Calo des Moro: Mallorca's Most Photogenic Beach
Oh. My. Goodness. If you've ever seen those jaw-dropping photos of Mallorca on social media, chances are they were taken at Calo des Moro. This tiny slice of paradise is tucked between dramatic cliffs, with water so turquoise it looks photoshopped (spoiler alert: it's not!).
Photography Tip: The path down can be a bit tricky, so pack light but smart. We never leave our cameras behind and safely pack them in a Booe Waterproof Backpack – trust us, you're going to want to capture this view! Just remember to arrive early; this slice of heaven can get crowded during peak season.
Es Trenc: The Beach That'll Make You Think You're in the Caribbean
No kidding – when you first lay eyes on Es Trenc, you might think your flight took a wrong turn and landed in the Caribbean! We're talking 2 kilometers of powder-white sand and the kind of turquoise water that makes you want to quit your job and become a beach bum forever.
Playa de S'Amarador: Nature's Perfect Beach
If Mother Nature was showing off when she created beaches, S'Amarador was her masterpiece! This gorgeous natural beach is part of the Mondragó Natural Park, and wow, does it deliver:
- Soft, white sand that feels like walking on clouds
- Crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkeling
- Pine forests for shade (and that amazing Mediterranean scent!)
- Protected status means zero development – just pure beach bliss
Nature Lover's Tip: Pack eco-friendly sunscreen and plenty of water. There aren't many facilities here, but that's what makes it special!
Cala Varques: Your Secret Beach Adventure
Want to feel like you've discovered your own private paradise? Cala Varques is your spot! Fair warning: getting here involves a bit of a walk, but that's what keeps the crowds away and the magic alive. Think crystal-clear waters, dramatic limestone cliffs, and maybe even a few brave souls cliff jumping (not that we're suggesting you try it... but it sure is fun to watch!).
Playa de Muro: Where Beach Days Are Better Than Ever
Have kids? Or just want all the conveniences? Playa de Muro is your dream come true. Here's why you'll love it:
- Shallow waters that stay calm (perfect for the little ones!)
- All the facilities you could need (hello, proper bathrooms!)
- Tons of restaurants when hunger strikes
- Water sports for when you're feeling adventurous
Family Fun Tip: Pack a Booe 30L Waterproof Tote – it's like Mary Poppins' bag for the beach! Use it as a cooler for drinks and snacks, then as a beach bag for all your gear. When the kids inevitably jump in the water with all their clothes on (we've all been there), you'll have a dry spot for the spare outfits!
Sa Calobra: The Beach That Makes You Work For It
Okay, real talk – getting to Sa Calobra involves navigating one of the twistiest roads you've ever seen. But oh my goodness, is it worth it! The beach itself is tucked between massive cliffs, creating a scene that looks like something out of a movie.
Pro tip: come early to avoid the tour buses, and prepare for your jaw to drop!
