Photo Shoot · Porto Cristo
Porto Cristo is one of Mallorca's most authentic and characterful towns – a working harbour, a sheltered beach, dramatic cliffs and the world-famous Drach Caves nearby. A photo shoot in Porto Cristo tells a real story of Mallorca.
Porto Cristo stands apart from most east coast resorts because it's genuinely lived-in and authentic. The horseshoe harbour with its fishing boats and pleasure craft, the sheltered sandy beach in the bay, the cliffs and caves of the surrounding coastline – it has a completely different feel to more commercial resorts.
Holiday photos in Porto Cristo have real depth and character. Whether it's the harbour at golden hour, the cliffs in dramatic late afternoon light, or the intimate beach in the bay – every location has something unique to offer. For your photo shoot in Porto Cristo the harbour basin and the boat jetties form the backdrop.

Porto Cristo combines an authentic fishing harbour with a natural turquoise bay, historic alleyways and dramatic rocky coastline – all within easy walking distance.
Porto Cristo's traditional fishing harbour is full of character – colourful wooden boats, nets drying in the sun, the smell of the sea. In the early morning the reflections on the water are extraordinary.
AuthenticThe small natural bay at Porto Cristo is sheltered and strikingly turquoise. Framed by rocky cliffs and pine trees, it's a beautiful spot for family portraits and couple shots.
CoveThe narrow lanes and whitewashed houses of Porto Cristo's old town give a timeless, authentic Mediterranean atmosphere. Completely different in mood from the harbour or beach.
HistoricBeyond the bay, the rocky coastline stretches north and south with dramatic ledges, sea caves and pine-covered clifftops. Stunning for more adventurous portraits and creative compositions.

We had such a lovely experience with this team for our maternity photoshoot in Mallorca! From the first contact, everything was super easy and smooth. They recommended a beautiful location based on where we were staying, and gave us all the information we needed to choose the best day and time for the shoot. Communication was always quick and easy, and they were really flexible as well. Our photographer, Jessica, was absolutely amazing! We’re definitely not the most experienced in front of the camera, but she gave us such good direction that we felt really comfortable, and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. We also loved how quickly everything was delivered and the whole process was just so well organised. Overall, amazing value for money, we would 100% recommend them! 🤍
We had an amazing photoshoot! The photographer was so kind, patient, and creative. They really knew how to make the best of the situation, especially when the kids weren’t cooperating. We felt very comfortable and the photos turned out beautifully. Highly recommended
We couldn’t be happier with the results and highly recommend them to anyone looking for stunning photos and a wonderful photography experience. They are fast, reliable and very accomodating! Thank you so much!
Porto Cristo is one of the most characterful locations on Mallorca. It's a genuinely authentic fishing village rather than a purpose-built resort, and that comes through in the photos – real boats, real nets, real harbour life. Combined with the natural bay and the rocky coastline, it offers a range of backdrops that's hard to match.
The Caves of Drach are just outside Porto Cristo and are well worth visiting. We'd recommend scheduling your photo shoot in the early morning (the best light anyway) and then visiting the caves later in the day. It makes for a wonderful full day out on the east coast.
Yes – all three locations are close to each other on the east coast. Porto Cristo, Sa Coma and Cala Millor can be combined in an extended session for maximum variety. Just let us know what you're planning when you enquire.
Early morning is ideal. The harbour is at its most beautiful when the light is soft and golden and the water is still – the reflections of the boats are breathtaking. The natural bay also looks its most vivid early in the day before the sun gets too high.
Your professionally edited photos will be ready in your personal online gallery on the same day as the shoot. You'll receive a link by email and can download and share your images straight away – no waiting around.
Porto Cristo is unlike any other location on the Mallorca holiday photography circuit. Where most east coast locations offer sandy beaches and promenades, Porto Cristo gives you a working fishing harbour – colourful wooden boats, nets, lobster pots and all the authentic character of a village that has been fishing these waters for centuries. In the early morning, when the harbour is still and the light is golden, the reflections on the water are simply extraordinary.
But there's much more to Porto Cristo than the harbour. The natural bay is one of the most sheltered and turquoise on the island, framed by pine-covered rocky cliffs. The old town's whitewashed lanes wind up the hillside. And the dramatic rocky coastline beyond the bay offers something for more adventurous portrait work. Within a short walk you have an extraordinary range of different moods and backdrops.
We have been shooting at Porto Cristo since 2009 and know every corner of this remarkable place. Whether you're drawn to the harbour's golden morning light, the turquoise clarity of the bay, or the drama of the rocky coast – we'll find the perfect moments for you. And your photos will be in your gallery on the very same day.
