Spain’s royals and other relatives have been making their presence felt in the island of Mallorca for the start of the summer vacation season.
Queen Sofia and her sister, Irene, are particularly fond of the island. King Felipe and Queen Letizia also make a point of at least spending some days there during the summer.


Spain’s royals used to spend more time in Mallorca in years past, when King Juan Carlos was head of state. King Felipe and Queen Letizia prefer to take private vacations elsewhere after spending some time in Mallorca.
This year they have also been deeply involved in the Olympics, with the King and Queen and their daughters attending numerous games and meeting with Spanish athletes.
