The most interesting road in Mallorca
Trip to the Bay of Sa Calobra belongs, together with the journey to the Cape Formentor, to the highlights of Mallorca. You can expect downhill mountain road with many twists to the sea with a total elevation of 720 meters and a variety of amazing views. You can then also swim in a beautiful cove or walk into the gorge Torrent de Pareis (second largest erosion gorge of southern Europe).
Outlook of Puig Major
The turn-off to the Bay Calobra is from the mountain road Ma-10 connecting Pollença with Sóller just below the highest point of the island – the mountain Puig Major (1 445 m asl).
Road bridge near Mirador Corbata
The first attraction is the place, where the road could not be built by other means than with a bridge and proper bend.
View of Puig Major
Through the road bridge is another nice view on the highest mountain in the island Puig Major.
Amazing road to Sa Calobra
You can expect around twenty twist before you descend down to the sea. All the time with the most beautiful mountain sceneries in the island.
View into the depths
The view into the depths of the gorge is absolutely breathtaking.
View of Bay Calobra
Almost at the end of the road opens nice view of the beginning of bay Calobra.
Tunnel
Another point of interest on this mountain road is narrow tunnel between the rocks.
By the sea
End of the road already leads in a relatively wide valley. It is possible to park the car approximately three hundred meters in front of a small port. Like everywhere in the world, it is ideal to set out here early to have the beach to yourselves, because there will be a lot of people just in a moment and the magic will be gone.
Journey to the magical beach
To the small truly magical beach it's almost half a kilometer along the rugged shoreline. The path leads for while also in a tunnel.
