Mallorca airport transfers to Portopetro

To EXPERIENCE a real Mediterranean village, visit PORTOPETRO, in the SOUTHEAST of Mallorca, some 63 km (or just under 40 miles) from Palma city and Palma de Mallorca Airport, and if you tire of this simple paradise and yearn some nightlife, you can get glitzy and glam in the nearby resort of Cala D’Or.

ABOUT Portopetro
Portopetro is a small and charmingly pretty fishing village, flanked by hills, in the Municipal district of Santanyí, in the very south eastern corner of the island of Mallorca.

A marked lack of sandy beaches has kept mass tourism from the town and ensured Portopetro’s distinct and authentic character has been left largely untouched. Its beautiful rocky cove and fishing harbour have remained as they always have been, a working marina bobbing with traditional vessels and a coast lined with white washed villas and a few simple eateries and cafes.

EATING OUT in Portopetro
Like most of the ancient villages in Mallorca, life in Portopetro revolves around the main plaza, where you will find rcafes and restaurants, spilling out onto pavements, serving a selection of typical island snacks, tapas and more elaborate Mediterranean dishes. A few have shaded interior courtyards that are blissful on hot summer days and in the outskirts of town, and in nearby Ses Salines, there are a few more upmarket restaurants.

BEACHES near Portopetro
S’Amarador – Can be reached on foot from Portopetro, by car, on the coastal mini train or by glass bottomed boat.

Cala Mondragó – Located in the Mondragó Natural Reserve, this is a white sandy beach with rocky inlets and turquoise blue sea.

CYCLING in Portopetro
The countryside in the SE is fairly flat with occasional rolling hills. This is the flattest part of the island! So cycling here is perfect for clocking in the miles, training distances and for leisurely cycle rides around the vineyards and saltpans.

PARKING in Portopetro
Like most of Majorca in summer, it is best to avoid driving on the hot busy island roads, not because they are particularly dangerous (they aren’t) but because they get crowded and busy.

Booking a taxi or transfer service will allow you to avoid the hellish torment of finding parking space once you reach your destination.

With Mallorca Holiday Transfers we offer an easy and affordable solution: we drive you there and collect you later!
