Palma Seafront Run, Mallorca (9 km)
A flat 9 km coastal run from Palma along the seafront — promenade, marina, and sunset beaches south of the city.
· 1 min read
This flat 9 km loop runs along the coast just south of Palma, through Coll d’en Rabassa — a stretch of beaches, marinas, and promenades a few kilometres from the old town. I ran it out along the seafront and back before the light went. For a Spanish hill day instead of seafront, the Sant Jeroni hike at Montserrat is a very different outing; for another coastal loop, try Holyhead on Anglesey.

Stay near the water and you cannot go wrong. Watch for cyclists and pedestrians on the busier promenade sections. Bring sunscreen — there is almost no shade — and time the loop for sunset if you can.
