Located on the southeastern coast of Mallorca, the Cuevas del Drach are a must-visit for anyone craving an underground adventure. These limestone cavern systems have carved out a labyrinth of tunnels and halls over thousands of years, revealing striking stalactites, stalagmites, and underground lakes. The cave's highlight is the impressive Lake Martel—one of the largest underground lakes in the world—where visitors can enjoy a classical music concert on a boat in the mysterious depths.
A guided half-day tour takes visitors through beautifully lit chambers that showcase geological wonders and natural formations. The caves are not just a display of nature's artistry but also rich in local history, with some formations believed to have inspired local legends.
