What to see at Sa Calobra
Sa Calobra is the mouth of the Torrent de Pareis. According to Wikipedia's entry, the cove is about 50 m long and 10 m wide, with dark sand mixed with pebbles and gravel, and is surrounded by cliffs over 200 m high. From the port you walk through tunnels cut into the rock to the torrent beach, and there are restaurants by the port.
The Torrent de Pareis
The torrent starts at s'Entreforc, at 180 m above sea level, where the Gorg Blau and the Torrent de Lluc meet, and runs 3.3 km to the sea. It has been a Natural Monument since 2003. It is a popular hiking route, but Wikipedia notes that its difficulty and visitors' lack of preparation account for a quarter of rescues on Mallorca. Do not attempt it without current information, suitable footwear and a look at the weather in Soller. Other routes in hiking in Soller.
