Stranden in Pollença

Best Beaches and Coasts

Pollença’s coastline features a diverse range of Mediterranean environments, from the expansive sandy shores of Port de Pollença to the secluded pebble coves of the Formentor peninsula. The region is home to the four distinct inlets of Cala Sant Vicenç and the iconic Platja de Formentor, known for its fine white sand and pine-fringed backdrop. Many locations, such as Cala Bóquer and Cala Murta, require hiking through the Serra de Tramuntana foothills, offering access to clear waters and dramatic views of the Cavall Bernat ridge.
