Getting there
About 10 minutes on foot from the western end of Sant Tomàs, starting by Es Bruc.
Where to eat nearby
- Es Bruc (Sant Tomàs) — The nearest bar-restaurant, at the start of the path; buy food and drink there before walking over
Restaurants, menus and opening hours change from season to season; many close in winter. Check before you go and book in summer.
Good to know
- No services on the beach itself.
Worth combining
- Cova des Coloms, a huge cave known as “the Cathedral”, about 30 minutes inland through the Binigaus ravine.
- Cala Escorxada further west on the Camí de Cavalls.

Wind & shelter
The catalogue records this beach as opening towards S. Wind coming from that direction can drive waves towards the shore; wind from the opposite direction may give more shelter near the sand. Headlands, terrain and offshore swell can change the result.
During northerly Tramuntana, south-coast coves may offer more shelter. Southerly winds can bring waves into these beaches; compare the forecast rather than relying on the coast alone.
