Cala Deia has a waterside restaurant and snack bar. It is just a 25 minute walk or 5 minutes by car from the picturesque village of Deia which has many restaurants, bars, a general store, chemist and ATM. From the main road there is steep climb through winding streets to the church at the top of the village. It is in this churchyard that the poet Robert Graves is remembered with a simple headstone. From Deia it is possible to walk to the town of Soller (approx 4 hours) but for the less energetic there is a bus, which passes through the town 3 or 4 times a day. Soller is surrounded by mountains and orange groves and is famous for its mountain train that cuts up through the Serra de Tramuntana to Palma. Sitting in the shady square in front of the church next to the bustling market Soller seems a million miles away from the more popular tourist destinations. An old fashioned tram links Soller to Porto Soller where there is a clean sandy beach and numerous fish restaurants.
