Description

Platja de Cans is a dog-friendly beach in the north of Mallorca, situated in Pollença, with a dedicated family area right alongside it.

A beach for dogs and families

Platja de Cans offers two clearly separated areas: a dog-friendly section where dogs are welcome to splash about in the water, and a family area with a sandy beach. The water is shallow and shelves very gradually — perfect for children and anyone who prefers a gentle paddle. The beach sits in a bay with views over the marina, the surrounding hills, and the rocky coastline of the island's north-east.

Shade, picnic tables, and pine trees

Pine trees line the beach and provide reliable shade throughout the day. Several picnic tables and benches make it easy to settle in for a long, comfortable visit. Bins stocked with dog waste bags are available for owners, and water shoes are recommended in the dog section, where the ground is stony.

Nearby restaurants, bars, and promenade

Restaurants, bars, and shops are all within easy reach of the beach. The bay has a relaxed, unhurried feel that draws families and those looking for a peaceful day out.

Location and getting there

Platja de Cans is located at Via Alemanya 2 in Pollença (07470). An accessible car park is available on site, and parking in the surrounding area is generally easy to find outside peak season.
