Port de Sóller health care has moved up to Sóller town

The small public surgery at Port de Sóller has stopped seeing patients in its own premises. According to a mallorca.com report dated 16 October, the Balearic health authorities chose to gather care at Serra Nord because water gets in through the roof whenever it rains, and the building no longer offers proper conditions for patients and staff.

The building belongs to Sóller town council. Fixing the roof would be complex work with a long closure, so the primary care management and the council have discussed the problem and are looking at a different site for the Port. Both bodies have apologised for the inconvenience. No public reopening date exists for now.

Serra Nord is Sóller's public health centre, run by IB-Salut, at Camí des Camp Llarg 18. It has a continuous care point for urgent cases. Appointments are handled through ibsalut.es.

We do not list consultation hours, because they change and are best read on the official site on the day. For residents with a health card the move simply means a longer trip. For visitors the key question is what cover you carry, which the next section sums up.

• European Health Insurance Card: EU travellers should have it with them when they go to a public centre. Everyone else needs travel insurance with medical cover.
• Serious emergency: do not wait for an appointment, call 112. It is free and works across the EU.
• Non-urgent problem: the usual choice is Serra Nord or the private clinic in town. Both are listed in our tourist information guide, together with pharmacies and useful phone numbers, so we do not repeat them here.
• What to bring: passport or ID, your health card or policy, and a list of any medication you take.

The Port and the town are about 3 km apart. Practical options:

• Tram: links the Port seafront with central Sóller. It suits you if you are not in a rush and can walk a little from the town stop to the health centre; check times in our Sóller tram guide.
• Taxi: the most direct choice if you feel unwell, travel with children or have limited mobility. Ask to be dropped at the door. More in taxi and transport.
• On foot or by bike: possible between the two centres, but we would not advise it with a fever, pain or bad weather.

Our own tip: if the problem can wait, go in the morning so you have time to get back to the Port by public transport and visit a pharmacy without hurrying. For medicines outside shop hours, see the duty pharmacy system explained in the tourist information guide.
