Mallorca is redefining what it means to be a world-class destination by putting responsible tourism at the heart of its future. Known for its breathtaking landscapes, rich culture, and warm hospitality, the island is now leading a bold transformation toward sustainable and conscious travel.
From the majestic Serra de Tramuntana to its charming villages and coastline, Mallorca’s natural beauty is matched only by its deep-rooted commitment to heritage. Through the recently rebranded Fundació Turisme Responsable de Mallorca, the island has reaffirmed its long-term pledge to preserve its environment, culture, and communities.
At the center of this initiative is The Pledge—a Manifesto for Responsible Tourism. This guiding roadmap calls for shared responsibility, respect for local life, and environmental stewardship, aiming to balance visitor enjoyment with the well-being of residents.
“Mallorca is a shared home—whether for a few days or a lifetime,” the manifesto states. “It must be cared for with the same respect we give to what we love most.”
The Pledge encourages both visitors and locals to adopt simple but impactful habits, such as:
- Leaving no waste in nature and using designated recycling points.
- Respecting wildlife and natural habitats, including beaches and hiking trails.
- Choosing sustainable transport, reducing water and energy use.
- Supporting local artisans, cuisine, and eco-conscious accommodations.
Going beyond environmental measures, Mallorca’s tourism shift is also structural and strategic. Through innovation, entrepreneurship, and digitalisation, the island is building a circular economy model that enhances visitor experience while safeguarding its resources.
With partnerships across the private sector, and the involvement of residents and tourists, Mallorca is setting a new standard in ethical tourism—not just for Spain, but for the world.
