Description

Cala Morlanda is a small, rocky natural cove on Mallorca, close to S'Illot on the island's east coast.

Water, Rocks and Underwater Life

The water at Cala Morlanda is crystal clear and a stunning turquoise blue. The cove is well regarded as a snorkelling spot, with an impressive underwater world to explore: fish, rocky seabeds and sea caves all make it well worth slipping below the surface. If you're confident in deeper water, you can dive through a sea cave. Cliff jumping is also possible here. The sheltered position of the cove keeps the water calm and inviting.

Rocky Access Rather Than Sandy Beach

There is no sandy beach here — you reach the water via rocks and stone steps, and there are also stones and sharp rocks close to the shore in the water itself. Water shoes are strongly recommended. The cove is small and doesn't accommodate large numbers of people at once, so if you're after peace and quiet and don't mind the rocky character, you'll find a natural, unspoilt cala well away from the busier beaches.

Cala Morlanda sits near S'Illot on the east coast of Mallorca. It's easy to reach by bike or by car. Parking is available on the surrounding residential streets, just a few minutes' walk from the cove.
