Saharan dust and mud rain: How well is Mallorca really prepared?

Answer

Which parts of Mallorca are likely to notice Saharan dust the most?

Dust can affect much of Mallorca, but busy urban areas such as Palma often make the problem more visible because dirt settles on streets, buses, shop fronts, and parked cars. Coastal places can also show the residue clearly on sunbeds, terraces, and outdoor areas. The impact is usually island-wide, even if some spots feel it more intensely than others.
