Cala Santanyí is located in the southeast of the
Island some 45 km. from the airport and some 55 km. from Palma, in an area
unspoilt by mass tourism. It is a peaceful area, with very natural surroundings
and has a lovely scenery. Since April 2003 we are included into to the
marine-national parc of migjorn, (which comprises the area from Cabo Blanco to
Cala Figuera.)

It
is part of the Municipality of Santanyí, which is some 4 km. away. Close by,
going down the coast, in a western direction is Cala Llombards, followed by Cala
S'almonia and es Calo d'es Moro (a very lovely place) in the heart of the
countryside, alongside es Rafal and S'Avall in a Protected Natural Park. Only 3
km. to the east is the very pittoresque fishing port of Cala Figuera and the Cala
Mondrago Natural Park.

There are some very interesting places in
Cala Santanyí. In the bay itself is a slipway with the boathouses of the
fishermen. There is a lovely underwater cave that is a must do for qualified
divers (those who do not have the experience can learn it at the PADI diving centre located on the
edge of the sea); Yet on the other side is a very old defence tower recently
restored. However, there is no doubt the most famous landmark in Cala
Santanyí is "Es Pontas", a stone arch carved out by the force of
the waves.
