Almond Trees Blossom in Mallorca 2025

Products made of almonds are famous all around the world but not many had a chance to witness just how beautiful the flowers of almond trees are during the blossom period.

Almond Tree Blossom Season

From late January to late February or early March, about five million almond trees on Mallorca turn into pale pink fluffy clouds. The winters in Mallorca tend to be fairly short, dry, and warm, but if the temperatures drop, almond trees can bloom later in the season. However, Mallorcan valleys are known for their warm weather, which never drops below zero. The first flowers bloom in late January around Llucmajor, then in central Mallorca, around Palma de Mallorca, and on the northwest coast.

Best Spots to See Almond Blossoms

Almond blossoms are hard to miss, especially because of their rich sweet aroma. When you visit mountainous monasteries during almond blossom season, you’ll be treated to stunning views known as "Mallorcan Snow," with soft pink clouds of petals. Almond trees grow all across the island, but the highest density is found on the eastern coast in the town of Son Servera. Additionally, the villages of Soller, Bunyola, and Valldemossa also boast picturesque fields of almond blossoms.

Son Servera

Although Son Servera is not known for being a major almond manufacturer, the city continues to annually welcome visitors to its beautiful almond tree fields. An 18th-century Ca S’Hereu estate is one of the most frequented spots for the beautiful sight of hundreds of pinkish flowers set against the backdrop of historical architecture. The estate also hosts an almond blossom fair on the Sunday in early February.

Fira de la flor d'ametller or Fair of Blooming Almonds (early February)

Annually, at the beginning of February, the Fira de la flor d'ametller (the Fair of Blooming Almonds) is held in the countryside of Son Servera on the grounds of Ca S’Hereu estate. Various goods which are made of almonds are sold there as well. The vendors offer almond wool, almond flowers, and almonds themselves. You can even purchase equipment used for harvesting and preparing nuts. And, of course, traditional Mallorqui music accompanies the event at every corner.

Soller

A great way to enjoy the blossom sights in Mallorca is by taking a vintage train between Palma de Mallorca and Soller. The train is temporarily closed until the 30th of January, but you still have a chance to take a scenic ride in February. The train departs from the train station at Palma de Mallorca, passes Son Sardina, and continues down the rails in Part Forana.

There, passengers have a chance to witness beautiful almond blossoms on both sides of the train. Train departs from Palma at 10:50 am, 1:30 pm, and 7:30 pm. Tickets vary from €11 to €28, depending on the route. There are also almond trees in Port de Soller, around 7 minutes from the bus stop.

Bunyola

Central Mallorca, including the village of Bunyola, is known for being the heart of almond production. Discover the scenic fields of almond trees at Raixa estate, a countryside mansion with a long history dating back to the 13th century and surrounded by scenic Serra de Tramuntana. Admission to the mansion is completely free. Additionally, there is a large car park with lots of parking options.

Traditional Mallorcan Dishes from Almonds

Almonds are usually harvested around September, which makes it a perfect season to sample and cook various almond-based goodies. Gató de almendra, a traditional almond and egg-based cake, has been a staple of Mallorcan cuisine for centuries and is especially loved during the almond harvesting season. Almond soups, yogurt with almonds, and almond ice cream are some of the other dishes you can enjoy during this time.
