The nice marina offering over 500 moorings, long promenade and lots of restaurants and cafes (www.marinacalador.es). One of the highlights is the restaurant “Port Petit” with French Mediterranean cuisine on the harbour view terrace.

The restaurant “Colon” due to the exquisite cuisine and extravagant ambiance belongs to one of the best restaurants of Mallorca. (www.restaurante-colon.com)
Above Porto Colom only 2 miles away in-between of the hills, resides the outstanding golf course Vall d’Or Golf. Most of the fairways offer spectacular views over the landscape and the Mediterranean Sea. Vall d’Or stands for narrow fairways, sneaky doglegs and fast greens.
