Cala Millor Beach

Cala Millor is situated on the beach and is perfect if you want to combine days by the pool with some time on the soft white sand. The beach and sea here are beautiful with a number of beachside restaurants dotted along the promenade, as well as water sports like jet skiing and snorkelling. Cala Millor Beach is actually a Blue Flag beach so you know that you'll be enjoying a great day out in the sun.

Exercise

If you're someone who enjoys a bit of outdoor exercise, head to Via Verda (The Green Way), which is a walking and cycling track and runs between Manacor and Arta. This old railway line track is a lovely way to see the local countryside and towns of Son Servera and Son Carrio. Closer to home the hike up to Castell de la Punta de n'Amer, allows you to get out and try a coastal trek.

Boat Trips & Excursions

Being in the Med, you'll definitely want to take a boat trip out. There are plenty of options that can be booked online in advance or in Cala Millor, either at your hotel with a rep, or at one of the shops that sells excursion tickets. Try a glass bottom boat trip to enjoy the views under the water without getting wet, and who knows, you may even see a dolphin or two.

Nightlife

Nightlife in Cala Millor is varied with a good mix of bars to choose from for a fun night out. Several places to check out are Havana Q for a bit of Latin music, or Danni's Bar which is the best rated on TripAdvisor. There are plenty of English bars in the area and a popular Irish bar to visit is Pogue Mahone in nearby Sa Coma.

Cala Millor Market

Every Monday from April to October, there is a local market in the morning (between 9am and 1pm), on Carrer de l'Eucaliptus (opposite Aldi), offering you the opportunity to buy all sorts of bits and pieces from fruit and vegetables to clothing and souvenirs.

Go Karting

Did you know there is also a go karting track here? On the outskirts of town is Karting Cala Millor a fun way to spend a few hours, with two seat karts so that children can also enjoy the experience.

Nearby Towns

Just north is the small town and marina of Cala Bona, or you could head south to explore Sa Coma, another great holiday resort (the beach here is gorgeous). Other nearby resorts include S'illot and Costa dels Pins.

Holiday Types

Last Minute Escapes

Loads of flights and loads of accommodation options means that Majorca is a fantastic place for a last minute holiday. These airlines and hotels really don't want to be empty so there are often some great late deals, even to the quieter resorts like Santa Ponsa, Cala Bona and Sa Coma.

Free Child Places

Both Jet2 holidays and TUI holidays have free child place finders, allowing you to save money on your next holiday. Thousands of free child place holidays are available, evening in Summer, but for the more popular hotels like the Holiday Village Majorca in Cala Millor, and the Insotel Cala Mandia Resort & Spa in Porto Cristo (beautiful beach nearby), you'll want to book up early. Always check the kids clubs on offer too as some can be much better than others.

Adult Only Holidays

There are adult only hotels here too, but choose wisely. The more livlier resorts targeting younger holidaymakers like the BH Mallorca even has its own waterslides, while a more luxury, relaxing vibe is on offer at places like the AluaSoul Mallorca Resort in Cala d'Or. And even swim up rooms available at the Senses Palmanova Resort.

Villa Holidays

If you love a bit of freedom and like your own space, villas in Majorca can be an ideal holiday for families and groups, or someone looking for a quiet escape. Brands like James Villas and Villa Plus have hundreds of handpicked fincas, villas and holiday homes to choose from.

Things To Do

While you might just want to go on holiday to sit by the pool and sip on a wealth of cocktails, there's actually loads of things to do and see outside of your hotel. While organised tours and trips can make sure you don't miss a thing, why not hire a car and discover some of Majorca's best beaches, hidden away with white sand and turquoise waters.

Palma City

If you're staying in one of the beach resorts dotted around the island, a day trip into Palma offers a welcome break from the poolside antics and sandcastle building, and instead treats you to historic architecture, local Spanish tapas bars and plenty of shopping. Excursions can be organised but by far the best way is to jump in a taxi (or on the bus if public transport is easy from where you are staying), and head into the city centre.

Water Parks

During the summer months, a day trip to one of Majorca's water parks is an absolute must. Great for couples, families and groups of friends, on hot days, there's nothing quite like throwing yourself down a waterslide and scaring yourself silly. Of course, you can always chill out on the lazy river or by the wave pool. The three largest water parks in Majorca are Aqualand in El Arenal, Hidropark in Alcudia, and Western Water Park just outside of Magaluf.

Boat Trips

From party boats to family friendly catamaran trips, a great day trip in Majorca is a boat trip. And you could even spot a dolphin or two. Excursions can be booked in advance with companies like Viator, or you can buy tickets when you arrive. Your hotel staff or holiday rep can also help you book a tour.
