Largely free of tourist hustle and bustle, Arta offers a variety of interesting attractions. Excavated Bronze Age artefacts prove that Arta existed more than 3,000 years ago. The name 'Arta' is derived from the Arabic word 'jertan' meaning 'garden'. The view from the hill top fort, Sanuari de San Salvador, over the rooftops of the town is said to be one of the finest on Majorca. A visit to the village church is especially worthwhile. Several golf courses (e.g. Capdeperea, Son Sera de Pula) can be found in the north east. Many other sporting activities are possible in the near vicinity: horse riding, fishing, mountain climbing, cycling, mountain biking, sailing, diving, tennis, etc..
