A popular challenge for tourists is a swim to Black Lizard Island (Isla de sa Porrassa) located in the centre of Magaluf Bay. The island is known by this name due to the very high number of black lizards that can be found scurrying away during one's climb. The island is situated right in the centre of Magaluf bay - the swim from the southern end of the beach (the longest route from the shore of the bay) is approximately 800 meters.
Isla de sa Porrassa (also called Isla de la Porrasa, Black Lizard Island) is located in the bay of Magaluf, Majorca, Spain. Measuring over 400 meters across at its widest point, the island is a feature at the heart of Magaluf bay.

The island is known by the name "Black Lizard Island" due to the very high black lizard population present on the island.

Cap de Formentor forms the eastern end of Majorca's Formentor peninsula. The Majorcans also call the cape the Meeting point of the winds. Cap de Formentor is a spectacular bluff, located on the northernmost point of the Balaeric Island Majorca. Its highest point, Fumart, is 384m above sea level. It has many associated bays, including Cala Fiquera, Cala Murta and Cala Pi de la Posada. The 13.5 km street which runs from Port de Pollenca to Cap de Formentor was built by the Italian engineer Antonio Paretti. His masterpiece on Majorca, however, was the snake to Sa Calobra. Instead of being overwhelmed by what stood in his way on the cliffs, Parretti observed the Tramuntana winds and understood: where the slope was too steep, he made a curve. When he had to remove part of the cliffs, he placed the waste in other places where it was needed. The result was the two streets, which like are nestled together in the mountains like abandoned silk ribbons.
Els Cornadors are a mountain range in Majorca located in the municipality of Sóller.
