Beach holidays
Looking for sun, sea and sand? Majorca has it all! And with 300 sunshine days a year plus a warm climate and 50 km of beaches, you can dip your toes in the clear, turquoise waters almost all year round.

Beaches for all seasons
Summer, with an average temperature of 27 degrees, is the top choice for heading to one of Majorca’s more than 260 beaches. But if you like some sunshine during the cold months, spring and autumn are also an ideal time to visit for enjoying warmer days.
Many larger beaches also offer beach activities and water sports, such as snorkelling, diving, parasailing, pedalo hire, boat trips, surfing, stand-up paddling (SUP) and much more.

Perfect for beach lovers
Hotel Samos is in the Calvià region, which has 34 beaches and calas alone, many recognised with awards. With such a variety of destinations, there’s something to suit every beach lover.
In addition, Magaluf’s coastal location close to major transport routes makes it a convenient base for exploring beaches both near and far on the island.
Look out for signs with words such as playa, platja, cala, caló and punta, and beaches with recognition such as the Blue Flag and Q for Quality awards.
