Cala Ratjada is a popular and vibrant vacation destination that retains the charm of a small fishing village. The large pine tree square serves as the center and marketplace. Along two shopping streets, you can find numerous shopping options, small boutiques, and supermarkets. The picturesque harbor, with countless bars and restaurants, and the 3 km long waterfront promenade are special highlights. The extensive nightlife is also very popular. Due to its beautiful surroundings, fairy-tale like landscapes, and the originality of the fishing village that has remained largely unspoiled, along with its lively nightlife, Cala Ratjada has become an extremely popular vacation spot for all ages, singles, and families. From Cala Ratjada, various excursion boats depart. In the town center, there are no high-rise buildings. The townscape is characterized by the harbor, typical small, old, Mallorcan fishermen's houses, the church, and the pine tree square, which serves as a marketplace on Saturdays.Popular Foods
