Cala Banyalbufar

The rocky coast of Mallorca where the Tramuntanas meet the Mediterranean Sea.

We've never been good at laying on the beach, so a hike down to the rocky coastline is right up our alley. We borrowed some snorkeling gear from our house and swam into the evening. We spotted the locals climbing out of the water further out in the cove, but we opted to let the waves carry us in. And then I got stung by a jellyfish! I guess we'd been obliviously taunting them close to the shore all afternoon. We always look to what the locals do when we're traveling. That little sting helps me remember.
