  • Visiting Portocolom | A day at a pretty port in Mallorca
    A short taxi ride was the pretty port of Portocolom. I'd remembered this resort from a drive through on a transfer coach a few years back and thought it might be worth a visit. We arrived on market day, much to my wife's pleasure, she loves a market, but once we'd dispensed with that we had a good walk around the bay towards the lighthouse and back. We visited local bars and restaurants and ate some fantastic tapas before exploring the harbour. Join us as we show you around.

    Hi Andy, a good around the market, loved seeing the sea, it was clear and the boats bobbing up and down, loved the bird, so pretty. A lovely view of the harbour from the restaurant and the food looked really good. The buildings were nice to wander around x Julie and Tony x

      Thanks for joining the premiere, Yasmin. The huge lens on the bridge camera is great for getting close-up footage from a distance. Portocolom is a lovely place, I think we only got to see about half of it, sounds like an excuse to go back...

      Thanks for watching Cara, it's a pretty place. We spotted a couple of Hoopoes flying around, but there were at least half a dozen of them in the wooded area next to the beach. Capturing photos of them when we are away is always my holiday challenge 😀

      Thanks, Jill. Portocolom was a place I fancied visiting when we drove through a few years ago on the transfer bus. The tapas was great. However, I left the shrimps, and the baby squid to my other half.

    Always enjoy a marked when we are on holiday and to be honest never heard of Portocolom before but it did look very nice and quote quiet too. Unusually anything over 22C and I start to melt, which is why we always used to go abroad on May, just hoping it will not be be too hot in September when we go this year. That looked a very good days visit there, cheers Alan

      @OutandaboutwithAndy  Год назад +1

      Thanks, Alan. I only knew about it from our holiday to Cala D'Or, and our coach went through it. September can still be quite warm. We went to Torremolinos last year, late September, and it was as warm as Fuerteventura had been in August.

    That market looked amazing! Were the deals any good? It reminds me of how Americans used to go to Mexico for the deals, before it became too dangerous. 30 degrees...you might not be used to it but I assume that's one reason why you holiday there, to get away from the cooler UK weather. Could be worse, you could be melting in Greece, literally. Great video Andrew and a nice look around!

    • @OutandaboutwithAndy
      @OutandaboutwithAndy  Год назад

      Hi Paul, I can't say I paid too much attention to the market, I was conscious our cases were close to the weight limit going out already, it didn't stop the Mrs, though. 30 degrees Celsius was enough for us, we're so glad not to be there right now. Thanks for watching, and I hope you are well and enjoying your new home.

      Thanks Nick, it's not always easy doing video. The Mrs tolerates it, but doesn't really like being on camera, that said she always seems to wander into my shot 😀 Hoopoes are one of favourite birds, such unusual markings, and the have a crest which they show off when they get excited.

      Diane, we only spent a day there, but we did find a few bars and restaurants around the harbour area. We didn't have time to explore the north side of the bay, but I guess it figures there will be more there, too.
