Details
For an unforgettable adventure, join us on our snorkeling trip to the pirate cave of Cala Varques. This extraordinary experience, which is also ideal for families with children from 8 years, is not to be missed! On board our powerful speedboat, we start from Portocolom and head full speed ahead for 20 minutes towards the cave. Along the way, we pass the beautiful bays of Cala s'Algar, Cala Murada and Calas de Mallorca.
Once there, we enter the inside of the spectacular cave, which unfolds in front of you like a cathedral of thousands of stalactites and stalagmites. We explore the chambers and tunnels of the cave and your experienced cave guide tells you more about the geology of this breathtaking natural wonder. We will also snorkel in the two freshwater lakes, which are characterised by their crystal clear waters.
After exploring the cave, we board the boat again. On the way back to Portocolom, we stop in a beautiful bay to go snorkeling once again and discover the underwater world of Mallorca. If you want, you can also prove your courage by jumping into the water from the cliffs.
*The activity can only take place under favorable weather conditions.Programme:
We meet at our dive centre in Portocolom where you will get to know your guide and receive your equipment. If you arrive by car, parking is widely available nearby. Then, we board our boat, which is moored very close to the base, and begin our 3.5-hour adventure. At the end of the trip, we return to the dive centre where you can take a hot shower and reflect on an eventful day in our restaurant.
