Cala sa Nau
Description
Cala sa Nau is a small rocky cove on Mallorca's south-east coast, framed by limestone cliffs and pine trees, with white sand and crystal-clear water.
The Cove
Cala sa Nau sits at the end of a narrow sea inlet stretching roughly 350 metres inland, giving it the feel of a miniature fjord. Low rocks draped with pine trees and Mediterranean scrub wrap around the sandy beach. The water is extraordinarily clear and turquoise — the cliffs on either side of the cove make for excellent snorkelling. Outside peak times, the bay is calm, sheltered, and wonderfully peaceful.
Beach Bar & Services
A chiringuito right on the beach serves fresh fish — including mussels, prawns, sea bream, and sea bass — alongside tapas and burgers. Sun loungers and parasols are available to hire on site. Showers and toilets are provided, and a lifeguard watches over the beach.
Location & Getting There
The cove lies within the municipality of Felanitx in the south-east of the island (postcode 07669). The access road is narrow and winding, with a car park waiting for you at the bottom.
A Note on Capacity
Cala sa Nau is a small cove with limited space for swimmers and sunbathers. It fills up quickly in high season and the beach can get very cosy indeed. If you're after a quiet spot, arriving early is well worth it.
