Hugging the north-east Majorcan coastline, Cala Millor is a popular holiday town known for its sandy beaches, palm-lined promenade and watersports. From snorkelling to hiking, shopping and club-hopping, there’s never a dull moment in Cala Millor.
Things to Do
Cala Millor is a two-kilometre Blue Flag beach tucked into a picturesque bay and lined with cafes and open-air shacks selling ice cream, souvenirs and beach gear. You can go jet skiing, banana boating, windsurfing, boardsailing and scuba diving. Alternatively, hop aboard a glass-bottom boat or join a fishing expedition.
Snorkelling is a popular activity in Cala Millor, where clear, gentle waters reveal colourful fish and barracuda shoals, particularly at Cala Bona. Afterwards, stay for a seafood dinner in the picturesque harbour. Take a 15-minute walk back to along the promenade and stop for cocktails or craft beer at one of the seafront Spanish tavernas.
Little ones will love spotting zebras, monkeys and giraffes at Safari Zoo in neighbouring Sa Coma. The four-kilometre drive-thru animal preserve offers an optional mini-train ride. Visitors of all ages will love hearing classical music at the underground lake in the Caves of the Hams, which features fish-hook stalactites and twinkling electric lights.
For a shopping extravaganza, hit the pavement of Passeig Cristofol Colom to find everything from perfumes to designer clothing. Small local markets offer handmade Majorcan specialties, such as lace textiles, olive wood carvings, leather handbags and bottles of Spanish Rioja wine.
