However, in the winters things tend to cool down there as well and Cala Millor town takes on a more peaceful atmosphere with many of the hotels and restaurants being closed between the months of November and March.
Though most of the people come to Cala Millor to relax in the sun and have a fancy dinner at one of the many restaurants, there are a variety of activities for adults and children to enjoy at Cala Millor which range from boat trips and watersports such as jet skiing, paddle boarding, canoeing, parasailing, to children’s theme parks and more.
The beach itself is quite spacious and has plenty of fine and light sand and is also good for children, especially those who like to run around since the sea doesn’t get too deep too quickly. Other than that, the beach was also awarded a Blue Flag for facilities and cleanness a few years back.
