Banyalbufar
Nestled on the dramatic west coast of Mallorca, the village of Banyalbufar stands as one of the island's most captivating and beautifully preserved settlements. It is scenically positioned within the majestic Serra de Tramuntana mountain range, its ancient stone houses and cultivated terraces appearing to cascade down the steep slopes towards the sparkling Mediterranean Sea. The very name 'Banyalbufar' whispers of its deep past, a fusion of the Arabic 'banya' (built) and 'bahar' (sea), translating to "founded beside the sea", or poetically, "nailed in the sea". This authentic village, located approximately 25-35 kilometers from Palma, offers a UNESCO World Heritage landscape, rich Moorish heritage, and a treasured agricultural tradition of wine production, particularly the revived Malvasia grape.
