This place is ideal for a relaxed holiday, with 13km/8mi of warm, white sand, as well as bars, restaurants, and some nightclubs. Scuba divers are attracted here due to the caves and caverns such as Sa Cova Tancada or Cova de Ses Llàgrimes. Divers of all levels can find something interesting, as well as explore the richness of the underwater life.
Divers can experience great diving further south at the Big Cheese and Column wreck sites, and further north, at the Cave of Jeronimo and La Foguera, which are suitable for all diver levels.
