Description

Playa El Toro is a sheltered sandy cove on the south-west coast of Mallorca, tucked right alongside the marina at Port Adriano.

A tranquil bay with crystal-clear water

The cove sits in a naturally sheltered inlet that keeps the water remarkably calm — barely a ripple, fine sand underfoot, and crystal-clear visibility that makes spotting fish effortless. That combination makes snorkelling here particularly rewarding. Outside the peak summer months, the atmosphere is quiet and wonderfully laid-back.

Families and young children

The gently shelving, wave-free water is well suited to families with young children. The compact size of the cove also makes it easy to keep an eye on little ones at all times.

Port Adriano and the surrounding area

The marina at Port Adriano sits right next to Playa El Toro, is open to visitors, and can be seen clearly from the beach. Along the shoreside there are restaurants with a smart, upmarket feel. Visitors also highlight the stunning sunset views out over the sea.

Finding the cove

Playa El Toro is located on Carrer Platja, 07180, in the south-west of Mallorca. The village of El Toro sits within the municipality of Calvià, close to Santa Ponça. At weekends and during the height of summer, the car park fills up quickly, so it's worth arriving early.
