The most productive seasons are spring and autumn. The main attraction, Eleonora's Falcons are present from mid April to the first week of November, wintering mostly in Madagascar. Ferries to the island are suspended from November 1 to January 31, and run on a reduced schedule in February and October.
Birders will want to take the earliest ferry (departing Sant Elm at 0945) and allow for at least two hours on the island. In summer, returning on the 1230 ferry will allow for two hours' birding before the afternoon heat sets in. This is sufficient for visiting the Eleonora's Falcon viewpoint and the Far de Tramuntana lighthouse. In spring or autumn, birders could spend a full day on the island in search of migrants.
The park offers three walks, with a fourth (Camí de Na Miranda) being an alternative route to/from the Far de Tramuntana lighthouse. Most visitors head north to the Far de Tramuntana lighthouse, passing the spectacular clifftop viewpoint for Eleonora's Falcons. This is a moderately strenuous uphill hike (nearly 2km each way) with limited shade in summer. For variety, it is worth taking the Na Miranda ('red') walk, a slight detour from the main track, either on the way up or down.
For a longer walk, head south to the Far de Llebeig lighthouse, where Eleonora's Falcons can also be viewed. This hike involves less ascent but takes around 75 minutes each way, would require at least 3 hours on the island. A final option is to climb the peak to Mirador Del Far Vell, a strenuous 9km round trip without much shade, for which 3 hours is recommended.
Booted Eagle, Osprey, Eurasian Kestrel and Peregrine Falcon are resident and may be seen soaring over the mountains. Sardinian and Balearic Warblers inhabit the scrub and are best located by their calls, or by their song in spring. The Balearic subspecies of Spotted Flycatcher is resident and might be seen in the olive groves around the ferry terminal. Other passerines such as redstarts and wheatears occur especially on spring and autumn passage.
Cory's and Balearic Shearwaters might be seen from the ferry, but for better views, a boat trip around the island with a company such as Mallorca Nature Tours is recommended.
