If returning by boat leave a car in Port de Soller, big paid parking near Parc Municipal.
If returning on foot leave a car in S'iletta de Can Gordo (narrow and bumpy road).
With the other car follow directions for "Mirador de Ses Barques", where you can park or along the road.

From "Mirador de Ses Barques" the main road is closed by a gate and only residents, authorized people and customer of farmhouse "Balitx d'Avall" are allowed to pass. Otherwise follow the road and take the first descending road on the left and than follow the signs for the marked path, with some other open pedestrian gates, which will bring you back to the main road shortly after. From there follow it till the farmhouse "Balitx d'Avall", overcome it on the right and follow the streambed, which can appear dry, until it is joined by a tributary and usually the water flow appears right after the first pool.
From the lower parking lot "S'iletta de Can Gordo" follow the path towards the canyon, go over a gate before the second gate and descend briefly to the left to then immediately change to a beautiful path that runs horizontally over the cliffs. Follow the path until you reach a stone with red color markings, turn left down towards es Joncar, the exit from the sea, slightly uphill to the right the path leads to our ascent, the Pas d'es Heura. Follow the path into a saddle below a prominent rock tower (short climbing passage below a rock wall - do not climb up under the wall on the right). Behind the notch, descend fairly straight under the wall on the right, cross the valley and hike towards a rock amphitheater on the other side (cairns). If you only want to walk the lower part of the gorge, you can easily reach the stream here by descending through the valley. Climb over a rock ramp to the upper edge of the rock amphitheater and follow the climbing tracks and cairns for about 200m until you reach a sand road. Either follow this sand road uphill until another road branches off to the left, or onto the secondary ridge that drops into the Balitx valley on its right side and stay on it (stone wall) until you can descend to the right over steep forest terrain. You end up in a mostly dry side ditch which you follow to Na Mora.

Beautiful and not too demanding canyon with some nice pools to jump. The 1st part (until Cala Ferrera) is very open with only a few narrow sections. From the middle the canyon becomes increasingly narrow and continuous. If the water level allows it, you can do without the rope except for a few places (but just for descent) alternating jumps, downclimbs, slides and short swimming passages until you reach the sea.
Most pitches are equipped with fixed ropes that allow you to climb back over the ropes if the sea route is not possible. However, you should not rely on the presence of these ropes and take enough rope with you.

Option 1: once at the sea, swim out through a narrow channel, then turn left and swim through two bays before coming ashore in front of a 15m high rock (impossible even in moderate swell, so pay attention to the weather forecast), for an overall swimming distance of about 500m. In the erosion slope above the rock, a path begins that leads steeply and with difficulty back to the access path from "S'iletta de Can Gordo".
Option 2: return by boat, contact Sollermar which will wait for you at the canyon end and bring you back to Port de Soller; beware that there is bad mobile connection in the canyon and at the exit, so plan well in advance the timing and agree the collection time
Option 3: climb back the canyon, in most of the pitches there are fixed ropes but beware to always check.
