A deep inlet between high cliffs, with a broad sandy beach at the bottom and the resort on top. Calm water and shallow sand suit families.

## Getting there

Parking in the resort, then steps or the road down to the sand. Regular buses from Maó.

## Where to eat nearby

- Cova d’en Xoroi: Bar and club in a cliff-face cave with terraces over the sea, famous for sunset drinks. There is an entry fee that has included a first drink; check current opening before going

Restaurants and opening hours change by season; check before you go.

## Good to know

- Several restaurants and bars line the clifftop above the beach.

## Worth combining

- Cales Coves and its prehistoric burial caves, reachable on foot via the coast (a loop with Es Canutells is about 11 km).
