Coin laundries? Heaps of them. If you need to know.. just ask..

Re: The Mallorca Squad

Arenal is the only marina I know of with one, and they're not common unless you get into the inner cities. Great laundry ladies at Club de Vela but I've never found a coin laundry close to the marina. Soller--never gone looking, and it's been so long I can't say about Alcudia but don't recall finding one their either. El Rocio is a long way from the marinas, packing a load of laundry, even if there is great food close by.

The one in Alcudia is by the marina showers

Re: The Mallorca Squad

boatman, it's been quite a while since I've been up there, likely 7 or 8 years. If the laundry was by the showers when I was there, I'd have found it. But now that you mention it ..... maybe.....

There is one machine at Puerto Cristo's marina too.

The lack of do-it-yourself laundries at or near the marinas has been a pet peeve of mine for a long time. Trust me--I'm always on the look out for them!

Re: The Mallorca Squad

Well as I have the clinic under control, or more accurately, others are controlling it it....... I'm going to head off to Mallorca Early April for 2 weeks. First time to just go and be my own boss in a while.

Going to take my SJCAM and 3 axis stabiliser...... My boat ride will not be available but I will be down filming at the marina.

Rule #1: Going to be lovely......... jes great.
Rule #2: If this is not the case, refer to rule #1.

This is a test to show you the wide angle and the 'straightened' version.
