The Majorcan town has been trying to clean up its image but British holidaymakers have ignored a crackdown on drunkenness.
The officers will work there for a week before spending another week in San Antonio in Ibiza.
The small group of officers will initially act as a liason between Spanish police and young Britons.
Magaluf, visited by an estimated one million UK tourists every year, has been dubbed "Shagaluf" because of the antics of holidaymakers.
Last summer, footage of a 21-year-old woman from Northern Ireland performing sex acts on 24 men in exchange for drink went viral, sparking outrage.
The Majorcan town has been trying to improve its image and crack down on drunkenness and debauchery with new rules that went into effect in June.
But British holiday makers have defied the new regulations, which include a ban on drinking alcohol on the street between 10pm and 8am and restrictions on its notorious bar crawls.
The resort is also threatening fines of up to 3,000 for people found naked or urinating in the street.
Some bars along the Punta Ballena strip - where most of the drink-fuelled action takes place - have put up signs with messages such as "no alcohol permitted in the street" and "drink with moderation".
