Beaches Nearby
Cala Deià
Famous beach with a fun little drive down the mountain before arriving at a beautiful cove with some lunch at Ca's Patro March a highlight.
Cala Llucalcari
While most people head to Deia those in the know head to Lluclari for equally stunning vibes in a much calmer and quieter cove. Access and parking are harder to come by so do your research beforehand.
What to Do
Hike to Sa Foradada
A hike from Deiá to Sa Foradada is a great way to take in the amazing scenery of this area and work up a sweat in the process.

Sunset at Son Marroig
Has to be one of the most amazing sunsets on on Mallorca. As the sun goes down in the west, this spot feels custom made for enjoying the golden hour.
La casa de Robert Graves
For some culture, the poet Robert Graves' home has been transformed into a little museum, Beautiful home and garden restored to their original purpose.
Deiá Archeological Museum
Deiá Archeological Museum and Research Centre should be on your list if interested in the history of Mallorca.
Take a Sunset drink at Na Foradada
A magical restaurant overlooking the ocean, this would also have to be one of our all time favourite sunset spots on the island.
Walk the small streets
It's one of the easiest and free activities to do in Deia. Simply stroll from one end to the other and poke around the narrow streets off the main road taking in what we think is the prettiest village on Mallorca.
Restaurants
Trattoria Italiana
The place to go for some Italian in Deia. Take in the views from the terrace and enjoy friendly service in a laidback atmosphere.
NAMA
We love Nama. Their terrace has amazing views. The modern Asian menu is top notch and the staff have always looked after us with impeccable service.

Café Miró
Cosy little spot for afternoon tea or cocktail hour. You can check out the artworks inside or enjoy some music on the terrace.
Xelini
Grab some Spanish tapas at Xelini, the lively restaurant with garden and more of those spectacular Deia views and vibes.
El Olivo
Belmond La Residencia's restaurant El Olivio is the place to go if you want to impress your date. Everything is of the highest quality with price range to match.
Ca’s Patro March
It's super well know due to it's stunning location perched above the sea at Cala Deia. But if you arrive in time for a seat you can't go wrong with a seafood lunch at this unassuming little restaurant by the sea.
Sa Fonda
Sa Fonda is a really happening meeting point for drinks and a melting pot of locals, tourists and anyone else drawn into by the music from the street.
S'Hortet
Healthy options at S'Hortet with salads and smoothies a refreshing option to the more typical menus elsewhere.
