First look at Camí des Salinar apartments

Even though local environmentalists have been campaigning to stop the development of even more luxury apartments on the sand dunes of Camí des Salinar, the work has been progressing apace.

Now, the first artist impressions of these new beachside blocks have been released.

They all look rather bland on the outside, but will set you back over a million and a half Euros each.

Viewpoint renamed in honour of Thomas Harris

Local artist and ex-British spy Thomas Harris has been honoured by the Andratx council with the dedication of the dramatic viewpoint on the cliffs of Torre d'Andritxol to his memory.

Thomas died fifty years ago in a car crash on one of the many twisty and dangerous roads of the time near Llucmajor. His work with double-agent Juan Pujol in deceiving the Nazis was a significant contribution to helping the Allies succeed in the Battle of Normandy.

A MEMORY OF CAMP DE MAR (Video)

In the twilight of an English evening a man plays his guitar and remembers a beautiful bay in Mallorca and the friends he met there. (Instrumental)
