of Mallorca's oldest wine towns. Vines have been grown here for centuries, and the area produces reds from local grapes such as Callet and Manto Negro, with respected bodegas like Anima Negra based nearby. The town did well enough from wine in the 19th century to be granted the title of city in 1886, when it was one of the largest places on the island. Its other great draw stands on the hills just outside the centre. The sanctuary of Sant Salvador, a monastery founded in the 14th century, sits on a peak at over 500 metres and gives some of the widest views in the southeast. On a neighbouring hill are the ruins of Castell de Santueri, a rock-cut medieval castle built on much older foundations. In the town itself, the Sunday morning market fills the streets around the church of Sant Miquel, with local pottery laid out on the church steps. Felanitx has a long tradition of ceramics and of growing capers, and the market is the best place to try both.

Things to do in [Destination]
For wine lovers, the best thing to do is tour one of the local bodegas and taste the reds the area is known for. If you enjoy walking, follow the old pilgrim path up to the Sant Salvador sanctuary, or take the rougher trail to the ruins of Castell de Santueri, both with long views over the coast. History fans can look for the Bronze Age remains at Closos de Can Gaia. Try to be here on a Sunday, when the market takes over the centre.
Where to stay in [Destination] (City)
Felanitx is a quiet inland city best visited as a day trip from the southeast coast resorts like Cala d'Or or Porto Colom. A few rural hotels and fincas sit in the surrounding wine country.
Food and drink in [Destination]
Felanitx is wine and caper country. The local reds, made from Callet and Manto Negro grapes, appear on tables across the town, and the small green capers grown here are prized enough to be called green pearls. Look for both at the Sunday market, along with the town's traditional pottery.

Travel tips for visiting [Destination]
The Sunday market runs from about 9am to 1pm, so arrive in the morning for the best of the stalls. You can drive up to the Sant Salvador sanctuary, and there are simple rooms there if you want to stay overnight for the views. Wear proper shoes for the climb to Castell de Santueri, as the ground is rough. Autumn is grape harvest season, the best time for wine lovers to visit. Many local bodegas ask you to book a tasting in advance, so check before you go. Felanitx is quietest midweek, when it feels like a working country town rather than a market-day crowd.
