February in Mallorca - Cala Fornells

Sunday 10th of February in Cala Fornells, to the western end of Paguera along a pretty coastline and just 20 minutes drive from Palma.

Turquoise seas even during the winter months

A private villa perched on the peninsula with stunning panoramic views

A little windy but to experience warm temperatures and sunshine on a weekend in early February is magical.  

A drive around the island of Mallorca

Here are a selection of photos taken in the last 6 months showing how beautiful the island of Mallorca is even in autumn/winter.

Cala Figuera, south east coast

Friday 6th of January and the roads around the island are a joy to drive around; the Three Kings celebration is a bank holiday and a family day with the children, so many of the roads were clear.  Warm, but overcast so not great for photos, but ideal time of year to drive around the island to hidden locations.   Cala Figuera is known locally as "Little Venice" and is on the south east of the island approx 60km from Palma.  A very pretty little cala with a surprising number of little cafe bars open considering the special day.
