History
Cala D'or was founded as a fishing village. Cala d’or was adopted by bohemians in the late 1930s and an artists' colony was formed. From then, the development of the town was dominated by the growth of the tourism, which remains the main point of focus for this Mediterranean coastal region. However, glimpses of the town’s history still exist in the form of a busy, modern marina, i.e. home to a large number of luxurious yachts and an excellent selection of galleries offering a diverse range of artwork from throughout Spain and Europe.
