Cala Pi Beach

Information

Cala Pi is a picturesque beach nestled between two cliffs, known for its stunning natural beauty. However, recent reviews reveal mixed experiences from visitors:

  • Positive Aspects: Many users highlight the breathtaking views and the turquoise waters, especially farther from the shore. The access via stairs is well-maintained, and there is ample parking nearby. The nearby restaurants and shops add to the charm of the area.
  • Negative Aspects: Unfortunately, several reviews mention that the beach often suffers from cleanliness issues, with concerns about murky water, debris, and unpleasant odors. Visitors recommend avoiding peak season due to overcrowding and suggest visiting early in the day for a more pleasant experience.

Despite its flaws, Cala Pi remains a beautiful spot worth visiting, especially for those who appreciate natural landscapes.

Fantastic experience: It's a really pretty beach. It does get very crowded though. For the best view, I'd absolutely recommend hiking up the steep staircase on the right hand side of the beach (behind the small hut). You'll get the best view of the entire bay with beautiful turquoise water and it'll be a lot less crowded there. Parking spaces are always available on the main road if you're willing to walk ~500m to the beach.

Fantastic experience: One of the most beautiful places I have ever swam. Like a stream in the gorge. Easily accessible. If you wish to explore the area I suggest hiking towards west - it's a 10 minute walk - and you'll find a hidden cove that is way more private and rocky. Superb views. Definitely worth the walk. Make sure you have hiking shoes.

Positive experience: The beach is in a very beautiful setting between rocky cliffs. We found free parking 300 meters from the beach after 5 minutes of searching. There are stairs leading to the beach, which is sandy with beautiful clear water. However, the beach and water are a bit dirty from tree bark and people. Nevertheless, it is worth seeing.

Positive experience: Great disappointment with this beach. According to recommendations and rankings, this beach is among the most beautiful in Mallorca, but I quickly sobered up. The water was muddy and dirty. Moreover, there was a constant smell of rotten eggs on the beach. The only nice thing was that you could take beautiful photos from the top of the beach.

Positive experience: Landschaftlich schöner Strand mit flach abfallendem Sandboden, der jedoch nur über eine längere Treppe beim Hotel Ona zugänglich ist. Die Ausrichtung der Cala sorgt dafür, dass es im Tagesverlauf kaum Schattenwurf gibt. Infrastruktur: Rettungsschwimmer während der Hochsaison, Abfallsammelstelle. Es gibt KEINE Umkleidekabine, Toilette, Dusche oder Sonnenschirme/Liegen. Das Parkplatzangebot ist ziemlich beschränkt. Zum offenen Meer hin steht ein Wachturm aus dem 17. Jahrhundert, welcher 2018 renoviert wurde.

Positive experience: Caletta molto carina, ma molto affollata, almeno a fine agosto, il che la rende un po'meno magica di come certamente sarà fuori stagione. Accesso vietato ai cani, tuttavia bastano i cristiani a renderla, se non una pattumiera, certamente non una perla incontaminata. Mozziconi sulla spiaggia, pezzi di plastica in acqua. Oggi era mezzo nuvolo e questo non aiutava a esaltare il colore verde dell'acqua.

Negative experience: Total disappointment, dirty, full of trash inside and outside the water, very murky water where you can't see the bottom, we cut a foot on a bottle in the sand in the water. Sand full of cigarette butts and trash, the access is fine but not adapted for reduced mobility. In the rocky area, there are sea nettles and one of our children got stung by them, and in the end, we left because of the pain the girl had. (This is nobody's fault, of course) But it's good for people to know so they can be careful in that area. Excessively crowded as you are stuck towel to towel with other people. The only good thing is that the views are nice.

Negative experience: The water is VERY murky! It's dirty... the sand is the same.. we had very high expectations because of the reviews but we didn't like it at all.. there are not even showers to clean your feet when you leave, it's very small and in the pictures, it looks much nicer than it actually is.

Negative experience: Very pretty but too many people day in day out, rubbish dropped on the sand. Water clarity changes daily. A real shame.

David Schwabauer 2 years ago

Positive experience: A beautiful cove that offers great swimming but also some drawbacks. First, the positives: - The nature around the cove is beautiful - Very calm water - Water is warm (like all over Mallorca) - If you swim further out, the water becomes incredibly clean and turquoise, beautiful. Negatives: - Except for early in the morning when there were almost no one in the sea, the first 50-100 meters are very murky. At the bottom of the sea, there are pine needles, which quickly makes the water murky. You have to swim as far out as possible to find very clean water. - Unfortunately, there are often jellyfish, some small and some very large - There are biting fish - Strangely, the sand on the beach is quite hard Conclusion: A very nice cove if you swim a bit further out and watch out for jellyfish. The nature (trees and rocks) is really very beautiful.

Fantastic experience: Small beach but with a typical beauty of the beaches in Palma de Mallorca, free parking available nearby. Beach services (lifeguard). Not too crowded to fill the sand, the access is impeccable and clean. The sand is full of what appears to be something that comes from the trees on the slopes of the beach, crystal clear blue water and excellent temperature. I recommend it to relax a bit and when you leave the beach there are many restaurants, markets, and cafes in the vicinity. Enjoy it was a nice surprise to have chosen this location to visit.

