Mondragó Park – Mallorca airport transfers to Cala D’Or

The Mondragó Natural Park is located near Santanyí and covers 785 hectares, of largely private land. The landscape consists of open ravines, streams, beaches and small dunes, as well as the Ses Fonts de n´Alis cove and a heathland of autochthonous flora and a great variety of trees. Rich in mammals, amphibians, reptiles and numerous bird species inhabit the area, including shags and ospreys, and hence it is very popular with the bird watching community.

The natural park was formerly created on the 18th of August 1992 in a move to conserve the natural heritage of this spectacularly beautiful part of Mallorca, following a popular movement against development in the area.

If you are interested in walking in the area, there are 4 different itineraries which take between 25 and 40 minutes to walk, and the Mondragó Nature Reserve Information Centre, next to the Ses Fonts de n´Alis car park opens from Monday to Sunday from 9 am to 4 pm.

There are also a couple of beaches here, mostly unspoilt and set against pine forests and lapped by a crystal clear sea; S’Amarrador, the most virgin beach of the three, is a stretch of white sand, 160 m long and 50 m wide, Sa Font de n’Alís is set against the marshland and has a hotel and restaurant, and finally, Caló des Burgit is a small 18 m long and 15 m wide beach at the end of the Mondragó park.
