Porto Colom
Natural refuge for all seafarers in the Mediterranean, Porto Colom is one of the largest natural ports in Mallorca. Located just 11 km from the town where it belongs (Felanitx) and 60 km from Palma, Porto Colom is currently one of the most picturesque redoubts on the island.
The hotels in Porto Colom combine perfectly with the charming sea flavour that you notice in all its corners and its beautiful fishing port appearance.
If you are looking to spend your holidays in Mallorca enjoying all the tourist services that this island offers, the hotels in Porto Colom have all the advantages you were looking for.
The lighthouse of Porto Colom, built in 1860 at 42 metres above sea level, enhances even more the beauty of this Mediterranean port.
On the other hand, the coast that surrounds Porto Colom has a great number of stunning virgin coves. The largest one is Cala Marçal, which offers all kind of services. The small beach of S’Arenal, in the vicinity of the lighthouse, is much smaller. The rest of its coves are difficult to access, so you have to get there using the boats that depart from the port.
Its privileged geographic location turns Porto Colom into a perfect place to practice all sorts of water activities: sailing, scuba diving, fishing, water skiing... as well as other sports such as golf, tennis, bicycle touring, etc. However, if you are not interested in sports, Porto Colom is also great to simply sunbathe and swim in its wonderful waters.
One of the most interesting trips in Mallorca is the Monastery Route, which includes a visit to the Monastery of Monti-sion and four other monasteries that date from the 14th century: Sanctuary of Cura, Sanctuary of Bonany, Hermitage of Santa Llucia and Sanctuary of Sant Salvador. This guided tour departs from Porto Colom.
