Beach description
Fronts of several comfortable hotels, both cheap and expensive, are located near the beach. A whole alleyway of establishments where you can either have a simple snack or try some special cuisine is within walking distance from the beach. Important to note that you can get to the beach from any other place in Palma by public transport (bus).
The beach itself has an average size. It's 250 m long and 50 m wide. And it's never crowded, even during high season. The reason is that it's surrounded by sharp reef stones from both sides. So it'll be a perfect place for those who prefer calm vacations.
Due to this, the water always stays calm. And one can definitely say that swimmers will find the water here to be the cleanest around Palma. But even these conditions don't prevent surfers to wait for a perfect weather and waves to partake in their favorite activity on Cala Mayor. Those who like active leisure can also visit a boat rental store located to the east of the beach.
