Water refill points in Santa Maria del Camí
Santa Maria del Camí has very little mapped water: one point by the town and a pair of near-identical records several kilometres to the south, which almost certainly describe the same fixture. Treat the town as a single stop — and a useful one, since it sits on the old Palma–Inca road at the foot of the roads up to Alaró and Orient.
That position is what makes it worth a stop at all. Riders come through here on the flat run out from Palma, on the wine-country roads towards Consell and Binissalem, and on the way to the Coll d’Honor and the Orient valley. The flat part is easy to underestimate: it is open, often into a headwind, and hotter than the mountains because nothing moves the air.
Because there is effectively one point in town, do not build a plan around it. Fill here if it is running, and know where your next option is if it is not. A near-duplicate pair of records at the same coordinates is a mapping artefact, not two chances — we show the data as it stands rather than merging it quietly.
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. Pick your second option from the island-wide drinking-water and bottle-refill map, see the Santa Maria del Camí town page for what else is mapped nearby, and before a hot day on the Coll d’Honor read our cycling safety guidance for Mallorca.
Common questions
Is the water at these points drinkable?
The dataset has no water-quality field, so this page will not tell you a given point is potable — only that it is mapped as a public drinking-water point. Judge it in front of you: 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 Santa Maria del Camí is who to ask.
Why do two of the records look like the same place?
Because they very likely are: two entries within a metre or two of each other is the signature of the same fountain added twice by different volunteers. Plan around one fixture rather than two, and note that both sit well south of the town rather than in it.
Is there water on the climb to Orient or the Coll d’Honor?
Nothing mapped on the climbs themselves. Those roads run village to village, and your realistic water is a bar in Alaró or Orient rather than a roadside fountain. Fill in Santa Maria, carry two bottles in summer, and treat the climb as a dry section.
