Holidays to Porto Colom serve up a sensational selection of beaches from the main stretch of Cala Marcal, with golden sands, water activities and a line-up of coastal café bars, to Cala Nau in the south, with miniature beaches and coves to discover. If you want a taste of tradition, Porto Colom holidays are packed with charming towns - historic Felanitx being the closest with beautiful ancient monuments, including a fairy-tale hilltop castle sitting overlooking the resort.
