Fantastic experience: Si quieres ver una preciosa puesta de sol en Palma puedes disfrutarla,paseando por el paseo de pórtixol.En invierno a partir de las 17.45 se inicia.Puedes ver un pequeño puerto con un faro y zona para subir mediante escaleras y barandilla. Si lo rodeas y vas por la zona de carretera rodeando el puerto puedes también tener buenas vistas con el puerto,barquitos y puesta de sol detrás.

Positive experience: I love this area. A stones throw from Palma but beautiful, peaceful and calming. You can take a long walk along the sea front on a lovely flat pathway from can pastilla to Palma. Lots of little bars and cafes along the way for a pit stop or two.

Fantastic experience: Muy cerca de Palma, con aparcamiento y ducha. Una zona de la playa es más de arena y la otra de piedrecitas. Agua limpia y en calma

Fantastic experience: Podría estar un poco más limpia el agua, otros años lo estaba pero en general me gusta mucho esta playa. La arena sobretodo es genial, no es de la finita que se pega por todo

Positive experience: Playa cerca de la bahía de Palma, con multitud de restaurantes y locales de copas. En verano atiborrado de gente, y el agua suele estar bastante sucia por materias fecales pero para pasear es bonita. Yo no me bañaria allí.

Negative experience: We went to spend the day at this beach because it was a SMOKE-FREE beach, which is not the case, as there were people smoking. Many people complained and the lifeguard was notified, but he didn’t care and didn’t even bother to go down and say something to those who were smoking, a guy with big glasses who seemed to be Argentine based on his accent. I believe that as someone who takes care of people and beaches, he should have kindly asked that NO SMOKING be allowed on a SMOKE-FREE beach. But the guy was very comfortable chatting with his colleague.

Fantastic experience: I don't want to say how wonderful it is, because only those from the area get to enjoy it. Now I can barely place my towel, it's a shame that so many people know about it. And that the area is half populated with tourists. But that's what happens with the good stuff, everyone wants to enjoy it...

Positive experience: Great sea front walk - back looks safe for children with small protected bays to swim in. Water clean. Plenty of places to eat and drink.

Fantastic experience: Even tho it’s in between two marinas, it still feel secluded and that the water is relatively fresh despite it being so close to Palma port. … perfect to ride bikes to, has several restaurant behind the strip and a shower to rinse off the salt of the med. Eroski just a couple of blocks away to get snacks or a cold drink … pretty packed in peak summer month and still worth the bundling up to enjoy in the autumn. … pick up some plastic while you are there to help keep this local treasure clean

Fantastic experience: Great little town beach. Much better for swimming than the main Palma beach or Cuitat Jardi. Lots of great bars, restaurants and cafes just behind the beach. No traffic
