When to go
The beach-day index peaks in June–August; July scores 9.6/10 with highs of 29 °C, sea at 24.7 °C and 11 mm of rain.
In July that is 1.1 points above the median of the 2,246 beaches in Spain covered by this atlas.
At its warmest the water here is 3.0 °C warmer than the Spain median for August (23.2 °C).
Across the year the sea averages 19.4 °C, warmer than 59% of the coastal beaches in the atlas.
November is the wettest month (83 mm) and July the driest (11 mm); the yearly total is about 540 mm.
Daylight runs from 9.4 hours in December to 14.9 hours in June; in mid-July the sun rises at 06:32 and sets at 21:14 local time.
Orientation, sun and shore
The shore faces west-south-west (240°). Open water fills about 47% of the horizon close by, which makes it an open stretch of shore.
The sun sets over the sea in every month; in mid-June it goes down at 21:15 local time on a bearing of 302°.
Straight out to the west-south-west there is open water for more than 2,000 km, so the beach is exposed to long ocean swell. The beach is on Mallorca, an island of about 3,658 km².
About 1 km offshore the sea is roughly 16 m deep and 30 m at 3 km. Behind the beach the ground is about 5 m above sea level 500 m inland and 0 m at 1.5 km, a flat coastal plain.
Within 1 km, the land is 56% tree cover, 30% grassland and 8% bare ground, sand or rock (satellite land-cover map, 2021): a largely natural setting. Water makes up 61% of that circle.
