Cala Tuent and Sa Calobra: the Mediterranean at the foot of the mountain
On the north coast, where the Serra drops straight into the sea, are two of the most spectacular coves in Mallorca. You get there on a road of tight hairpins that, on its own, already justifies the trip.
Sa Calobra and the Torrent de Pareis
Sa Calobra is where the Torrent de Pareis reaches the sea, a canyon that cuts through the massif and ends in a pebble beach wedged between walls hundreds of metres high. You reach it through a pedestrian tunnel cut into the rock.
Cala Tuent, the quiet alternative
A few kilometres away, Cala Tuent is wider, more discreet and almost always emptier. Clear water, pines down to the shore and the Puig Major behind.
In high season the car park fills early and the road is narrow. Another option is to come by boat from Port de Sóller, which avoids the hairpins and gives you the coast seen from the water.
Sleep in
( the valley )
All of this is a few minutes from the hotel. 31 rooms right in the centre of Sóller, with breakfast included and the Serra de Tramuntana behind.
