\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Get moving <\/strong><\/p>\n

Fancy mastering some tricky Zumba moves, perfecting your snorkelling skills, circuiting a velodrome and seeing if you\u2019ve got what it takes to stay atop a slack line for more than two seconds? Head to\u00a0The IX Fira de l’Esport <\/a> and you can try all this \u2013 and more. Open for three days (24-16 May 2013), this fun family-friendly event takes place in Palau Municipal sports centre and St Hugo swimming pool complex in Palma.<\/p>\n

A taste of Majorca <\/strong><\/p>\n

Go star grazing <\/strong><\/p>\n
