Holidays to Cala D'Or

Holidays to Cala d’Or are all about carefree, sunshiny days spent chilling on the beach, splashing about in the water and wowing your way through some of Majorca’s top attractions. Yes please!

Drift away in the bay

The Cala d’Or coastline is jam-packed with dreamy coves, sensational sandstone cliffs and warm, welcoming waters. When you’re not sunning yourself on the sand, take a shady stroll on the coastal path for breath-stealing views of the glittering Mediterranean.

If you need a little more adventure on your Cala d’Or holiday, there’s plenty to get your pulse racing. Jump on a jet ski, bounce on a banana boat or skim the seabed on a scuba trip.

Meet Mother Nature

Hard to believe it, but Mother Nature didn’t use up all her magic on Cala d’Or’s lush beaches. In fact, she saved more than a sprinkle for the nearby Mondrago Natural Park, which is home to wild olive groves, giant juniper bushes, pine forests, rolling dunes and a lagoon bursting with life.

Need a break from the sun’s rays? Descend 25 metres into the jaw-dropping Cuevas del Drach (aka the Drach Caves) for proof that Cala d’Or’s natural beauty doesn’t stop on the surface. Here you can take a boat trip beneath the stalactites on one of Europe’s largest subterranean lakes and – wait for it – enjoy a classical music concert surrounded by otherworldly scenery.

Live like a local

If you’re the kind of traveller who likes to soak up the local culture on your getaway, a Cala d’Or holiday does not disappoint.

Spend your mornings strolling around traditional whitewashed buildings, your afternoons practising your Spanish in cafes by the marina and your evenings with a waterfront table for tasty tapas. Get enough patatas bravas, jamón Ibérico and Majorcan wine down you and you’ll be Juan with the locals before you know it!

Fly in for fiestas

To see Cala d’Or at its most brilliant, beautiful best, fly in for the Festival de Jazz. A week of open-air concerts transforms the serene streets into a full-on fiesta every May. The genre’s biggest names pop up in town squares, tiny tavernas and just about anywhere you can swing a sax.

For something a little more spiritual, try August’s Festes Santa Maria del Mar. With a moving mass and a marina procession, there’s something for the whole flock.
