Coves del Drach, Show cave in Porto Cristo, Spain
The Drach Caves network contains four main chambers filled with numerous limestone formations, including stalactites and stalagmites throughout the underground passages.
The exploration of these caves during the 19th century led to significant geological discoveries and the establishment of regular tours starting in 1922.
Musicians perform daily classical concerts while floating on boats across Lake Martel, creating a traditional entertainment experience for cave visitors.
The cave maintains a constant temperature of 21 degrees Celsius year-round, with guided tours available in multiple languages from morning until late afternoon.
The cave system features Lake Martel, measuring 177 meters in length and 30 meters in width, with crystal formations reflecting in its waters.

From the underground lakes of Drach Caves to the ancient ruins of Torre d'en Galmés, the Balearic Islands contain numerous hidden sites. The archipelago features remote beaches with clear waters, historic buildings, and natural reserves. Notable locations include the Phoenician necropolis in Ibiza, the salt flats of Las Salinas, and the vintage train route through Mallorca's mountains. The islands house multiple caves with rock formations, coastal wetlands for bird watching, and traditional markets selling local goods.
The coast of Mallorca alternates between sandy beaches and rocky coves like Sa Calobra and Cala Figuera. The island retains a rich architectural heritage with Palma's Gothic cathedral, the circular Bellver castle, and medieval villages. Natural formations include the Drach caves, the s'Albufera nature park, and the Alfàbia gardens. The historic Sóller train crosses the Sierra de Tramuntana.
