Guide to Cala San Vicente

Full of charm and tradition, Cala San Vicente is situated on the North coast of Majorca, about nine kilometres from Port de Pollenca and 16 kilometres from Alcudia. Backed by the cliffs of the Formentor peninsula this is a quiet retreat with stunning scenery and beautiful beaches, where you can relax and enjoy the quiet ambience. Of the three beaches in this resort Cala Barques is the biggest with Blue Flag status, fine sand and beautifully clear waters. Though you will find a handful of bars and restaurants in Cala San Vicente more can be found in the busy Port de Pollensa, or even in the slightly more distant Alcudia. The choice is yours. There is no doubt that Cala San Vicente is the perfect place for a relaxing holiday.

Beaches

The main Cala Barques beach is the prettiest of the three bays on offer. Blessed by beautifully clear waters, and stunning scenery this is a great place to relax and unwind. Cala Clara is a more secluded bay, just the other side of a rocky knoll. Take a trip around the towering headland, and you'll find a third beach waiting to welcome you to a world of tranquillity.

Eating out

The beachside restaurants serve international cuisine alongside local favourites. Try 'sobrassada' - spicy sausage, followed by 'ensaimada' - spiral-shaped, sweet pastry for a true taste of Majorca.

Nightlife

Evenings are spent enjoying a meal at one of the local restaurants, or a quiet drink overlooking the bay. Nightlife here is very low key, but if you are seeking a lively night on the town, Alcudia is only a short journey away.

Shopping

All of the basics and souvenirs can be found in Cala San Vicente, but if shopping is an essential part of your holiday, take time out to visit the old town of Pollensa. Here you will find an extensive range of shops selling traditional pottery and contemporary ceramics.

Local information

Explore the natural beauty of the surrounding area on foot. There are several excellent walks, starting in Cala San Vicente and progressing through the stunning countryside. There are also some prehistoric caves to visit nearby and an Inca market on Thursdays. An absolute must is to visit old town Pollensa which has a host of charms to explore amongst its narrow streets, stone houses and artistic cafes.
