Calas de Mallorca is a resort built on the south-east coast of the island of Majorca, situated in the Mediterranean Sea. Majorca is a province of Spain, and is the largest island in the Balearic Islands Archipelago. This coastal resort is popular for people from all over the globe and for all ages, but specifically attracts a large number of families. The island is the largest in the general vicinity, and is the second most populated island, next to Tenerife in the Canary Islands.
Calas de Mallorca enjoys a traditional Mediterranean climate, like many of the other coastal cities and resorts in the vicinity. This area is not known for particularly devastating or dangerous weather, however there are a few hazards that potential travellers should be aware of.
Being a primarily coastal resort, water activities, swimming, boating, and other water-based activities are very popular. Occasionally, the underwater currents and riptides can become quite strong, carrying an unwary traveller too far out into the water. Normally, there are notices and other advisories when the currents are especially strong, so before swimming it's wise to take note of any warnings that have been issued.
The rainy season of Calas de Mallorca can also pose some hazards, mainly because of the islands innate rocky geography.

If you are visiting during the rainy season, take care when driving or navigating potentially slippery or hazardous landscapes.
