Questions and answers

What day is the Felanitx market and what time does it close?

On Sundays, about 8:00-13:00 (guidebooks give 8:30-13:30 or 9:00-13:30). One source advises arriving before 11:00 to avoid the worst of the crowds.

Where can I park in Felanitx on a Sunday?

We could not confirm car park locations or rates. The stalls spread over a large part of the centre, so it is best to arrive early and look for a space on the outskirts.

How do I get from Palma to Felanitx without a car?

By TIB bus 501 from the Intermodal station, about 55-75 min, with about 67 services in both directions on a weekday (winter) and about 56 on Sunday. Line 512 runs from Portocolom.

When is the quietest time to visit Felanitx?

Editorial assessment, not measured: on weekdays other than Sunday and out of season; on Sundays before 11:00.
