Mal Pas - consisting of Playa de Sant Pere and Playa de Sant Joan, are two quiet, beautiful beaches just to the north-east of Alcudia
Sant Pere beach is the first one you’ll come to: 100m long and enclosed on either side by shelves of rock, this beach is the most accessible of the two with a wooden walkway leading down onto the beach from the main road where some free street parking is available.
Sant Joan beach is a short scramble over the rocks to the left of Sant Pere or a 5 minute walk back to the road and around. Access to this beach is trickier with stone steps down or a rough path through sand dune and brush, again limited street parking is available. Small though they are, both beaches tend to remain fairly quiet as the area around them has not been overly built up, private villas dot the coastline but as yet there are no towering hotels overlooking them. These beaches remain if not secret then at least underestimated by Alcudia’s beach going populous.
If you're good on your legs, you could access the beach from the Carrer de la Caleta and you’ll add to your day by descending via a little stone stairway walled on either side with heavily scented honeysuckle. Live like a local and head to these little known pretty coves.
Hotels
The closest hotels to the two beaches are both four star and one has direct beach access to Sant Pere. There are also a number of other villas and fincas in the Bonaire district. Alternatively, the nearest large town of Alcudia also has a wide range of accommodation options.
Restaurants
There are snack bars on Playa de Sant Pere and Playa de Sant Joan. The snack bar / café on Playa de Sant Joan opts for elegance instead of attitude with its covered seating area and white gauzy curtains floating in the breeze. If you walk right along the coast from the beaches, you’ll soon reach the small town of Bonaire with a small number of restaurants overlooking the boats.
Nightlife
If you’re looking to continue your holiday vibes well into the evening, head to nearby holiday hub of Port d'Alcudia, with different vibes and genres for everyone. An evening spent in one of their many bars and pubs, offering live music and outdoor seating, will often lead to later festivities in the lively nightclubs and discos.
