8 Very good

That place is a tranquil haven for dog-walkers, boasting stunning views of a small lighthouse island. Unfortunately, there are patches of stinky seagrass, but if you're looking for some peace and quiet, this is the perfect spot. Plus, it is easily accessible. All in all, it's a great place to visit, but once you've seen it, there's no need to go back again.

Beautiful, with clean and shallow water and stunning views. It's only a short walk away from the parking lot, and there are trash cans in the area so it's easy to keep the beach clean. Plus, the beach is covered in gray pebbles, so just remember to leave your footsteps behind.

This location may not have sand, but it's got something better - the locals! It's the perfect spot to relax and soak up the sun, and there's plenty of parking nearby. Who needs sand when you've got locals, right?

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Platja d'Alcanada (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 Platja d'Alcanada (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 Platja d'Alcanada 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.
