Spain, Sunny Mallorca in 1960

Ma;;orca at a time that there were relatively few tourists. Real estate was cheap. Look at the few hotels at the beaches. I suppose they aren't there anymore.

I was lucky to hoilday with my family when I was aged 9 in Majorca we stayed in Ca'n Pastilla. As a boy cars were a facination to me, so seeing those black and white Fiat taxis is so heart warming. My mother passed away 5 years ago, but my father literally soldiers on at 96 having recently remembered his time at Omaha Beach in the Medical Corp. I was lucky to have been able to enjoy a holiday such as this. Thank you Mum and Dad.

Lovely comment. Like you, as a car-addicted child, Spain was a joy in the '70s as there were so many cars unseen in the UK, some unavailable outside Spain.

Cuando mi querida tierra, queridisima isla, todavía no fue explotada😢😭😭😭

The bathing beauties(6:50)of 20th century Mallorca.i wish i had a time machine to escape from this ugly 2021!

[@carlosroig2642]

These videos are filmed in 1968 or later. Pueblo Español started on 1967 and first Citroen Dynam came to Mallorca after 1968. So the great change is done in less time. My house can be seen in these videos.

Nice video; thank you for posting. As one of the comments mentions, the cars in Palma seen at 2:01 one of them is a Seat 124 and it also shows an Austin Morris, both cars introduced in Spain in 1968,
The hotel is the Hotel Playa Marina, now Europe Playa Marina in Illetas.

If l could I’d go to Mallorca in the 1960s…greatest place and time..

[@klausgieg]

Ich bin beeindruckt. Die beste Beschreibung ist wohl "ein Mallorca, wie es heute nicht mehr existiert", sehr lehrreich.

[@mikemoreno4469]

At 7:35 I believe that to be a view from S'Illot over the Punta d'en Amer, towards Cala Millor.

[@funnelweb10]

Fantastic, I first saw Spain in 71 , wonderfull filming.

[@maheerraja3012]

Lucky u. 1970s & 1980s were the best times. I was born in1970.visited Mallorca frm Pakistan last month

[@ellcor]

The Autopista de Llevant at 1:52 was opened in 1969 so video dates anytime from then.

[@escormillos]

we did like our zoom cameras, every shot we zoomed into anything LoL LoL

International turism began in Mallorca in 1962. when first foreign tourists began to arrive.

[@michaelijsbrand]

Turism already started in the beginning of the 20th century!

[@unknownsoldiersmcisland4632]

I would say this is around 69 or 70

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

I recently saw a current video of Mallorca. The difference is tragic.

[@aimeethomson7806]

...never to be seen again

[@NYC1]

just wondering where did you get all these old videos?

[@itislulunobody]

Think he made them

[@pe2aab]

5:12 looks like Alcudia as the big white building looks like Apt. Concha del Lago. (at lago S'Estany Gran) Could somebody confirm if I am right?

[@mikemoreno4469]

I think it might be near there: the Ciudad Blanca development.
