Calvia’s beaches

Calvia is located in the south west part of the Island of Mallorca and is close to Palma, the capital of the Island.  It is encompassed with the Sierra de Tramuntana mountains and is just a few kilometres from the Santa Ponca inlet. The coast consists of cliffs and there are beautiful views of the sparkling blue waters of the sea, which are very tempting for a refreshing dip.  This area has a variety of types of accommodation, with some of the exclusive ones located in the area of Illetas and its coves.  There are a variety of different water sports available on the large beaches at Santa Ponca, Magaluf and Palmnova, with the peaceful area of Peguera and its beautiful groves of pine trees.  It is possible to hire a boat to enable you to see the area from the seaward side, or to hike up the cliffs.
