Cala Millor. A Guide to this resort from Around Mallorca
|
Cala Millor is on the North East Coast of Mallorca, in
between Cala Bona and Sa Coma. It is an ideal place for
families, livelier than it's neighbours but still providing the
charm of the original fishing village.
The large beach, which some claim to be one of the best
in Mallorca, is situated between two headlands which
provide shelter. With shallow waters this is a superb place
for families with small children. Sunbeds and parasols are
available for hire, and a wide range of water sports are
available.
Public transport is limited in these areas but there are a
large number of hire cars available, as well as bicycles
and "buggies" which are ideal for this relatively flat
resort.
There are numerous shops and restaurants available and
the night life ranges from quiet bistros to live music,
sports bars and night clubs. |

Shopping in Cala Millor is quite good, with good quality clothes shops and shoe shops in addition to the normal tourist aimed goods.
