Muro
Muro, Balearic Islands, Spain
Muro is a traditional Mallorcan town in the Pla de Mallorca, characterised by narrow streets, whitewashed houses and a relaxed village atmosphere; it makes a handy base between the long sandy shore of Playa de Muro and the agricultural plain inland, with a small historic centre and parish church at its heart.
What Makes It Special
Muro is a convenient gateway to S'Albufera Natural Park — one of the largest wetlands in the Balearics — offering excellent birdwatching and peaceful walking and cycling routes just a short distance from the village.
Insider Tips
Hire a bicycle and set off early to explore the flat countryside and the trails into S'Albufera for cooler temperatures and best wildlife viewing, then finish the day at nearby Playa de Muro for a swim and sunset.
