Soller Tourist Information: Services and Useful Facts

The Sóller municipal tourist office runs from a historic railway carriage on Plaça d'Espanya, next to the train station. It is the best place to ask for maps, walking routes and transport timetables. Phone: 971 63 80 08.

Sóller town council also lists an office in Port de Sóller, on Carrer de la Marina. Opening hours change with the season and we do not publish them here to avoid giving you outdated information: check ajsoller.net or call before you go.

Tickets for the tram to the Port are not sold at the office but on the tram itself (see the Soller tram).

The municipality of Sóller has 13,882 inhabitants (INE, 2025) and covers 42.80 km². It includes the town, inland in the valley, and Port de Sóller, about 3 km away on the coast. The postcode is 07100. Both are on the northern side of the Serra de Tramuntana.

Sóller and the Port have pharmacies during normal shop hours. Outside those hours a rotating on-duty pharmacy (farmacia de guardia) system applies: a closed pharmacy usually shows on its door which one is on duty. The Balearic pharmacists' association publishes the current rota.

There are ATMs in Sóller and the Port, and most restaurants, hotels and shops accept cards. Carry some cash for the weekly market and small businesses. If an ATM offers to convert the amount into your own currency, choose to pay in euros: it usually works out cheaper.

Many hotels, cafes and restaurants offer wifi for customers. Mobile coverage can drop on Tramuntana trails and roads, so download offline maps before heading out. With an EU SIM card, roaming works at no extra cost.

The Soller market takes place on Saturdays in the town centre, with local produce, crafts and clothing. It is the best time to buy oranges and local products. Outside the market, many small shops close on public holidays.

• Es Firó: in May, on the Monday after the second Sunday. A Moors and Christians re-enactment of the pirate raid of 11 May 1561, with the final battle on the Port beach.
• Sant Bartomeu: in August, the festivities of Sóller's patron saint.
• Public holidays: many shops close. Check the Balearic Islands working calendar.

If you travel on these dates, book your accommodation well in advance.

People in Sóller speak Catalan (the Mallorcan variety) and Spanish. In hotels and restaurants, especially in the Port, staff often also speak English and German. A "bon dia" or a "gràcies" is always appreciated.

Sóller is a calm destination. Usual precautions: do not leave valuables visible in the car, watch your wallet in crowded places and check the weather before a mountain hike, as it changes quickly in the mountains. At the beach, respect the flags. For any incident, call 112.

Whether tap water is drinkable in Mallorca varies by municipality and we found no official data for Sóller. Many visitors prefer bottled water because of the taste. Ask your accommodation. According to press reports, Balearic rules require restaurants to serve tap water free of charge; ask for it if you want it.
