The 7 coves along this coast have gorgeous but mostly tiny beaches, surrounded by woodland and cliffs. The main beach of Cala D’or is Cala Gran - although it is 100 metres deep it’s only 40 metres wide so you may have to pitch your camp a long way from the waves. There is fine white sand and the water is wonderfully clear and inviting, ideal for swimming and water sports. There is a cafe on the shore. Nearby is Cala D’or itself, the small, pine fringed cove from which the resort takes its name. But it’s not all about the beaches - if you are a keen golfer, you will be happy to discover that there are five 18-hole courses along this stretch of coast, all easily accessible from your villa, including the fabulous Vall D'or course. Originally nine holes, it was redesigned in 1993 by American architect Bradford Benz to make a full 18-hole course. The rural setting, magnificent views and contrasting holes make this course popular with locals, ex-pats and visitors alike. Good news for tennis fans too - the nearby 5* Robinson Club Cala Serena has 13 clay courts and a floodlit sports bar.
