Mallorca Deep Water Soloing

Mallorca has established itself as Europe’s finest and most popular deep water soloing destination with many climbers coming here just for this. The island’s famous big golden pockets on steep overhanging walls of perfect rock are both enticing and intimidating. The splashdowns into the deep, warm blue water of the Mediterranean, followed by tasty tapas at one of the island’s many bars and restaurants make the place all the more memorable. The height of the routes varies from a bouldery 5m to a terrifying 20m, and grades from 3+ to 9a+ means that there is something here for everyone. Add all this together and it is not hard to see why this has become such a desirable destination.
While Deep Water Soloing was previously only included as a separate chapter in Mallorca Sport Climbs, Rockfax has now published a separate guide.
The guide is very clearly laid out in the tried and tested Rockfax style. All walls are described in great detail using pictograms (including orientation, hours of sunshine, visitor numbers) - additional information on climbing style, risk of falling and enjoyment factor is provided for the individual routes.
The photo topos were created using drone images and are very easy to read throughout. The guide is illustrated with many photos. There is also plenty of information on accommodation, food and drink, transport and other activities.

The following areas are included:
Cova del Diablo, Porto Cristo, Porto Cristo Novo, Cala Barques, Cova des Burador, Porto Colom, Cala Marcal, Cala Brafia, Cala Estreta, Cala Sa Nau, Cala Mitjana, Cala Serena, Santanyi, Cala Llombards, Port de Sóller, Sa Calobra, Porto Pi
