A new agreement reached by the Balearic Government, Palma City Council and 20 cruise lines means the daily average number of berths must fall from 8,500 to 7,500 between June and September from 2027 to 2029.
The cap will remain at 8,500 outside that three-month window. Although the summer limits end in 2029, the agreement is in place until 2031.
The environmental agreement maintains a cap of three cruise ships per day in Palma's port, with one allowed to carry more than 5,000 passengers.
As part of the agreement, cruise lines will conduct a study of tourist movements across Majorca to improve traffic flows and promote alternative destinations.
