Calvia

Built around an inland farming settlement below the Serra de Tramuntana, Calvià grew into the administrative centre of a municipality that reaches Mallorca’s Mediterranean coast. The old town remains distinct from the busier shoreline communities of Palmanova, Magaluf and Santa Ponça, which all lie within the same municipality. Its parish church of Sant Joan Baptista marks the traditional centre, while lanes lead through cultivated ground toward the slopes of Puig de Galatzó. Calvià’s setting explains the contrast that defines southwest Mallorca: a rural interior close to beaches, marinas and resort districts.
