Tour Wows!
Perfect for Cycling and Suntans!
Mallorca’s Mediterranean location gives you beautiful blue skies, stunning vistas, and smooth roads that lead to exotic and vibrant locations. As you cycle in your group, you’ll appreciate the breeze that embraces you as it ushers in from the Mediterranean Sea. For great cycling and suntans, Mallorca is the place to be!
All Ages & Abilities Welcome
If you love riding a bike you’ll love SportActive Mallorca cycling. Our goal our passion is to ensure you have the best time on two wheels regardless of your ability or age. No matter if you’re aged 20 or 70+, if you have a passion for cycling, you’re going to love it and fit right in! Come and enjoy the delights of Mallorca, make new friends, and have a wonderful experience.
Non-Cycling Partners Welcome
If your partner isn’t a cyclist, you’ll find Mallorca has a lot to offer. Our Alcudia location is a short walk from the marina, and the hotel facilities are great too. Much of the island is easy to reach thanks to Mallorca’s transport links, and there are some great places close by. As the rides finish early afternoon, you’ll have plenty of time to spend with your partner and share stories of your day.
Mallorca Guided Tours Led by Expert Coaches and Tour Leaders. See the Best of the Island.
Every cycling day your expert Coach or Tour Leader will guide you on fantastic Mallorca cycling routes allowing you to experience the best of the island. The SportActive Team leaders and Mallorca local guides know every road and great location on the island, so each tour is one to remember. They excel at keeping a balanced pace for the group.
The Best Mallorca Cycling Routes
SportActive’s leaders and coaches ensure you cycle the safest, almost traffic free routes, leaving you free to enjoy the Mallorca landscape and talk with friends old and new. You’ll be taken to vibrant towns and tucked away villages, and enjoy wonderful food and coffee in cafes and bars often found in piazzas and other great locations. No doubt you’ll be talking about the day’s cycling route over dinner later that night!
Group Riding, Camaraderie and Friendship
Group riding makes for a great icebreaker so if you’re a solo traveller, a couple, or part of a larger group be assured you’ll be making friends. The team spirit and friendships that form are the kind that only cycling with like minded people can give you.
Don’t worry if you’ve never ridden in a group before. Our coaches and leaders will look after you so you can enjoy each day. The groups are exclusive to SportActive guests allowing the team to give you their full attention.
It's a Cycling Holiday not a Race!
Our leaders will match you to the perfect group. We have groups for relaxed cycling and groups for those that want to ride that little bit further and faster. Most of all cycling with SportActive is fun, and you’ll have a highly enjoyable experience.
Hire the Perfect Bike
When you hire a bike with us, we take your measurements and fit the bike to you. We provide comfortable saddles, and we can make further alterations to make the bike even more comfortable and a joy to ride. We take pride in our bikes’ performance so you can enjoy the best day’s cycling possible.

Sean Kelly is ranked the number 2 cyclist ever to have lived. His career achievements are amazing and he is one of the best road cyclists ever to sit on the saddle.

Itinerary, Cycling Location, and Profile
SportActive Cycle Centre Location
Your Cycling Holiday is located on the Balearic island of Mallorca, Spain.
Mallorca is known as the 'Paradise for cyclists' due to its weather conditions, smooth traffic free roads, rolling countryside, coastal routes, mountain climbs, and flat-undulating roads making it the ideal place for all types of cycling. We're situated in Puerto Alcùdia, on the north coast, the most picturesque part of Mallorca.
Mallorca Cycling Holiday Groups
