The Caves of Drach
On our Mediterranean cruise in 2025, we chose to purchase an excursion in Mallorca. A bus took us from the cruise ship to the Caves of Drach, or Cuevas del Drach. Their official website is here:
Caves of Drach Cuevas del Drach is on the other side of Mallorca from Palma, so we drove all the way across the island to get there. You can watch a video of our video to the caves here:

We walked through the caves and viewed all of the stalactites and stalagmites. As part of the tour we sat in an underground stadium and watched a live concert performed in boats on Lake Martel, the beautiful underground lake in the cave. We weren't allowed to video tape or take photos of the concert, but it was amazing! It was a floating orchestra that played as the boats floated through the lake. I would highly recommend the tour even just for the concert! The acoustics in the cave are amazing. You can see what it's like in the cave and listen to the acoustics in the first episode of season 2 of the Mallorca Files:

| After the concert ended, if people wanted to they could wait in line to ride in the boats on Lake Martel. We chose not to wait in line, instead we walked along the walkway alongside the lake |

Information or Memorabilia about Mallorca
Whenever I visit a new place, I always purchase earrings from this place. I love to wear the earrings and remember my visit to whichever destination I had purchased them from. Pearls are a main industry of the island of Mallorca. I purchased many pearl earrings from Mallorca, including one pair from a pearl factory that we toured. You can purchase pearls at most of the gift shops in Palma, as well as various other souvenirs. You also can find pearls from Mallorca online at
Majorica, which is the most famous brand in Mallorca. You can also purchase items to help your trip to Mallorca run more smoothly on sites such as Amazon. Disclaimer: As an Amazon Associate, I earn on qualifying purchases. This is at no additional cost to you.
