Half-day tour to caves of Hams from the south of Mallorca
Travel to Porto Cristo, on the east coast, and enter the magical underground world of the Hams Caves in Mallorca. For thousands of years they were one of mother nature’s best kept secrets until Pedro Caldentey discovered the grotto in 1905. Nowadays, you can not only visit the caverns but also enjoy a short classical concert in the "Venice Sea" Lake.
Located in Porto Cristo, the Hams Caves (‘hams’ means fishhook in Catalan) are renowned worldwide for their stunning stalactites and stalagmites, their spectacular tree-like formations and the wonderful underground lakes. The incomparable beauty of these caves is highlighted by artistic electric illumination, designed by Lorenzo Caldentey, son of the discoverer. Several lakes are to be found within the cave system, the largest being the Sea of Venice, where a magical Mozart performance is held daily in a special tribute to the composer.
