Beach description
The picturesque canyon that surrounds Sa Calobra Beach can be reached via a single road. The winding path along the serpentine is a historical heritage, as it was laid to this port village in the middle of the last century. Driving through it is an attraction in itself, whether vacationers choose to travel by car or bus.
However, those who prefer to step back from adrenaline-fueled entertainment can opt for a more tranquil approach - by sea. Boats arrive at the beach several times a day during the high season, offering a serene alternative. Visitors to this unique locale will have the opportunity to explore two beaches with fantastic views. The first is a narrow 30-meter stretch, strewn with pebbles. To reach the second, one must walk approximately a kilometer along a narrow path. After passing through a distinctive tunnel, access is granted to a 100-meter expanse, perfect for basking under the sun in an unforgettable setting.
These beaches are an ideal choice for those looking to spend the day unwinding. There are no windsurfers, and the area designated for bathers is clearly demarcated from the paths of passing yachts by buoys. Strong waves only occur with certain wind directions. Moreover, the absence of noisy parties makes this the perfect place to witness the sunset with a loved one, accompanied by the soothing sounds of the sea.
When is the best time to visit?
The best time to visit Mallorca for a beach vacation is typically during the late spring to early autumn months, when the weather is warm and sunny. Here's a breakdown of the optimal periods:
- Late Spring (May to June): This is an ideal time to enjoy the beaches with fewer crowds and pleasant temperatures. The sea might still be a bit cool for swimming, but the weather is perfect for sunbathing and exploring.
- Summer (July to August): These are the hottest months, perfect for beachgoers looking to spend most of their time in the water. However, be prepared for the peak tourist season, which means more crowded beaches and higher prices.
- Early Autumn (September to October): The temperatures remain warm, but the crowds start to thin out, making it a great time for those seeking a more relaxed beach experience. The water is also still warm enough for swimming and water sports.
Regardless of the time you choose, Mallorca's stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and Mediterranean charm make it a fantastic beach vacation destination.
