Cala Vientre
Description
Cala Vientre is a rocky cove in the municipality of Santanyí in the south-east of Mallorca, reached via a short but steep footpath.
Rock, Water, Stillness
Don't come looking for sand at Cala Vientre — the cove is made up entirely of rock. What makes it special is the turquoise, crystal-clear water, which is particularly inviting for snorkelling: fish are easy to spot, and the natural rock formations continue beneath the surface. Outside the peak summer period, the atmosphere is wonderfully calm and peaceful.
Getting There
The cove sits within the municipality of Santanyí (07690). From the car park further up, a signposted path leads down to the cala. The descent to the water is short but steep; the terrain is rocky and can be slippery in places, so sturdy footwear is strongly recommended. From above, you're rewarded with lovely views across the surrounding coves.
Things to Know Before You Visit
Entry into the water is via rocks and requires some care — water shoes are a good idea. Space within the cove is limited. Children who aren't confident climbers may find the access tricky.
