If you have access to a car, certainly worth a visit is the Botanicactus garden.
Not only is this the largest botanical garden in Europe, covering an area of
150,000 m2, it also has the largest navigable lake in the Balearic Islands.
Once inside you’ll find a collection of over than 1,000 types of plants ranging
from the common Majorcan cactus, to a 300 year old specimen of the “Carnegie
Giant” cactus from Arizona. The Botanicactus is open every day of the year from
around 9:00am to dusk and entrance to the park is quite reasonable at around
£4.00 each for adults. Contact details are:
