The underwater world around Majorca Island is just as astonishing and diverse as the island itself. You can spend days on end exploring the world beneath the surface and experience close encounters with sea creatures. Cabrera is one of the most beautiful places to go diving in Majorca as it is in conservation since 1991. Only 2 dive boats are allowed to go there per day so you do need to make a booking in advance but its’ worth it!

Kitesurfing

The coastline of Majorca is 550 kilometres long. The wind blows across the island of Majorca from different directions and it sets the perfect conditions for kitesurfing. The kitesurfing spot is located in the north of the island in Pollensa. The best news is, you can do it all year round.
