Getting there
Free parking around the resort; regular resort buses from Ciutadella. The beach is small and fills quickly in July and August.
Where to eat nearby
- La Marina — Waterside restaurant at the marina, praised by guides for its seafood and service
- Marina restaurants — Paella, arroz caldoso (soupy fish rice) and peppers stuffed with cod are common orders around the harbour
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
- Evenings at the marina bring live music and open-air bars.
- Boat trips along the south coast coves leave from the harbour.
Worth combining
- Son Xoriguer beach is next door.
- Cap d’Artrutx lighthouse for sunset, about 20 minutes on foot.

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.
