On our last day, we explored the West of Mallorca, between Sant Elm and Palma. This is the beautiful
village of Sant Elm, at the very end of PM-103. White yachts are moored on crystal clear blue-green
water, the sky is blue, and the bench is waiting for someone to enjoy the scenery. How much better can it
possibly get?
|



Sant Elm could preserve its charme just because the village can be reached only through some curvy, narrow roads.
While there are a few bigger hotels, these do not disturbe the overall impression of a peaceful place for a vacation.
The village was first mentioned in the 13th century, and the Castell de Sant Elm can still be seen today.

Another photo of Sant Elm (or, as it is called in Castellan -Madrid Spanish-, San Telmo). You have access to the beach
and to the rocky coastline from almost anywhere in the village - stairs lead from the main street down to the water. But we actually
prefer their beach... :-)
|



This is the central beach of Sant Elm (San Telmo), and you can see one of the very few bigger hotels on the left
side. The view must be fantastic. Just imagine sitting on the patio in the evening, watching the sun go down, and
having a nice red wine!
|



Another photo of the central beach in Sant Elm. The beach is clean, wide enough for everyone, and has all the
facilities, restaurants and shops nearby.
|



The final photo of Sant Elm. The village is a good starting point for hikes into the surrounding hills.
Or take a boat trip to the Parc Natural de Dragonera, an island right in front of the bay. The island
is fully dedicated to the Natural Park, and is a paradise for nature lovers!
|



Now let's hop over to Port d'Antratx, a stylish and chic yacht harbour. I bet the two girls on the photo
enjoy the view as much as I do. :-)
|

Port d'Andratx may not be best known for its beaches, but for its excellent restaurants at the harbour.
They will be happy to cater you almost any time of the day, and the awesome views will be included
(and yes, they have tables in the shadow as well).
|



There not just yachts in the harbour of Port d'Antratx, but also traditional fisher boats like this one.
A walk along the piers is quite enjoyable.
