White, sandy beach with clear blue water located just north of Alcudia
Take a coastal stroll or cycle to the little hidden gem Platya des Morer Vermell just north of Alcudia, with its white sand and calm waters perfect for snorkelling.
Only 200 m long, the beach is not huge but there are enough rocky expanses either side to explore if you want to find some privacy. There are no facilities on the beach, not even loungers or a lifeguard.
If you fancy a change from your regular beach, a coastal stroll that ends in white sands, or want a holiday a little off the beaten track but still town accessible, then check out environmentally certified Platya des Morer Vermell, this small white sand gem with crystal clear waters only 1.5 km from Alcudia.
Restaurants
There are no chiringuitos or snack bars at the beach, however, a short walk takes you across to the well located seafront British Pub, Red Rum. Open 11am until 1.30am the Red Rum serves traditional pub fare with British and Spanish accents and is a good spot to stop on your way to the beach or to come back to for lunch. For more options, head to Alcudia where there is a wide range of local and international eateries.
Hotels
There are private villas for rent along the coast and also two hotels beach adjacent, both with great views and outdoor pools. One has a private area of sun loungers and parasols at the beach but it is on a concrete terrace by their pool and so doesn’t take up valuable sand space.
In nearby Alcudia, there’s a large amount of accommodation to choose from with several beach front hotels specialising in kids’ entertainment as well as more luxurious options with rooftop pools and bars overlooking Mallorca’s northern peninsula.
Nightlife
If you’re looking to continue your holiday vibes well into the evening, head to nearby holiday hub of 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.
The coastline weaves in and out and you can stroll along the rocky path around little coves as you marvel at some of the beautiful properties that line the waterfront most with their own jetties and rough docks in front. Until you reach Morer Vermell you won't find another patch of sand but there are many areas of flat rock jutting out into the calm, clear waters. If you can't wait and need to pop in for a swim, some of the outcrops have metal swimmers stairs bolted to them to make access easier.
In terms of amenities there aren’t any toilets on the beach nor is there a lifeguard station but there is a town, also called Morer Vermell, which contains a supermarket and souvenir shop. You’ll find the small town easily - it's just one street back from the beach and there is ample parking available.
The water remains fairly shallow until quite far out and is calm and sheltered, making it a fun spot for children to play.
A soft sandy beach, perfect for lounging on towels.
The water is beautiful with a sandy entry up to hip depth and then rocky from there out - a great spot for snorkelling and crabbing. For watersports and dive shops, head to Port d’Alcudia, approximately 3km away.
Those arriving by car can easily find parking near the beach. You can also take a bus from Puerto Pollenca and if you get off the bus at the ‘corner’ of the bay closest to Alcudia, then you can walk around the last few outcrops of the bay to Platya des Morer Vermell. Alternatively, you can get the bus into Alcudia and walk out through the town from there, which is roughly 1.5 km.
