But Remus thinks further: he talks about sustainability and the responsibility that the construction industry also bears for the future of Mallorca.
Pure nature: magical caves and glittering bays
In addition to the people, Mallorca's nature plays the leading role: from the famous Caló des Moroa bay straight out of a picture book, to the fascinating sea cave Cova des Colomswhich can only be reached by swimming. These places show why preserving nature in Mallorca is not an option, but a necessity.
