sIllot in Majorca
sillot is a town where we used to live. What I like most about it, is that despite the fact that there are a lot of hotels around, and three minutes from the house we have a beach, it is still quiet here. In the morning, roasting roosters awaken us, when I go out to the balcony, the view stretches out to sea and mountains. Sillot, Sa Coma and Cala Morlanda are literally a few hundred meters apart. You can go between these towns in 20 minutes.
sIllot in Majorca has its own beach
It is much smaller than the one in Sa Coma, but it is equally beautiful. There is a small harbour next to it, and lots of restaurants behind it. Here, however, there is not enough space to take advantage of all the water attractions. Despite this, there are scooters and paddleboards for rent. One of my favourite things in these places is the bike path. It is pulled along the coast. You can cross it through all the beaches on the coast, but I like the S’illot – Cala Morlanda section the most.
s’Illot in Majorca is located in a very touristic area
The whole day and night is full of life here. People can be heard walking in the streets. Cars pass every now and then, with loudly reacted music and other Spanish rhythms. And at night, motorcycles sound like roaring cows. That’s how life in S’illot looks like. It rolls slowly and drowsily. Insular climate and well-being. Everyone has time, they are not in a hurry. Many people eat breakfast in a restaurant, necessarily with coffee. Every week, during the season, the market is opened here on Thursday evenings, which is visited by traders from all of Majorca, offering us various flavors, clothes, jewelry and souvenirs.
In S’illot, opposite the Hotel Mariant there are the remains of Poblat Talaiòtic de S’illot – the village of Talaiotic
The earliest discoveries date from 2200 BC, and the estate itself dates from around 1100 BC. This place reflects the Talaiotic culture of the Balearic Islands between the end of the second millennium BC and the Punic wars at the end of the first millennium BC. The settlement housed about 200 inhabitants and settlers mainly cultivated agriculture. They also raised pigs, sheep and hunted. The estate was abandoned during the Roman colonization of Majorca in 123 BC.
Is it worth to come to sIllot for a holiday?
Definitely yes. There are plenty of bars and restaurants. S’illot is a small city so that you can get to Sa Coma in five minutes, or on Cala Morlanda on foot. The beach is not one of the largest, but everyone will find a place here. There are restaurants and hotels by the beach, so there is a place to eat. Rescuers and toilets are on the beach. There is a beautiful promenade around, which you can walk all the way to Cala Bona. In S’illot there is also a mini amusement park for children. There is also a pool table and a mini bar. Answering the question: yes, it’s worth it! There is everything you need for a perfect holiday! 🙂
If you are visiting this place with kids, you can also think about visiting Safari Zoo, Dinosaurland + Hams Caves, or Drach Caves. There is also a small water park called La Reserva in Cala Millor and plenty of other attractions for kids. The local cruises starts from Sa Coma and all the tickets can be bought there, but also online. For all the tickets, pricings and opening hours, read below!
