With an entry ticket for the Cuevas dels Hams in Porto Cristo you will enjoy a special cave experience

Majorca has a breathtaking landscape, a wonderful alpine world and paradisiacal beaches with turquoise water, but the island has more treasures to offer. One of these special natural treasures can be found on Mallorca with your entry ticket to the Cuevas dels Hams in Porto Cristo. The cave system has been excavated and formed over thousands of years by water, so that it now has a unique formation of stalactites, stalacmites and an inner lake.

The cave system is divided into three caves, which you can visit with your entry ticket for the Cuevas dels Hams. The round cave  was once completely closed, but nowadays you will find a botanical garden and you can also discover some native bird species. The classic cave of the Cuevas dels Hams in Mallorca is home to a small lake and wonderful cave walls formed by the vigor of the water.

Finally, you will be captivated by the blue cave: in a beautiful color game, which makes the cave a magical place, you will immerse into the history of Majorca and the Cuevas dels Hams in Porto Cristo, as well as in the history of the first inhabitants of the island. The history of the Cuevas dels Hams in Porto Cristo dates back to approx. 10 million years ago, but the unique cave system was discovered in 1905 by the cave explorer Pedro Caldentey Santandreu, who was looking for the gemstone type "Onyx". In 1910, when there were no electrical supplies in Porto Cristo, Santandreu set up an electrical system to illuminate the caves, and the Cuevas dels Hams on Majorca became an excursion destination.

With your entry tickets for the Cuevas dels Hams in Porto Cristo,  you can look forward to a great trip with your whole family at a great price - children up to 4 years can even benefit from free entry.

great tour

The tour to the Cuevas dels Hams was simply fantastic! The caves are a real natural wonder and my children were absolutely thrilled. The transfer went really well and the guide was very knowledgeable. The colour spectacle in the blue cave was particularly breathtaking. The only downside: no food included, so bring your own snacks. But what the heck, the rest of the tour was a real highlight. Highly recommended for families looking for a little adventure!

geile tour

Die Tour zu den Cuevas dels Hams war einfach klasse! Die Höhlen sind ein echtes Naturwunder und meine Kinder waren total begeistert. Der Transfer hat super geklappt und der Guide war top informiert. Besonders das Farbspektakel in der blauen Höhle war atemberaubend. Einziger Minuspunkt: Kein Essen inklusive, also Snacks mitbringen. Aber was soll's, dafür war der Rest der Tour ein echtes Highlight. Absolut empfehlenswert für Familien, die ein kleines Abenteuer suchen!
