Cala Rafax

Cala Rafax is a hiking area and natural spot within the municipality of Andratx in Mallorca, perfect for both walking and swimming.

Hiking & Getting There

There are two ways to reach Cala Rafax: those who prefer a gentler approach can take the forest track. More adventurous visitors can set off from the beach at Camp de Mar, walk as far as a watchtower, and then descend from there — a stretch that requires a steady footing and takes around an hour.

At the Water
