Rules in force · 9Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window…
  • Europe ↗Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window, counted across all 29 Schengen states together — not per country; the Entry/Exit System now logs each crossing, so an overstay is detected automatically.
  • Europe ↗On the first Schengen entry since EES began, non-EU travellers give four fingerprints and a face photo at the border instead of a passport stamp; there is nothing to apply for or pay in advance.
  • Iberia ↗Plan meals on the Iberian clock: Spanish kitchens serve lunch from about 13:30–14:00 and dinner from 20:30–21:00; Portugal eats an hour or so earlier. Early evenings are for tapas or petiscos, not full meals.
  • Iberia ↗Inland Spain and Portugal (Seville, Córdoba, Madrid, the Alentejo) pass 40 °C in heatwaves from late June to August: sightsee before 11:00 and after 18:00, and keep July–August for the coasts and the green north.
  • Iberia ↗Andorra and Gibraltar have their own border and customs rules and are reached only through Spain (or France for Andorra); read their pages before adding them, especially if you hold a limited Schengen visa.
  • Spain ↗Spain is in the Schengen area. Check the entry rules for your passport on official sources; the EU's Entry/Exit System registers non-EU visitors at the first Schengen border, and further pre-travel authorisation rules are being introduced.
  • Spain ↗High-speed trains have airport-style baggage screening at the station and boarding gates that close a few minutes before departure: arrive early.
  • Spain ↗Carry your passport or ID: police may ask for it, and hotels must register every guest's document.
  • Spain ↗The Alhambra in Granada and the Sagrada Família in Barcelona sell timed tickets that sell out weeks ahead in season; book on the official sites before you fix your dates.

Manacor is the inland market town that governs the east coast resorts, 50 min by bus or just over an hour by train from Palma. Tourists are sparse and few stop over, so it is cheap for Mallorca and useful as a base for the Drach caves, the Llevant coast and the Rafa Nadal Academy. Most travellers see it as a half-day or a single night, not a holiday.

Arrive & move

Airports are listed under At a glance; this is how to move once you are in

Getting around

The centre is small enough to walk: station to the parish church is about 10 min. TIB buses 401, 411, 412 and 417 link the town with the coast and neighbouring villages, but you may not ride the airport bus A42 on the local Manacor–Cala Bona section. A car helps for the caves, the Ma-15 and the country hotels; roads are good and distances suit cycling.

Eat & sleep

Which area to sleep in

Where to sleep

Areas, not hotels: pick the one that fits your arrival time and plans.

Manacor centre

Around Plaça del Convent and the station; walkable, few hotels, best for one night with bags.

Sant Llorenç des Cardassar

Village 10 km northeast with the area's country hotels and spas; you need a car.

Cala Millor / Sa Coma

Beach resorts 15–20 min away by bus 401 or 412; pick these for a beach holiday, not for Manacor.

Watch out

Safety

Manacor is a working town and feels safe by day and evening; the real risks are summer heat, long siesta closures and unlit rural roads if you cycle after dark.
  • Shops and sights close for a long midday break, often 13:30–17:00; plan mornings and early evening.
  • Some town-centre venues and bars have closed or changed hands since 2024: check before you walk out.
  • July and August are hot and the coast resorts fill; book beds and cave tickets ahead.
  • The airport bus A42 cannot be used for the local hop between Manacor and Cala Bona.
