Cala San Vicente Holidays

Set on Majorca’s rocky northern coastline, Cala San Vicente’s all about pretty coves, clear waters and eye-widening mountain views. It’s just the sort of place that’s great for watching the world go by – the tempo here’s snail-slow. Plus, its quaint local restaurants and bars are few enough to allow this old town to retain its original Balearic Island charm.

One of the main draws of Cala San Vicente is its good-looking surroundings. It’s pushed back into a bay between two looming headlands, and the far-reaching sea views will have you grabbing the camera. There are lots of great walks that snake into the countryside, too, and there are some Prehistoric caves that you can venture into.

Beach-wise, this place does Spain proud, and you've got three to choose from. Cala Barques is the biggest, and boasts a Blue Flag status, fine sand and glass-clear waters. The other two are a bit more rocky and great for snorkellers. The headland to the north means the sea around Cala San Vicente’s calm, plus the resort’s slightly out-of-the-way location helps keep away big crowds.
