Platja de Santanyí
Description
Platja de Santanyí is a sandy beach nestled in the small cove of Cala Santanyí, in the south-east of Mallorca.
Water and Beach
The crystal-clear, turquoise water and fine, pale sand make this cove one of the most striking beach settings in the south-east of the island. The entry into the water is shallow and gentle, which suits less confident swimmers perfectly. Venture a little further out and you'll find great conditions for snorkelling. The cove is framed by rocky cliffs that give it the distinctive character of a classic Mallorcan caló.
Facilities and On-Site Offer
Bars, restaurants and food stalls are available right at the beach and in the immediate surroundings. Sun loungers and parasols are available to hire. Toilets are on site, though the showers have been known to be unreliable. A lifeguard service is in place. Beach volleyball courts are also part of the setup. A Spar supermarket is reachable via a short flight of steps.
Location and Getting There
The beach sits on Carrer sa Costa d'en Nofre in Cala Santanyí. The approach leads to a free car park right next to the beach; it's popular and fills up quickly during high summer, so arriving early gives you the best chance of a space. A bus stop is located right beside the beach.
When to Visit
The cove is small and draws a good crowd during peak season. If you're after a bit of peace and quiet, the morning is your best bet — by midday the beach fills up noticeably. Even as early as March the cove can already be pleasantly busy.
