Six lighthouses in Mallorca that you cannot
Although Mallorca island is dotted with lighthouses, some stand out above the rest due to their beauty and historical value, as well as the landscape and sunsets that surround them. These are the most spectacular:
Porto Pi Lighthouse

Capdepera lighthouse
The Capdepera Lighthouse is one of the most popular on the island and is located in the easternmost part, just 20 minutes from Pula Golf Resort.
