Getting around
The island bus service is fairly comprehensive and frequent, though routes can be indirect and slow. Journeys north from Magaluf are best made via Palma. Hire cars are the best way to get around the holiday island. Bikes and motorbikes are for rent but beware that traffic is heavy around the resorts, particularly in the summer. Taxi ranks are dotted throughout the resort.
Exploring further afield
Splashing out
Or get a taxi from Magaluf to Palma and start your night out in the island's most decadent bar, Abaco in the old town (Carrer Sant Joan 1). It may charge a premium for its sumptuous cocktails, but for the chance to recline in a romantic renaissance old courtyard awash with fresh fruit and flowers it is well worth it. An alternative drop-dead trendy venue is Puro Beach Club on the seafront (Carre Pagell; www.purobeach.com). Dress to impress and come here to watch the sun go down.
