About

Cala Figuera is located on the Balearic Sea and it is in the 105th place out of 382 beaches in the Balearic Islands region 61.7 km away from its center, the city of Palma. It is one of the beaches of Port de Pollenca settlement, just 9.1 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place with very picturesque views, among the mountains, surrounded by the cliffs.

It is a tiny bay with crystal blue water and gray pebble, so it is recommended to wear special shoes. The entrance to the water is very smooth. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers etc. It is partially crowded during the high season.

Cala Figuera 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.

Getting to the beach is quite simple: just take a short walk along the trail. Parking is located at some distance, within 300 meters.

4 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Platja de Formentor, which has a rating of 8.7.

Cala Figuera (Balearic Islands) is located outside the Port de Pollenca 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 Figuera 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.

An absolutely stunning beach that is accessible to the young, the fit, or the daring. There is a parking lot (pretty rough in spots) with a great overlook even if you don't plan on heading down the path to the beach. The walk is maybe half a mile and a healthy downhill/uphill on natural paths (no railing anywhere).

Lovely place! The water is insane, highly recommended! You'll find a few goats hanging around, watch your food! It takes 10/15 minutes to get there, be careful the path is quite steep and better to wear trainers. There are quite a lot of small jellyfish.

Precious Cala especially the walk down to it. Rocky beach, clear water and great views. There are a few small jellyfish here so better look before you dive into the beautiful water. Lot of fish too so making it a great snorkel place. Some goats near the beach as well so be careful with food because if they smell it they will try to steal it!

It barely would be easy to swim because of the stones, but overall possible. Beautiful view and water colour. There are 2 ways to go to the beach, we tried both. A lot of jellyfish there :) Recommended to visit

Amazing beach! The path to hike isn’t very clearly marked, but if you cross the street when you get off the bus and just start heading down the hill, you’ll find your way down. It’s about a 15 min hike to get down (longer if you’re not in the appropriate footwear) with little shade so be sure to bring enough water. The beach itself is rocky but the stones are smooth enough to lay out on. The goats are very friendly and will definitely rob you if you leave your food out! The water was gorgeous but be careful of the jellyfish- everyone in our group got stung at least once!

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Cala Figuera (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 Figuera (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 Figuera 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.
