Coves des Hams, Porto Cristo
You cannot miss these caves as you drive from Manacor to Porto Cristo. Most people only want to visit one set of caves during their time on Mallorca and the giant billboards and flags at the entrance are an attempt to ensure that this is the one. In fact you are better off continuing to the 'Cuevas del Drach' (see above) or up the coast to the 'Coves d'Arta'. ...more
Caves d' Arta, Arta
If you only have time to visit one set of caves on the east coast, this is the one to see. These caves, near Arta in the north east of Mallorca are a fascinating network of underground caverns, whose weird stalactites and stalagmites conjure up mysterious images of Heaven and Hell. An early visitor was Jules Verne; the caves are said to have inspired his Journey to the Centre of the Earth. ...more
Cap de Formentor, Northern Tip of Mallorca
This wild peninsula on Mallorca's northeast tip has stunning views, sandy beaches and the island's original luxury hotel. The 20-km drive from Port de Pollenca to Mallorca's most northerly point has scenery as dramatic as anyone could wish for. Cliffs 400 metres tall jut into the sea, their weird rock formations attracting nesting seabirds, while pine trees seem to grow out of the rocks. ...more
Serra de Tramuntana, West Coast of Mallorca
The 'mountains of the north wind' which run the length of Mallorca's north coast are home to the island's most spectacular landscapes. Pine-covered slopes lean into the sea; as you climb higher, forested hills give way to barren crags and peaks. The people of Majorca have good reason to be grateful to the mountains - in winter they act as a buffer, shielding the plain from the fierce tramuntana wind and absorbing most of the island's rain and snow. In summer they provide a cool retreat from the heat of Palma and the south. ...more
Cuevas del Drach (Dragon Caves), Porto Cristo
Dark and cool, these limestone caves on the edge of Porto Cristo have become one of Mallorca's top tourist sights. Groups of several hundred people at a time are herded along 2 km of smooth paths by guides who tell you in four languages how to interpret the bizarre stalactite formations - a cactus here, a flag there, the Fairies' Theatre, Diana's Bath... ...more
Sa Calobra & the Torrent de Pareis, Western Coast of Mallorca
Do not believe anyone who tells you that they have discovered the perfect unspoilt cove on the west coast - unless of course the name is Sa Calobra. This is indeed a beautiful spot, which is why tour buses pour in by the dozen every day, even in winter. Surrounded by serious mountains, this place has a beautiful cove, a hidden beach and an incredible gorge. Despite all the visitors flocking here to view the stunning scenery, it is a pretty spectacular place. ...more
