About

Cala Carbo is located on the Balearic Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 359th place out of 382 beaches in the Balearic Islands region 52.4 km away from its center, the city of Palma. It is one of the beaches of el Vilar settlement, just 1.9 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place.

It is a tiny bay with crystal turquoise water and rocks cover, so it is highly recommended to wear special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Cala Carbo coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

This beach is easily accessible, it is located very close to road. Parking is located directly on the beach.

5 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Pollenca Beach, which has a rating of 8.5.

Cala Carbo (Balearic Islands) is located outside the el Vilar settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Majorca and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Cala Carbo with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

The sea was quite the sight - so rough that no one dared venture in! The wind blew fiercely from the north, providing a chill to the air. Despite the lack of beachgoers, the bar was bustling with life. The friendly staff provided light snacks and drinks for the few who had braved the elements.

The sea at Cala is beautiful, but the service for sun beds leaves much to be desired. It's ridiculous that they chain them up, so you can't sit down. After waiting for half an hour, there was still no assistance. The hotel said the beach bar could help, but the beach bar said the hotel could help. Poor customer service, completely useless.

I had a wonderful experience at the beach. After foolishly taking my wallet into the water with me, the lifeguards noticed and asked if I had lost something. I was so relieved to discover that all of my belongings were still intact. Not only was the beach stunning, the locals were incredibly kind and helpful. I am so grateful to have had such a positive experience.

We recently visited the beach and were amazed by the beauty of the ocean and the soft sand. The water was so clear and inviting that we couldn't resist taking a dip. It was truly an incredible experience!

This secluded beach with its crystal-clear waters and joyful vibe is worth the effort! Although the access is a bit tricky, you can park your car just a few steps away from the beach. The ground isn't sandy like the other beach nearby, but the water is truly exceptional.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Cala Carbo (Majorca) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Cala Carbo (Majorca) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Cala Carbo for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
