Drach and what makes them special?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>The Caves of Drach form an underground complex almost 1,200 meters long and up to 25 meters deep, located on the eastern coast of Mallorca, in Porto Cristo. Its history as a tourist attraction dates back to the 19th century, when the first documented explorations began.<\/p><p>The tour allows visitors to explore four large galleries: the Cueva Negra, the Cueva Blanca, the Cueva de Luis Salvador, and the Cueva de los Franceses. All of them are notable for their stalactite and stalagmite formations, which, thanks to the lighting designed in the 20th century, create a spectacular atmosphere.<\/p><p>The highlight is Lake Martel, which is 170 meters long and considered one of the largest underground lakes in the world. Every day, a live classical music concert is held here, with pieces performed from illuminated boats sailing on the water. This combination of nature and art is what makes a visit to the island a unique experience.<\/p><p>In addition, at the end of the tour, you have the option of crossing the lake by boat, a short activity that is highly valued by visitors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-892cc44 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"892cc44\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eclipse_solar_del_12_de_agosto_de_2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1536\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-1536x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-1536x1536 size-1536x1536 wp-image-42347\" alt=\"Cuevas del Drach, Mallorca\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-64x43.jpg 64w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1536px) 100vw, 1536px\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Cuevas del Drach, Mallorca<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cba37e2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cba37e2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_get_there_and_where_to_park\"><\/span>How to get there and where to park<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>The <strong>Caves of Drach<\/strong> are located in <strong>Porto Cristo<\/strong>, in the municipality of <strong>Manacor<\/strong>, about <strong>65 km from Palma<\/strong> and perfectly connected by road.<\/p><ul><li><strong>By car<\/strong>: from Palma, it takes around <strong>50 minutes<\/strong> on the Ma-15 highway towards Manacor, and from there, follow the signs to Porto Cristo.

It is advisable to bring water and, in summer, to go early in the morning to avoid long waits.<\/li><li><strong>Accessibility<\/strong>: the route includes walkways and stairs, so it is not fully adapted for people in wheelchairs or with reduced mobility. Before visiting, it is advisable to check directly with the organization.<\/li><li><strong>Photography<\/strong>: Flash photography is permitted. We recommend setting your camera or cell phone to night mode or high ISO to capture the formations without blurring. The use of tripods or selfie sticks is not permitted.<\/li><li>Duration and pace: the entire visit takes about an hour, with a comfortable route, although it can feel more crowded during peak season. Wear closed-toe shoes to avoid slipping in wet areas.<\/li><li><strong>Indoor climate<\/strong>: the temperature inside the cave remains around <strong>20\u00baC throughout the year<\/strong>, so in summer the contrast with the heat outside is welcome.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a87e5e2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"a87e5e2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n<section class=\"mj-tips\" aria-label=\u201cTips for visiting Cuevas del Drach\u201d>\n<style>\n.mj-tips{display:grid;gap:12px;background:#ffffff;border:1px solid #e5edf4;border-radius:14px;padding:18px}\n.mj-tip{display:flex;align-items:flex-start;gap:10px}\n.mj-ico{width:10px;height:10px;background:#2f6fbe;border-radius:50%;margin-top:6px;flex:0 0 10px;box-shadow:0 0 0 6px rgba(47,111,190,.08)}\n.mj-txt{margin:0;color:#374151}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"mj-tip\"><span class=\"mj-ico\"><\/span><p class=\"mj-txt\"><strong>Arrive early<\/strong> to avoid queues and park without any problems. <\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mj-tip\"><span class=\"mj-ico\"><\/span><p class=\"mj-txt\"><strong>Buy online<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cuevasdeldrach.com\/venta-entradas.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">your tickets<\/a> to ensure availability during peak season. <\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mj-tip\"><span class=\"mj-ico\"><\/span><p class=\"mj-txt\"><strong>Wear comfortable shoes<\/strong>: the ground may be wet in some areas. <\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mj-tip\"><span class=\"mj-ico\"><\/span><p class=\"mj-txt\"><strong>Flash-free photos<\/strong> are allowed; tripods and selfie sticks are not.\n<div class=\"mj-tip\"><span class=\"mj-ico\"><\/span><p class=\"mj-txt\"><strong>Take advantage of the indoor climate<\/strong> of 20 \u00b0C all year round as a break from the heat outside. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d2faefa elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d2faefa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1282\" src=\"https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-42343\" alt=\"Caves of Drach, Mallorca\" srcset=\"https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca-200x134.jpg 200w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca-1536x1026.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/treurer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Cuevas-Drach-Mallorca-64x43.jpg 64w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" title=\"\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1207821 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1207821\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_see_nearby_Porto_Cristo_and_the_coves_of_Levante\"><\/span>What to see nearby: Porto Cristo and the coves of Levante<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>A visit to the Caves of Drach can easily be combined with other places of interest in the Porto Cristo area and along the eastern coast of Mallorca.<\/p><ul><li>Porto Cristo: a former fishing port converted into a peaceful tourist destination. Its urban beach with fine sand is perfect for a swim after your visit. The promenade has restaurants specializing in fresh fish and seafood. It is also worth visiting the marina and the streets of the historic center.<\/li><li><strong>Cuevas dels Hams<\/strong>: located just a few minutes away by car, these caves offer a shorter tour with a different focus, famous for their artistic lighting in the shape of &#8220;hooks,&#8221; which give the place its name.<\/li><li>Nearby coves: along the coast you will find beaches that are less crowded than Porto Cristo. Some recommended ones are Cala Rom\u00e0ntica, Cala Anguila, and Cala Varques (the latter being wilder and accessible only on foot).<\/li><li>Serral dels Falcons Tower: a 16th-century defensive tower with panoramic views of the coast. It is an ideal viewpoint for photographers and history buffs.<\/li><li>Manacor: the capital of the municipality, known for its tradition of furniture making and artificial pearls. The Rafa Nadal Center, with its museum and tennis academy, is another attraction for those looking for something different to do.<\/li><\/ul><p>These proposals allow you to turn your trip to the Caves of Drach into a full day out combining nature, culture, and the sea.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delve into the Caves of Drach in Mallorca: an underground world with spectacular formations, the illuminated Lake Martel, and an unforgettable live concert underground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":42347,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","_joinchat":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[74,314],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42802","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog-olive-oil-culture","category-turismo-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42802","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=42802"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42802\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":42807,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/42802\/revisions\/42807"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/42347"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=42802"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=42802"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/treurer.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=42802"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
