Mallorca is an island that can boast of having incredible crystal clear beaches. This is precisely what those who go on vacation to the island are looking for the most, attracted by all those photographs of cozy rocky coves and clear waters.
To get an idea of all the corners that we can discover, we will leave you a list with the best beaches in Mallorca, some well known and busy and others not so crowded with tourists. If you are a lover of sandy beaches and crystal clear waters, you will want to travel the entire island to discover each of these beaches.
Torrent des Pareis, Sa Calobra
We start with one of the most spectacular beaches in Mallorca. This small sandy area is located between two rocky cliffs of two hundred meters, which make it seem an impregnable place. It is located in the Sierra de la Tramontana and if you like hiking you can do some interesting routes in the area.
Cala Varques, Manacor
Cala Varqués is a well-known cove where the typical hippies of the time went. It has many natural caves and today it is still a well-known place, although it is not easily accessible, which means that it is not crowded like others. You can also enjoy the natural arch made by the rocks.
Calo des Moro, Santanyi
This beautiful beach It is compared to a swimming pool, and when you get to it, it is what it seems. That we are facing a natural pool with incredibly crystalline waters nestled between two rocky walls. It may seem like the ideal place to disconnect, but we must say that in the middle of August this cove, whose sandy area is quite small, is full of people. If you go in low season, be sure to visit it.
Cala Mondrago, Santanyi
This little cove is a cozy place, which does not have that feeling of crowded in the summer months, and that without a doubt it is an essential place. It has clear waters and little depth, being ideal for families.
Formentor beach, Pollença
A narrow beach with many services, since it is in a tourist area. It has clear waters and great views of the Pollença bay. It is also surrounded by pine trees to enjoy some shady areas where you can rest. It is easy to get there by boat from Pollença or also by car, with a beautiful landscape to explore.
Es Trenc, Campos
Es Trenc beach is located in the Campos municipality and it is a large sandy area that is not developed yet, and for that reason it has a great value. It also has a lot of atmosphere on summer nights. A place with crystal clear waters and quite well known.
Cala S'almunia, Santanyí
This little beach is really peculiar. If you like the most authentic Mallorca, you cannot miss it. Of course, you will be facing a beach that does not have sand, so it is not a typical beach. On this beach you will find the fishermen's huts, a place from which you can take a bath, and also rocky areas from which you can jump into the water.
Cala Es Caragol, Santanyi
Leaving the car in the acquaintance Ses Salines lighthouse you can get to this beach, which is the southernmost beach in Mallorca. It is a small beach, but the good thing is that you have to walk about 20 minutes through some beautiful places to get to it, so it is not usually packed. One of those coves that is worth discovering and through which you can make that effort, especially for its tranquility.
Cala Mitjana, Felanitx
This Medium Cove It is located in Felanitx and has an area of rocks and vegetation and a large garden on the other hand. We continue before a place with beautiful crystalline waters. In the surroundings there are some large cliffs overlooking the coast of Mallorca, making it ideal for a family day, with a walk, picnic and bath included.
Cala Es Marbles, Arta
Getting to this cove is not easy, but that guarantees us that it is not packed in summer. Either you can arrive by yacht or you can arrive on foot, through rocky terrain. Be that as it may, the end result is worth it, with a paradisiacal cove with transparent waters.
Cala Agulla and Cala Ratjada, Capdepera
In the Capdepera area we find some nice coves. Cala Agulla is a beautiful beach between pine trees and mountains, near Cala Ratjada. A tourist area but one that has many options when it comes to bathing and sunbathing.
Cala Mesquida, Capdepera
This beautiful bay is wide and also has all kinds of services, being a fairly busy place in the northeast of the island. It is located near Cala Ratjada.
Playa de Palma
This may not be the best, but it is certainly one essential beach due to its proximity to the city of Palma. Very large and with all kinds of services, but very busy in summer.
