Port de Sóller, Coastal village in western Mallorca, Spain

The natural harbor of Port de Sóller lies in a protected bay along the Mediterranean coast, surrounded by the Tramuntana mountain range.

The port area evolved from an ancient settlement dating back to the Copper Age, with archaeological findings from 5200 to 2700 BC.

A vintage tram system from 1913 connects Port de Sóller to the town of Sóller, operating original cars along a 5-kilometer seaside route.

The marina contains 450 berths, with 150 spaces reserved for visiting vessels, and provides direct access to Mediterranean sailing routes.

The Picada Tower, constructed between 1614 and 1623, stands as part of an 85-tower network designed to protect against North African maritime attacks.

What to do in Majorca: natural sites, historic heritage, and activities

Mallorca offers diverse landscapes where fine sandy beaches and wild coves surrounded by limestone cliffs succeed one another. On the northwest coast, Sa Calobra marks the spectacular mouth of the Torrent de Pareis, while Cala Figuera nestles between the rocky walls of Cape Formentor. To the southeast, near Santanyí, Caló del Moro and the Mondragó natural park reveal other facets of the Mediterranean coast. The island's architectural heritage reflects centuries of history. In Palma, the Gothic cathedral from the 14th century dominates the port with its nave standing 144 feet (44 meters) high and 61 stained glass windows. The round Bellver Castle, built in 1311, is perched on the heights of the city. The Drach Caves in Porto Cristo reveal an underground world spanning approximately 0.75 miles (1.2 km), including Lake Martel, one of Europe’s largest underground lakes. The Alfàbia Gardens in Sóller preserve Moorish hydraulic art from the 13th century, while the Roman site of Pol·lèntia in Alcúdia dates back to the 1st century BC. To the north, the s'Albufera natural park conserves 4,200 acres (1,700 hectares) of wetlands hosting over 250 species of migratory birds.
