Porto Colom

 This is the harbour of Felanitx. A quiet fishing place in Majorca´s southeast and one of the largest natural harbours of the island, refuge for countless boats looking for calm waters in the summer. An ideal place for those who like the charm of a fishing harbour.

Portocolom, where development has left its charm as a fishing port untouched, and which still reflects a delightful maritime air in its picturesque corners. Its lighthouse, built in 1860, 42 m. above sea level, enhances the beauty of this great Mediterranean port even more.

 The seafaring spirit of the place, its traditional artisan work, its close attachment to the land, its local dances and its regional cuisine continue still as the signs of identity of a Mediterranean town as many faceted, imperishable and different as its daily life.Prehistoric relics, hidden coves, charming villages and above all its friendly people who retain the beauty of the Mallorcan spirit within them.

 The Felanitx coastline has very many unspoilt heavenly coves of exceptional beauty. The most extensive is Cala Marçal which has every type of amenity. S´Arenal, close by the lighthouse, is smaller. The remainder of its coves, of difficult access, may be reached by boats which make the trip from the Port.

 The town is divided in two parts; the old town area around the port and the other part is the touristic area which offers a good supermarket, shops and some excellent local bars and restaurants.

Apart from being a fishingport, we also find the sailing club of “Club Nàutic de Porto Colom” here, where many pleasure boats start there trips along the coast
