Cala Millor Holidays

Dull moments are rare in this bubbly beach resort. Spread along a four-mile bay on Majorca’s rugged east coast, Cala Millor is a cut above the rest when it comes to jam-packed holidays. The beach is the main draw. It comes with soft sand that shelves down into clear sea water, candy-coloured windsurfing sails, and a battalion of straw parasols.

Cheery beach stores, souvenir shops and cafés perfect for grabbing a cool drink – the promenade’s where all the action happens, right next to the beach. And just behind it there’s a pedestrianised centre with legions of shops, restaurants and bars. Evenings take the tempo up a notch, with dancing into the small hours.

Cala Millor’s well placed for sightseeing around this Balearic Island. Swap the beach for the dramatic Caves of Drach, or take the kids to the Cala Millor Safari Park. There’s also a mini train that puffs its way between the neighbouring resorts – it’s particularly popular with children. Couples can slow the pace down by strolling along the Cala Millor waterfront to quiet Cala Bona for dinner by the harbour.
