Mallorca · HIDDEN COVES & CALAS
30 reviewed
The best calas have no road to them, only a boat. Here are the trips that reach the quiet coves: coastal cruises with swim stops, small-boat charters, and the tours out to Dragonera and the Malgrats islands. Which anchor where, what is included, and which stay clear of the crowds.
