Platja Punta de ses Punxes

Description

Platja Punta de ses Punxes is a rocky cove on the coastline of the municipality of Llucmajor in the south of Mallorca.

Rock Rather Than Sand

This stretch of coast is predominantly rocky — flat slabs of rock invite you to lay your towel down, though this is by no means a classic sandy beach. The narrow strip of sand is correspondingly small. You reach the water via a set of steps with a handrail, and sturdy footwear is recommended for getting in and out of the sea.

Water & Snorkelling

The water here is a striking clear turquoise and deep blue, and fish can be spotted with the naked eye. Conditions are well suited to snorkelling and swimming. Sailing and fishing are permitted within certain restrictions.

Tranquillity & Character

The cove has no tourist facilities to speak of — there are no restaurants nearby. That, however, is precisely what makes it special: a quiet, unspoilt atmosphere well away from busier stretches of coastline. The cove is also known as Pas de ses Barques or Punta de ses Puntes.

How to Find It

The cove is located at Carrer de Deusto 7 in Llucmajor. It is easy to reach by car and parking nearby is available. The final section down to the water is on foot via the steps; bicycles will need to be left at the road. From here you also enjoy views across the Bay of Palma.
