The small village of Punta de Capdepera offers not only a perfect touristic infrastructure, like many hotels, shops and restaurants - but it also offers a rugged waterfront that makes an interesting difference to the typical setup where the beach is usually close to the city center. Fortunately, the village has refrained from building any high rises, so it could preserve its image very well. It's located close to the Parc Natural de la
Peninsula de Llevant which offers beautiful hikes.

The yacht harbour of Punta de Capdepera adds to the positive impression of the village.

The beaches of the village are located at Cala Guya, just north of the village center. The water is clean and warm, with bright green and blue colors.

The beautiful town of Arta (pop. 6,000) marks the center of the region. Its pilgrimage church "San Salvador" and the Arabian bastion can be seen from the distance (pictured here on the right side of the photo).

Here is the church inside the Arabian Bastion, which sits on top of the hill right behind the Transfiguracio del Senyor from the 13th century.

This is the patio of the Bastion with its huge palm trees. It offers awesome views across Arta's surroundings...

...as well as views of Arta itself. Here you see that the town is made up from many small streets.
