Description

Es Pontàs is a natural limestone arch rising from the sea just off the south-eastern coast of Mallorca, within the municipality of Santanyí.

A natural wonder off the coast

The arch rises around 20 metres above sea level and can only be reached by boat or by swimming out to it. From land, the Mirador Es Pontàs provides a viewing platform from which you can take in the full spectacle. The crystal-clear turquoise water surrounding the arch is as much a part of the scene as the rugged rocky coastline that frames it.

Sunsets and a stunning photo spot

The arch is particularly striking in the evening hours — the viewpoint is a remarkable spot to watch the sun go down over the sea. If you bring a camera, you'll find a truly extraordinary subject waiting for you.

Location & getting there

The mirador sits between Cala Santanyí and Cala Llombards. Free parking is available along the road in front of the viewpoint, and the walk from there to the platform takes around five to ten minutes on foot.

Access considerations

The path to the viewpoint is not wheelchair accessible — the ascent involves sections of steep and uneven rock that require sure footing, making it challenging for people with limited mobility and for young children.
