Mallorca – our home
Mallorca is unexpectedly diverse — not only below the water but also above. Legendary party nights, relaxed beach days, cycling, hiking in the Tramuntana mountains, Mediterranean cuisine, adventures at sea or simply a few days of switching off under the palms. That's exactly what makes the island so special.
Port d'Andratx
Anyone who wants to really get to know Mallorca should also discover the southwest around Port d'Andratx. Because here a different — perhaps even the most beautiful — side of the island reveals itself. Less hustle and bustle, but incredibly atmospheric, with breathtaking nature, turquoise water and that special Mediterranean flair of authentic Mallorca.
Many of our guests originally come to the island for the sun, the beach or maybe even a party night – and then fall in love right here with this relaxed, stylish side of Mallorca. Port d'Andratx itself is one of the most beautiful harbour towns on the island. To this day the harbour is shaped by traditional fishing boats, while elegant sailing yachts moor alongside, and some of Mallorca's most impressive villas overlook the bay. Among them the former summer residence of King Juan Carlos, perched high above the harbour. It's precisely this mix of original fishing village, Mediterranean lifestyle and international flair that makes the place so unique.
In the evening the harbour promenade turns into one of the most beautiful spots on the island. People sit relaxed over tapas, seafood or cocktails right by the water, street musicians play in the background and the sun slowly disappears on the horizon. Particularly popular are venues like Tim's or Mitj & Mitj – perfect for a stylish drink at sunset and a completely different kind of Mallorcan nightlife. Easy-going, refined and simply relaxed.
Anyone who loves culture and lifestyle will love Port d'Andratx too. Small boutiques and galleries invite you to stroll and shop.
Andratx and the southwest
There's an incredible amount to discover around Port d'Andratx. The small town of Andratx invites you to linger with its authentic atmosphere. Culture lovers shouldn't miss the CCA Andratx – one of the most important centres for contemporary art on Mallorca. The weekly market in Andratx is also known across the entire island for its welcoming atmosphere.
The small village of Sant Elm, with its sandy beach and view of Dragonera, feels almost like another era and is perfect for relaxed outings or a sundowner right by the sea. Camp de Mar wins you over with its beautiful bay, beach clubs and crystal-clear water. Peguera combines lively promenades with beaches and many small cafés, while Santa Ponsa is especially popular for day trips, shopping or relaxed evenings by the water. Many of these places can be wonderfully explored by bike, scooter or even on foot along the coast.
Even away from the sea, the region has an incredible amount to offer. In spring, the southwest of Mallorca is one of Europe's most popular destinations for road cyclists. The coastal road towards Banyalbufar or Estellencs is among the most beautiful routes on the island. Hikers find ideal conditions here all year round – from relaxed coastal paths to spectacular tours in the Tramuntana mountains. Particularly impressive are hikes to the old monastery of Sa Trappa with views of Dragonera, or to hidden bays like Cala Egos and Cala Monjo.
And this is exactly where we are at home. With Diving Dragonera we show our guests not only the most beautiful dive sites of Mallorca, but above all this special way of life around Port d'Andratx. Whether diving, snorkelling, sunset tours or simply tips for the most beautiful places in the region – we love this part of the island and want to share this enthusiasm with our guests. Anyone who's been here once quickly understands why so many keep coming back.
