Cala Mesquida cove lies at the Northerly tip of the Eastern coast of the island in the Capdepera district and it is well worth the drive to get to it, though you can take the bus from nearby Cala Ratjada if you prefer.

Day Trip to the National Park of Cabrera

During the peak season even the quietest beaches and most secret bays in Mallorca become busy. Finding a space on the beach in Palma or any of the popular beach resorts can become difficult and the water becomes cloudy as hundreds of people stir up the sand.

Fabulous family beaches in Mallorca

Mallorca’s golden sandy beaches and turquoise waters are claimed to be some of the best in Spain. However, a day at the beach with children can often feel like a big operation. The last thing you want to do is hike down a rocky slope with a buggy, bucket and spade and several inflatables.

Boat Trip to Formentor Beach

Location
Capdepera

I drove down to see what Cala Ratjada was like as a friend had suggested I take a look. It is clear when you arrive that the town is another German stronghold on the island, with specials boards outside restaurants written almost exclusively in German, with the odd bit of Spanish and English.

Beach Bars in Mallorca

In addition to the smart beach clubs that Mallorca has to offer, there are a number of more relaxed beach bars where you can enjoy food and drink either right on the beach or right next door to the beach.

A Day Out at Port Alcudia Beach

The hot August sun is beating down on Mallorca and it is the perfect time to sit back, relax and give your skin the vitamin D it has been craving all year. This baking sun is an extraordinary 30-33 degrees at the moment and so a day at the beach with it's gentle breeze and gorgeous sea is the perfect way to stay cool.

A visit out west to Port d’Andratx and Sant Elm Beach

We left our lovely home town of Pollensa and set out for the west of the island. One of the great things about the island is that everywhere is so accessible, within 50 minutes we had traversed the island and arrived at Port d’Andratx for a leisurely walk along the sea front.

Port de Soller

Living near the sea in the Port of Soller, Majorca, has many advantages. Waking to the sight of the perfect horse shoe bay surrounded by mountains is still a thrill. The beach is coming to life with strategically placed tin bins which are used by the local bar owners to burn the bamboo.
