Calo Des Mort beach

The narrow sandy strip of this wild beach is gracefully curved in the form of a crescent and protected from the winds by picturesque cliffs. Crystal-clear waters gently wash the soft shores. The shallow and soft sandy bottom of the bay seems to be created for carefree swimming.

Two wooden huts, used by fishermen to store their gear, give the beach landscape its own unique identity. From each hut, handmade scaffolding descends to the sea, facilitating the launch of small boats. Holidaymakers can also participate in fishing or boat trips along the coast.

The only challenge for tourists is the small size of this paradise corner, which becomes even less accessible during high tide. Therefore, visitors to Calo Des Mort prefer to spend time there in the early morning hours and refrain from visiting this beach during the high season. Among them, many nudists choose to relax in the secluded areas of Formentera, far from the eyes of onlookers. Those who wish to stay here for a few days can find accommodation at a hotel within walking distance of the sea.

When is the best time to visit?

Formentera, the smallest of Spain's Balearic Islands, is a serene beach paradise, best enjoyed during specific times of the year. To make the most of its pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters, timing your visit is key.

The ideal time to visit Formentera for a beach vacation is between late May and early October. During these months, the weather is warm and sunny, perfect for beach activities and swimming.

• Late May to June: This period is excellent for visitors looking to enjoy the tranquility of the island before the high season crowds. The sea temperature is pleasant, and the island's natural beauty is in full bloom.
• July to August: These are the busiest months, attracting tourists with its peak summer temperatures and vibrant nightlife. If you don't mind the crowds, this is the time to experience Formentera at its most lively.
• September to early October: The island begins to quiet down, but the weather remains warm enough for beach-going. This is a great time for those seeking a more peaceful beach experience.

To avoid the cooler, more unpredictable weather, it's best to steer clear of the off-season months from November to April. Whenever you choose to visit, Formentera's beaches are sure to be a highlight of your trip.
