Cala Bona is a small fishing village - nearly 1,200 people - the eastern coast of the island of Majorca, which is gradually transformed into a seaside resort.
Unlike Cala Millor, much more lively Cala Bona has the authentic charm of fishing villages with quaint streets and small harbor lined with cafes to garden terraces, where you can see the fishermen mend their nets.
Cala Bona is located on the bay of Son Servera halfway between Cap des Pinar which closes the bay to the north, and the Cape of Punta de N’Amer who farm south. The village is dominated by hill na Penyal which rises to 203 m (the top you can enjoy a beautiful view of the coast and the bay).
The resort is also close to many tourist attraction in the eastern coast of Mallorca sites: 4 km south, Punta de N’Amer and watchtower, S’Illot and talayotic village, 10 km, Porto Cristo and the Caves of Drach and Hams, 13 km to the northwest, Artà and sanctuary 18 km north Cala Ratjada and its marine reserve.
On foot or by bicycle, taking the promenade a few kilometers to the south, it is possible to visit the neighboring resort of Cala Millor with its many shops, restaurants and bars.
The fishing port of Cala Bona is still used by local fishermen, but the Port Esportiu Cala Bona also now houses throughout the year boats.
