Another great route while on holidays in Cala d’or are the Caves of Drach located in Porto Cristo. The four caves, called Black Cave, White Cave, Cave of Luis Salvador, and Cave of the French, are connected to each other and are more than 4km in length. There is an underground lake situated in the caves called Martel Lake, which is about 115 m in length and 30 m in width, and its depth varies between four and twelve meters. There is a video in this post for you to geat an idea of what you will see ther.
These caves are located in the east coast of Mallorca and can take up to 30 minutes to get there in a rented car from Cala d’or. It is great oportunity to travel there and stop in the beach of Cala Varques before arriving to Porto Cristo or after the visit of the Caves. The timetable to visit the Drach Caves during high season is:
10:00 h, 11:00 h, 12:00 h, 14:00 h, 15:00 h, 16:00 h y 17:00 h. There is a ticket to be paid and it can be cheaper to buy it online than at the ticket sales office in Porto Cristo.
