Around five kilometres to the east of Palma lies the small resort town of Ciudad Jardin (also known as Ciutat Jardi).
Behind the beach lies a promenade and cycle lanes, and there is plenty of choice when it comes to funky bars and restaurants in the vicinity.
There are sun loungers and parasols to rent, showers and toilets, good access for the disabled, and lifeguards are on duty. There is also a decent playground for children right by the beach.

Getting Here
Setting & Location
Cuidad Jardin lies to the east of Palma, just along the bay from Portixol. It has been heralded as the next 'up and coming' place for the cool and trendy set of Mallorca.
Water Safety & Clarity
There is a wonderful beach here - located in a shallow bay, with calm, lapping waters that are as clear as a bell.
Beach Quality
This beach offers 450 metres of fine white sand (35 metres deep).
Beach Bars & Beachclubs in Mallorca
A number of smart restaurants and cafes have opened up along the sea-front, and although some of the buildings are still a little bit shabby, there is a definite Miami-South Beach feel to the place.
Watersports
There is a promenade behind the beach where pedestrians, roller bladers, segways and cyclists glide along the coastline from Palma to the beach of Playa de Palma. Otherwise, not much to do except enjoy the beach!
