Porto Cristo is a charming harbour town on the southeast coast of Mallorca and 5 minutes drive from the apartment. In a picturesque bay, framed by low cliffs, this has become one of the island’s major tourist destinations. Unlike many other resorts in Mallorca, Porto Cristo has preserved its original character to this day. Exuberant hotel complexes and noisy discos are not what you will get in the magical place.

Porto Cristo’s most special is the Cuevas del Drach (The Dragon Caves). The widely ramified cave system near the coast is a tourist magnet and often very crowded in summer. This is no wonder, as the stalactite cave houses the largest underground lake in Europe, Lake Martel. Holidaymakers especially appreciate the well-kept beach of Porto Cristo, which extends over a length of about 300 m between the rocky coast and the marina. The crystal-clear water glows turquoise blue in the bright sunshine and yachts with their pearly-white hulls bob up and down on the waves.
