A small Spanish town, cozy andcharming, which will be the starting point of our journey, called Pollensa. It is protected by mountains, we bathe by the sea and differs surprising severe beauty of huge inaccessible rocks. The combination of age-old pine trees with warm, affectionate beaches is exactly what fascinates many tourists of the region. And this is only the first impression, because everything will outshine Cape Formentor in Mallorca, where you can see simply stunning scenery.
To begin with in Polens you need to visit the hillPuig de Calvary, which is not led by one hundred steps. In total there are three hundred and sixty-five, but on the way you can rest and enjoy the aromas of intoxicating air. At the top you can admire the antiquity of antiquity. Thus, Puig de Maria dates back to the 15th century, the monastery of Santo Domingo, along with the charming Roman bridge - to the XIV. Here, the beauty and inviolability of ancient buildings is striking.
Enjoying the magnificent views of Polensy and itsold architecture, you can go to Cape Formentor in Mallorca. In this place everything that previously aroused admiration will seem unprepossessing and boring. As new species and emotions will be an order of magnitude stronger. Let's start with the mountain streamer, which connects Polensu with the end point - the lighthouse. It's still a pleasure to go on it. The road curves like a snake, just a few meters away - a turn, beyond which, naturally, nothing is visible. It seems that the oncoming cars go straight to the forehead, and on the other hand - a dimensionless abyss. In addition, there are plenty of bicyclists on the road, which is for the better - cars have to adhere to a very reasonable speed.
To be afraid of dodgers when approaching a serpentine to the capeFormentor in Mallorca is not worth it. Drivers here are very neat, give way to each other and pedestrians. To get lost too will not work - there are so many pointers that it is easier to get lost in three pines. Yes, and the highway from Polensy to the lighthouse leads only one thing, to turn off the road just nowhere, in any case, reach the famous beach. There you can leave the car in the parking lot and go to the famous beach. The photo of Formentor Point in Mallorca is simply not able to convey all its beauty, so it's better to see it with your own eyes. This is one of the most visited places in Spain. And if you have such an opportunity, be sure to visit there.
The cape itself is on the northern extremitythe Spanish island and already from the airplane is a magnificent sight - a narrow and winding whip, which resembles a huge man sunbathing in the sun, arms outstretched. From the cape the view is even more fantastic. The vast sea spaces, mountain ranges, protruding into the sea by awesome majestic cliffs and a small wild island Kolomer. Leaving the car in the parking lot near the beach Formentor, tourists can immediately go down to the famous fairy-tale beach or go to the lighthouse of Cape Formentor in Mallorca.
The cape is the extreme northern point of the whole island.Here as in the palm you can see not only Polensy Bay, but also another world-famous Spanish resort - the island of Menorca. True, if the weather is lucky. On a stormy day, visibility drops significantly. But even in the storm, the view from the lighthouse is simply stunning - the raging waves smash to the rock on which the lighthouse is located. An incredible sight is not for the faint-hearted. At this moment you especially feel your insecurity in front of the elements.
The lighthouse of Cape Formentor (Cap de Formentor)is located at an altitude of 300 meters above sea level. This area is especially popular with tourists, although the beach Formentor and Pollensa are not considered places of large population - it is forbidden to build large hotels and noisy institutions you will not find. Unless artists come here massively. Types of such beauty on the whole planet - a rarity.
The best way to reach the lighthouse and the beachFormentor - rent a car. There is also a bus from Pollensa beach, but it leaves only once a day at 10:15 and arrives at about twelve o'clock in the afternoon. Not the best option, therefore, if there is a choice, it is better to rent a car. In favor of the latter option, says that the bus only reaches the observation platform, from which it is impossible to walk far to the beach and the lighthouse and it is impossible to reach. Most of the beauty in this case remains behind the scenes.
Another quite acceptable option is a taxi, butit must be ordered in advance by phone. The town of Pollens is small and it is impossible to find a taxi quickly. It can be reached first to the viewing platform, then go to the beach and the lighthouse, quietly stroll, while the car waits, and then go on it home. A visit to Cape Formentor must be included in the program of the trip, if you were in Mallorca. This is really a wonderful place, after which there will be a lot of positive impressions.
