Majorca Island Warnings Or Dangers Tips by sourbugger Top 5 Page for this destination

It seemed like a good idea at the time...

The seaside tradition of the rude or downright mucky postcard lives on in Majorca.

After several sangreias, it may seem like a laugh to send nice old kindly Uncle Cyril a postcard of a three-breasted Spanish madonna with an unfeasibly large and hairy 'poodle' or nice Aunt Edna who has lived all her life in a small conservative village in Hampshire a postcard of a macho hunk balancing between two chairs with a large weight hanging off his todger - but they may not see the funny side when it pops (or plops) through the letterbox (oh er Misses !)

Trust me on this one.

Beware of those not clad in Lycra....

When hiring a car remember that cycling is extrememly popular on the Island and with a lack of dedicated cycle paths you can find cyclists flying round hairpin bends at you at any time.

Most of those who are clad in skin-tight Lyrca are well experienced and keep well to their side of the road, but you only need an inexperienced rider will full panniers to result in a nasty mess.
