The best souvenirs aren’t trinkets you’ll forget in a drawer. They’re handmade, useful objects you fall in love with. Pieces that hold a story, crafted by people whose hands shape the island’s soul. You find them not in souvenir stalls, but in sun-dappled workshops, backyard ateliers, and old family shops with creaking wooden doors. These souvenirs from Mallorca become part of your everyday life, and each time you use them, they take you right back to the Mediterranean. Let’s go on a little journey around the island to find them.
1. Swimmng in Style: Suro Swimwear
Discover this year’s collection of Suro’s swimwear. Made from recycled materials, Margarita Payeras’ unmistakable pieces are inspired by urban fashion and streetwear. Like the Positano one-piece in azure and storm blue. Sleek, flattering, and practical enough to dive straight into the sea without ever adjusting a strap. Available at select stores and online.
2. A Bowl with Soul: Terra Cuita
Drive inland to Pòrtol and you’ll hear the soft hum of a pottery wheel. Inside Terra Cuita, rows of bowls, jugs, and greixoneres line the shelves. Representing more than 150 years of experience, craftsmanship and dedication. The large white-glazed bowl with painted corals is perfect for fruit, but just as happy filled with salad or soup.
3. Woven Tradition: Mimbrería Vidal
Back in Palma, the scent of palm and wicker fills the emblematic store of Mimbrería Vidal. Whether at the market or on the way to the beach, a senalla with leather handles is just the perfect bag for many occasions. Handwoven with dwarf palm on Mallorca. Or if you’re traveling even lighter, choose a straw hat to protect yourself from the summer sun in style.
4. A Scent of Summer: Artisan Soap
In a small backyard in Sóller, you can watch as soap is poured into wooden molds, each bar swirled with natural oils and herbs. If you bring back a bar scented with rosemary and orange blossom, every time you use it, you’ll be back under that orange tree, listening to the bees hum.
5. For the Road: Cycling Jersey
Mallorca is a cyclist’s dream, and even if you’re more café than climb, the cycling culture is irresistible. At Cycling Planet in Alaró, you can find a color-blocking retro jersey that’s perfect for long rides, or just looking like you know how to fix a flat. And almost all of the cycling cafés in Palma have their own signature jersey, now.
6. Frame the Memory: Imprenta Nueva Balear
Inside a print shop just off Palma’s avenidas, you’ll find those unmistakable posters with a nostalgic edge that make great souvenirs from Mallorca. Imprenta Nueva Balear revives the art of letterpress and retro illustration. One poster of the Serra de Tramuntana in muted oranges and blues is like a postcard from the past, every time you walk by.
7. Clay Stories: Paparkone Ceramics
Hidden in the backyard of noble Carrer Sant Feliu, the studio of Roberto Paparkone feels like a well-kept secret you are eager to share with close friends. And his ceramics are just the kind of object you set on a table and everyone touches, asking where it’s from.
8. Sun on Your Feet: Alpargatas
Down the ancient alley in the heart of Palma, you step into Alpargatería La Concepción and will most likely leave with a pair of summer shoes. Handmade, with braided soles and a tied ribbon around the ankle, the wedge espadrilles with laces are the summer staples. Soft, simple, and designed to walk cobbled streets and sandy paths alike.
9. Thread by Thread: Teixits Vicens
At the workshop of Teixits Vicens in Pollença looms have been clacking since 1854. The store vibrates with color and rhythm. Choose a striped blue-and-green linen table runner, woven in the traditional llengües style. Running down your dining table, it’ll ground dinners with a touch of Mallorcan heritage.
10. A Taste to Take Home: Sweet and Savory
Finally, no souvenir journey ends without tasting the island. And there are plenty of opportunities. From crunchy almonds to juicy oranges, from extra virgin olive oil to sun-drenched wine. And whether you get an ensaimada or almond cake in town or last minute at the airport, it’s a bite of the island to take home. These gifts never last long, but they leave the sweetest memories.
These are the souvenirs from Mallorca that stay with you. Not on a shelf, but in your kitchen, your wardrobe, your home. They’re stories you can wear, taste, touch, and use, every single day. And with each one, a piece of the island travels with you.
