SURROUNDED BY NATURE
COLÒNIA DE ST PERE
AN AUTHENTIC PIECE OF MALLORCA
Welcome to Colònia de Sant Pere, a small, authentic fishing village on the Bay of Alcudia, not far from the traditional town of Artà. The picturesque harbor forms the heart of the village and is the starting point for boat trips to the many beautiful coves with crystal-clear waters, inaccessible from land. The unspoiled coastal landscape and the expansive nature reserve are simply breathtaking. The Ermeta de Betlem is a popular hiking destination and a recognized energy center, whose energy permeates the entire region. Perhaps this is where the magic lies? This area exudes a sense of well-being that can be found in only a few places in Mallorca. Living here is a privilege.
A REFUGE FOR INDIVIDUALISTS
Colònia de Sant Pere is one of the most beautiful places to live on the island and, at the same time, the starting point for a multitude of fantastic activities. Here is some information about the region:
It's the most picturesque harbor in Mallorca. Early in the morning, the fishing boats arrive and present their catch. If you own a boat, this romantic harbor is the perfect destination. From here, you can take extended boat trips to secluded coves accessible only by water.
Mallorca is known for its beautiful golf courses. There are five excellent golf courses nearby, including what is considered the most scenic golf course in Mallorca: Golf de Alcanada, with its 17 holes and magnificent views of the Bay of Alcúdia.
Water sports enthusiasts have a choice between the magnificent long natural beach and numerous small coves with crystal-clear water. Here you can swim, snorkel, and dive. Or perhaps you're more interested in surfing or stand-up paddleboarding. Or simply relax on the beach.
The area offers an extensive network of hiking trails. Hike around the Puig de Ferrutx or visit the spiritual center of the Ermita de Betlem. Or walk for hours along the pristine beach. Sometimes you can be completely alone here, as crowds of tourists don't flock here.
Do you love authenticity and regional cuisine? This region boasts several charming little restaurants with excellent cuisine. Es Vierers and Sa Xarxa serve wonderfully fresh fish. Can Kiwi offers delicious brunch and lunch menus, all organic.
Cycling in Colònia de Sant Pere offers a mix of coastal routes with sea views and hilly trails in the hinterland. Popular routes lead through the Son Real nature reserve with its historical sites or along the Bay of Alcudia, with options for both easy and challenging rides.
Every Saturday, a small but charming market takes place in Colonia de Sant Pere. Nearby, on Tuesdays, larger markets are held in Alcudia and Artà, known for its large selection of fruits and vegetables, clothing and Mallorcan handicrafts.
Families with children will find excellent schools here. The town is home to the CEIP Rosa dels Vents primary school, which incorporates elements of Montessori and Waldorf education. Other recommended schools nearby include the Rafa Nadal School and the ISLA Academy.
