Water refill points in Pollença
Every mapped water point in Pollença sits in or around the old town, most within a few streets of Plaça Major — none is down at Port de Pollença. That makes the town a genuinely dense refill stop, and it makes the port, the Formentor road and the climb to Lluc places you should arrive at already full.
The density is the point. Several fountains within a short ride of each other means a dry or busy one costs you a minute, not a plan, which is unusual on this island. If Pollença is your base, this is where the day’s water comes from; if you are passing through on the Ma-2200, it is the last easy stop before the Coll de Femenia.
What the data does not record is what any of them look like — no spout height, no flow, no shade. Expect the full range from a wall-recessed spout to a freestanding tap, and expect the plazas to be busy on market mornings and around midday in summer. If there is a queue, the next one is close.
These are OpenStreetMap records maintained by volunteers, and the date under the answer above is when we last pulled the data rather than when anyone checked the tap. Use the island-wide drinking-water and bottle-refill map to see what exists on the far side of your climb, keep the cafés in Pollença as the fallback, and for a hot day over Femenia read our cycling safety guidance for Mallorca.
Common questions
Is the water at these fountains drinkable?
The dataset carries no water-quality field, so this page will not tell you a given fountain is potable — only that it is mapped as a public drinking-water point. Judge it where you stand: skip a spout that smells odd, is taped or covered, or sits in standing water. For mains water quality in the municipality, the Ajuntament de Pollença is who to ask.
Is there mapped water at Port de Pollença or on the Formentor road?
Not in this dataset. Every point recorded for Pollença is up in the town, so if your ride starts at the port or heads out to Formentor, fill before you go rather than expecting a fountain along the way — that road is long, exposed and has no public water on it.
Where is the best place to stop in town?
The old-town plazas and the streets around them, simply because that is where the points are and where you can get off the road safely. On the way up towards Lluc, fill in the town rather than at the edge: the points thin out as soon as you leave the built-up area.
