Majorca (
/məˈjɔːrkə/[2]), also spelt
Mallorca,
[3] as in
Catalan (
[məˈʎɔrkə]) and
Spanish (
[maˈʎorka]), is the largest island in the
Balearic Islands, which are part of Spain and located in the Mediterranean.
The capital of the island,
Palma, is also the capital of the
autonomous community of the Balearic Islands. The Balearic Islands have been an autonomous region of Spain since 1983.
[4] The
Cabrera Archipelago is administratively grouped with Majorca (in the municipality of Palma). The anthem of Majorca is
La Balanguera.
Like the other Balearic Islands of
Menorca,
Ibiza and
Formentera, the island is an extremely popular holiday destination, particularly for tourists from Germany and the United Kingdom. The international airport,
Palma de Mallorca Airport, is one of the busiest in Spain; it was used by 26.3 million passengers in 2016.

The name derives from
Latin insula maior, "larger island"; later
Maiorica, "the larger one" in comparison to
Menorca, "the smaller one".
