The Story of Errol’s Majorca
Great Flynnian Info & Imagery in the Documentary Below.
“In the midst of his honeymoon with his wife, Patricia Wymore, the actor and bon vivant Errol Flynn was sailing towards Gibraltar on his yacht, Zaca, when they were caught in a terrible storm. Seeking the shore, their only choice was to moor their boat at Pollença, a harbor on the island of Mallorca. The place, plentiful in boats and with a distant view of the mountains, swept them in bewilderment. After that first sight of the Mediterranean culture, they subsequently sailed to the Bay of Palma. After their honeymoon ended, Flynn promised to return to Mallorca to stay and that is how in 1955 he settled on the island, where he could find the calm and anonymity that he so desired at the time.” [passaportto.iberostar]

Nice posting, and great little Spanish TV doco on Flynn in Majorca.
Makes me want to go, especially to visit the hotel Bon Sol. I can see why Flynn liked it so much, satiating all his adventurous desires below, on and above the water line.

Interesting also hearing that Rita Hayworth called him on her arrival in Palma, but Errol don’t want to see her … I thought he’d be jumping at the chance, in like Flynn so to say

The story varies, Phil. Some say it actually was Ava Gardner knocking on Errol`s doorstep. Anyways, life was a beach for the Flynns in Majorca. Here is the view out of their Windmill Villa.(Thanks to Ventu Sala)
