Answer
Can you watch La Beata from Sant Francesc or Sant Miquel in Palma?
Yes, the side streets of Sant Francesc and Sant Miquel are often good places to watch La Beata without standing directly in the densest crowd. These areas can offer a more relaxed view of the procession while still keeping you close to the route. Be sure to stay out of the middle of the street so the marshals can keep the procession moving safely.
