Cala d'Or
Cala d'Or
A bright, Ibizan-style resort on Mallorca's southeast coast, spread across a string of small sandy coves around a busy marina.
Cala d'Or is a holiday resort on the southeast coast of Mallorca, made up of several small sandy coves linked by low, white buildings in an Ibizan style. The calm, clear water of the calas suits families, and a smart marina sits at its heart. It is the largest resort in the Santanyí area, with the inland market town of Santanyí about 20 minutes away.
What Cala d'Or is known for
Cala d'Or is best known for its calas, a series of small coves with fine white sand and bright turquoise water, including Cala Gran, Cala Ferrera, Cala Esmeralda and Cala Serena. The sheltered, shallow water makes them very family-friendly, and a little tourist train and water taxis link them together. The whole resort is built in a low, white Ibizan style, planned in the 1930s by an artist from Ibiza, which gives it a brighter look than most. At its centre is the Marina de Cala d'Or, one of the largest on the island, lined with yachts, restaurants and shops.

Travel tips for visiting Cala d'Or
The calas are small and fill up fast in July and August, so arrive early for a good spot. Cala Gran is the largest and most central; Cala Serena is quieter.

The resort is quiet out of season, with many places closed between November and April.
