Calas de Mallorca holidays are all about fun in the sun. Few places can offer a Mediterranean holiday that you put you in the middle of the Mediterranean like the Spanish island of Majorca. On the far side on the island from the airport near Palma sits this sun-drenched region. While it can take over an hour by airport transfer, once you arrive in Calas de Mallorca, you will find a quiet seaside resort town perfect for families who want to explore a little and play in the sand a lot.
A holiday in Calas de Mallorca is not a sightseeing vacation per se. However, there are some activities that will get you out of the sun for a while. The Caves of Drach are open seasonally in the warmer months. Here you can see Lake Martal, the largest underground lake in the world. Not far from the caves is a small aquarium highlighting exotic fish. For teenagers and more nocturnal adults, there are bars and discos offering a little nightlife.
The best way to enjoy any time not spent in the sand, though, is to book a boat tour. From the sea, you will see the beauty of the geography of this area. The small coves and tree-covered cliffs are even more stunning looking back at them from the water. A glass-bottom boat trip is always a hit for families traveling with children.
The real attractions of Calas de Mallorca are the beaches. Because of the dramatic terrain, the beaches here are set in small sandy coves. However, the larger beaches still offer a variety of water sports along the sparkling Mediterranean. Weaker swimmers should beware of the strong undertows created by the narrow inlets. However, with enough sun block, a vacation in Calas de Mallorca will give a busy family a wonderful relaxing holiday.
