Costa Nord

Valldemossa


The brainchild of part-time Valldemossa resident and Hollywood actor Michael Douglas, Costa Nord describes itself as a 'cultural centre' and begins well with a 15-minute portrayal of the history of Valldemossa, narrated by Douglas himself. The subsequent virtual trip aboard Nixe, the 19th-century yacht of Austrian Archduke Luis Salvador, who owned much of Western Mallorca, will be of less interest to most.
