Porto Cristo on Majorca's northeast coast is a small resort famous for its spectacular cave the "Caves of Drach"  The caves are considered to be some of the best in Europe and in the summer months Porto Cristo is swelled to bursting point with tourists from all over the island.  The caves have a huge cavern which sometimes features an orchestra and a beautiful lagoon on which a small gondolier type  boat sails past to the accompaniment of classical music.  I wish we could show you some photos but unfortunately they have a no photograph policy which is rigorously enforced.  The town of Porto Cristo itself is not over attractive, there are lots of souvenir shops and some bars and restaurants.  There is a very steep hill leading into the resort from the main road and the roads in the town always seem to busy with coaches.  The seafront area is very nice, there is a wide estuary flanked by cliffs which opens out onto a sandy beach.
