Excursions & ActivitiesPorto Cristo4.7(65)Google

Porto Cristo is a charming little fishing village on Mallorca's east coast, centred around a picturesque natural harbour that's made for strolling and soaking up the atmosphere.

Harbour, Water & Atmosphere

What makes Porto Cristo special is the contrast between its calm natural harbour and the crystal-clear water — so clear, in fact, that you can watch fish darting about right from the shore. The harbour has an unhurried, relaxed feel that really comes into its own outside the peak summer months. Whether you're wandering along the pier or winding through the village streets, the sea and harbour basin are never far from view.

Cafés, Restaurants & Market

Around the harbour you'll find a good selection of cafés, restaurants and shops. Open-air market stalls add to the mix, offering handmade goods, fresh fruit and vegetables, leather goods, clothing and jewellery. A Sunday market takes place regularly, and on another day of the week a smaller market focuses on clothing and jewellery.

Getting There

Porto Cristo sits on the island's east coast. The harbour area is addressed at Carrer del Port 85, 07680 Porto Cristo. Historically the port town serving the inland city of Manacor, Porto Cristo is reachable by bus.
