Platges de Canyamel
Description
Platges de Canyamel is a sandy beach in the north-east of Mallorca, offering crystal-clear water, pine shade and a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere.
Water, Sand and Rock
The beach blends a sandy stretch with rocky sections close to the shoreline. The water is crystal clear and clean — schools of fish and a variety of marine life gather around the rocks, making this a rewarding spot for snorkelling. The beach itself is well maintained, with fine-grained sand throughout.
Atmosphere and Surroundings
Canyamel never feels overcrowded and has a genuinely laid-back character. Green hills frame the bay and create a picturesque backdrop, while scattered pine trees provide natural shade. The beach is well suited to families: the water shelves gently, so you can wade out a good distance without it getting deep quickly.
Facilities
Two beach bars and restaurants sit right on the beach, alongside clean toilet facilities. Sun loungers and parasols are available to hire, and a lifeguard is on duty.
Location and Getting There
The beach is located in the Canyamel district (postcode 07589) in the north-east of the island. Street parking can be found on the surrounding roads, though spaces become harder to come by during the peak summer months. The Coves d'Artà are roughly a ten-to-fifteen-minute walk away, with the path offering sweeping views across the entire bay.
