You can climb to the top, via a pathway which at one point is tunneled through the rock, and marvel at the Mediterranean seascape.  At the foot of the rock are the salt flats, used in Roman times for salt production and now an important habitat for a variety of migratory birds including flamingoes and herons.

Visit the fishing port, once used by the Phoenicians and Romans, where there are a range of water sports and activities including scuba diving, windsurfing, water skiing and sailing. The transparent waters and rocky outcrops, coves and caverns make this area perfect for scuba diving. Sail from the club and explore the coast, stopping en route at the Cova dels Coloms, a marine cave which serves as the mouth of an underground, fresh-water stream.
