Discover Illetes
Illetes lies on the western side of Palma bay within Calvià municipality. Small sandy beaches alternate with rocky sections and accommodation beside the sea. The offshore islets give this stretch a distinctive visual reference, close to Cas Català and Bendinat yet with its own changing views across the bay.
A story to discover
The name Illetes comes from the small islands offshore. Coastal history also includes defensive structures, such as a watchtower dating to 1580 around es Fortí. These reminders of earlier surveillance predate the modern expansion of hotels along this part of Calvià.
