Description

Platja de Son Real is a secluded natural beach on Mallorca's north-east coast, situated in Son Real within the municipality of Santa Margalida.

Rocky Coastline & Natural Beach

Platja de Son Real stretches as an undeveloped coastal strip between Playa Son Baulo and Son Serra de Marina. The shoreline is rocky, with striking wave-sculpted rock formations, and the water along the western section is particularly stony — so water shoes are strongly recommended. Seaweed can make swimming tricky depending on conditions, though on those days the beach makes for a wonderful coastal walk.

History & Surroundings

The area around Son Real carries real archaeological weight: a necropolis on the grounds of the Finca Pública de Son Real gives the spot a fascinating historical dimension, well worth combining with a beach visit. The finca sits on the road between Can Picafort and Artà.

Getting There

The beach is reached entirely on foot — either as a longer coastal walk from Can Picafort, or directly from the Finca de Son Real. Another handy starting point is the Aparcament de Son Serra car park, from which you head westwards to reach Platja de Son Real.
