Cabrera, a different island
28/06/2011
Island
of prisoners and legends, a natural reserve of great environmental
value, fantastic scenery and crystal-clear waters... The archipelago of Cabrera offers a truly unique experience to enjoy while on holiday in Mallorca.
Cabrera
is an uninhabited island that can be visited in summer. Discover all
its corners, the rich wildlife and a little gem known as the Cova Blava, a hidden cave where you can swim among bright blue waters and reflections of the light.
The archipelago of Cabrera has had a protected status since it was declared a National Park
and a Specially Protected Area of Mediterranean Importance (SPAMI). The
declaration safeguards the island from any attempts to build on it, and
provides other guarantees aiming to preserve this island paradise.
Camping
is not allowed on Cabrera but you can of course enjoy the stories of
prisoners and pirates, exceptional surroundings, plentiful marine life,
more than 500 catalogued species and, above all, coves where you can swim in a peaceful, safe and very pleasant setting.
Various
companies operate services taking visitors to Cabrera from the towns of
Colonia de Sant Jordi (Ses Salines), La Ràpita and Santanyí. In
addition, there's a visitor centre in Colonia de Sant Jordi itself, for
learning all about Cabrera's historical, maritime and environmental
riches.
There are day trips by boat from Mallorca to Cabrera. For more information, visit the 'Excursions to Cabrera' website.
