AttractionsThe more energetic may consider hiring a bike to explore the surrounding countryside, including the inland town of Felanitx, and the port of Porto Colom. Serious cyclists can even tackle the climb to the sanctuary of San Salvador above Felanitx.A glass bottomed boat trip along the fjord like east coast, with its remote beaches and pine fringed coves, is a must. Some of the trips stop at Porto Cristo, giving you time to visit the Dragon Caves. Others visit the sand and shingle beach at Cala Murada, just south of Calas de Majorca. Take the cliff path walk right along the coastline of Calas de Majorca for some lovely views. The best access to the path is from the main Cala Domingos beach. You can watch parrots perform acrobatics at the Exotic Parque Los Pajaros just outside the resort. There are also flamingos, a children's zoo and a garden containing several varieties of cactus. Open every day from 10am to 7pm. Jumaica is another tropical garden and banana plantation just outside the resort on the Carretera Calas de Majorca, Porto Cristo, open during the summer from 9am to 6pm and in the winter to 4.30pm.
