Caló del Moro

1 of 3

Calo des Moro is a tiny place in the southeast corner of Mallorca, 6 kilometers from Santanyi. It might be difficult to access the beach. Residents have put up signs indicating that the road is private, but that it is feasible to drive all the way to the beach. Calo des Moro is a stunning beach nestled deep within a bay surrounded by steep rocks. 

Although it is a little beach, the 40 meters of sand are fine-grained and brilliant. The water is incredibly pure and has stunning turquoise colors. Between the towering cliffs, it's ideal for a swim. 

After you've parked your car, you'll have to walk a few hundred meters. On the route, you'll pass the Cala s'Almunia beach, although Calo des Moro is the most attractive of the two. 

The beach has been referred to as a "hidden tip" for many years. It is no longer the case, thus coming early in the day in July and August is a smart idea. Try to avoid visiting the beach on weekends, when many residents do.
