| We spent four days in Port de Soller before continuing on along the northwest coast. Typical of many coastal harbors in Mallorca, the main rural town was situated a few miles back from the port. This was done as a defense against pirate raids in earlier times. Port d�Andratx was like this with Andratx lying just a few miles inland and a bus ride away. In Port de Soller there was a tram connecting the port with its town Soller. From our boat we could often hear its whistle as it traveled back and forth during the day between the port and town. While in Port de Soller we rode the tram one day up to Soller and spent a few days rendezvousing with cruising friends. |
