What to do in Camp de Mar 

Located in the southwest area of Mallorca, Camp de Mar is a small resort village in the municipality of Andratx on the Spanish Balearic Island of Mallorca and is very popular with repeat German holidaymakers that come back year after year. Despite being small, Camp de Mar boasts everything the tourist needs on holiday: a wide presence of hotels, restaurants, bars, a great beach and plenty of activities and attractions close by.

Hiking in the mountains and along the coast

For nature lovers we have the mountainous area of the Serra de Tramuntana close to the Camp de Mar centre, which offers many interesting hiking and biking trails, all of which are well signposted with informative boards. Two of the most renowned hikes in the area are to La Trapa, from where we can see Dragonera Island, and to the Puig de Galatzo, one of the highest mountains on the island with 1000m, from where to admire amazing views.

For a shorter trek, staying closer to the sea, we have the route to Cap Andritxol, an old defensive fortification used centuries ago to defend the coast of Mallorca against pirate attacks.

Visit the mountains by bus

In the area of the Tramuntana UNESCO World Heritage Site, you can enjoy the spectacular excursion from Camp de Mar to Soller and La Calobra combining boat trip, train ride, tram and coach. This has been voted as one of the best days out in Mallorca.

Beach and boat trips in Camp de Mar

For those who love the sea and the beach, Camp de Mar has the privilege of having one of the most beautiful beaches on Mallorca, for the transparency of its waters and the whiteness of its sand. However, Camp de Mar beach is a small beach but there is also a small islet just in front of Camp de Mar, which can be reached by a wooden walkway and is a nice place to relax in the sun or have a drink whilst enjoying the view.
