Enjoying its ‘Blue Flag' status, Cala Agulla offers bright, fine sand and clear water with a turquoise hue. This beautiful spot attracts both tourists and locals alike with its wild beauty and combination of sand dunes, pine trees and desert plants.

Here you’ll find sun beds and parasols available to rent, lifeguards on duty, as well as public toilets and outdoor showers. Bear in mind that wheelchair and stroller access is limited as there is a short, sandy walk between the street and beach. Likewise, there is no covered area or boardwalk, so be sure to bring your sun hats and beach shoes to protect you from the summer heat.

2. Cala Moll & Cala Gat Beach, Cala Ratjada

Location
Capdepera

Cala Ratjada is a purpose built holiday resort in the north east of Mallorca, popular with northern Europeans. Cala Moll is the south of the resort and Cala Gat to the north. 

It is a lovely walk from Cala Moll northwards around the bays, and has lots of restaurants and bars serving every conceivable type of cuisine with every kind of atmosphere, from the hippy chic and ultra-modern, to rustic and traditional. The promenade takes you past La Ferradura, a tiny little cove, rocky but empty, leading in to the same beautiful sea. All along the path you can access the most amazing rock formations that are handy sunbathing platforms that lead you down into the cool waters. Eventually you will reach the harbour and the centre of the town. Here you can see the fishing boats and yachts whilst you enjoy a refreshing drink or meal at one of the many establishments around the harbour.

If you choose to walk on from Cala Ratjada towards Cala Gat, the promenade gets quieter, the restaurants and bars stop and you are left with a wonderful sense of peace and tranquility. Follow the coast round and you will find shady benches dotted along the promenade to stop and appreciate your surroundings. After a little while longer you reach Cala Gat, this is obviously where the locals go and you can see why.  The beach is not as busy as Cala Moll and the area surrounding it is absolutely stunning. The cove is ensconced at the centre of some amazing rock formations offering plenty of diving platforms for the young bucks willing to prove their bravery! There is a lovely little beach bar with a very relaxed, laid-back vibe.

Restaurants 
There are no dining options on either of these two beaches themselves, however there is a restaurant a short walk from Cala Moll, but worth checking if it is open outside of peak season. Between these two beaches, casual bars and restaurants offering Mediterranean cuisine line the coastal stretch. 

Nightlife 
If you’re looking to continue your holiday vibes well into the evening, head into the town centre of Cala Ratjada, which offers several bars and clubs for those wanting to let their hair down.