Positive experience: Nearby parking available. The water had quite a bit of algae, it looked like a swamp. But there has been a storm, and I suppose it will be normal. Maybe the cove is more enjoyable by boat from the sea. There is a section of stairs to access it, beware children, the return is tough. There are two shops and a couple of restaurants before going down to the sand.

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach! We were there in October and there were still quite many people, so it may be pretty packed in summer. The view are amazing from the beach and from the top. Be aware of many stairs to climb. The beach had no facilities like changing rooms or toilets. We had dinner in the restaurant just above the beach and the food was great, but long waiting time.

Joakim Vingren 4 years ago

Positive experience: A lota of seaweed mixed in the sand but a beautiful little beach. Protected from waves and winds. Popular by locals on sundays. No beach bar but there are some restaurants close by the beach 147 steps up the cliffside of Cala Pi.

Dan C 4 years ago

Positive experience: Arrived at 9am, plenty of parking. Captivating views from the cliff sides. 100+ steps down to the beach. The sea cove beach has turquoise water, and shade thrown on to the beach from the cliffs. As the day grew on, so did the number of people on the beach. Cala Pi offers local restaurants and markets for refreshments.

Positive experience: Due to recent storms, there was more debris and rubbish on the beach at the time than ever before. The Cala-Pi beach had plenty of hazardous pink jellyfish called Pelagia Noctiluca around the shore and seaside. These jellyfish are about 10cm long and transparent, with 16 long, thin tentacles that can cause pain, burning, nausea and muscle cramps. They are difficult to spot, especially at the time, in murky water after recent storms. In general, in Mallorca and the Mediterranean, it is normal. Yet, it's essential to be cautious if you are visiting and not gain a painful holiday gift. In case you're unfamiliar with the issue and these species, you can use an app, such as the MedusApp from the Google Play store, to know in advance of their presence, identify them and inform others for their safety.

Fantastic experience: Une crique magnifique à découvrir ! Accès facile par le bus et des escaliers vous permettront de descendre en toute sécurité. Attention il faut y aller tôt car la plage est vite pleine de touristes. De jolies et nombreux poissons sont présents mais il faut s'éloigner un peu du bord car le sable étant remué la visibilité y est réduite.

Javi CG 2 years ago

Positive experience: Preciosa, muy alargada, en forma de codo, en zona urbanizada. La arena estaba un tanto sucia por colillas y cáscaras. Tienen socorrista. Se aparca en la zona urbanizada No chiringuito, pero antes de bajar hay múltiples locales. Ayer había alerta de medusas. Merece la pena.

Rubén HM 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Bonita playa dentro de una maravillosa cala en Cala Pi, una zona residencial a 40 min de Palma. Dispones de parking cerca a la bajada de la cala, o si lo prefieres puedes aparcar por las inmediaciones de la zona residencial e ir andando (unos 10 min). Bajada a la playa por unas escaleras de piedra (fácil bajada, pero subirlas después de todo el día balándote cuesta ). Bonitas vistas, agua a buena temperatura, con torre de vigilancia y socorrista. Faltan servicios públicos y papeleras o contenedores en la playa. La verdad que es una playa que no desea dejar de visitar si viajas a Mallorca.

Florine Paillex 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: C’est vraiment à en couper le souffle. Le droit est beau et propre ! Bien que la plage soit hyper prisée. Attention au piqûre de méduses, mais les sauveteurs ont été aux petite soins.

Positive experience: Playa de Cala Pi has a picturesque setting with steep cliffs and a narrow stretch of beach, but it wasn’t the best experience. The water was green and a bit murky not as clear as other beaches on the island. While the surroundings are beautiful, there are definitely better options in Mallorca if you’re looking for crystal-clear water and a great swim.

El verdadero Viajero 2 years ago

Positive experience: Cala Pi. It is a secluded beach, formed by the mouth of a torrent. Located in a village that shares its name, Cala Pi. Its name 'Pi' (pine in Spanish) comes from the trees that surround the beautiful cove. Considered by many as the perfect beach, sheltered between two cliffs, with golden sand and turquoise blue waters. The cove is quite spacious (140m). The cliffs on both sides of the beach make it a safe place, protected from the winds. Let's get to the important part: The cove gets very crowded and the water often becomes murky, losing its beauty; it is not the best beach if you want to spend a quiet time. It also gets quite full of boats, making snorkeling difficult. There is plenty of parking near the path down to the cove, or if you prefer you can park around the residential area and walk; parking won’t be a problem. Access to the beach is via stone steps (8-10 minutes), which is complicated (easy to go down, but climbing back up is a bit tough; it does not have access for the disabled. There is a lifeguard station. There are no showers or public facilities, bins or containers on the beach. Even with the overcrowding, it is a must-visit cove in Mallorca.

Positive experience: Außen hui, innen pfui! Das trifft es - toller Spot zum Foto machen und wandern. Vll. außerhalb der Saison zum baden. Hier stinkt es zum Himmel und ist vermüllt. Es kommt immer wieder ein eckelhafter Geruch (Kanalysation) von den angrenzenden Hotels auf den Felsen. Das Wasser wird erst am Ausgang der Bucht sauber und klar. Auf der rechten Seite Richtung offenes Meer gut zum Schnorcheln.

Galeno Ge 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Der Sand selbst ist nicht so gut wie an anderen Stränden aber dafür der Ausblick auf eine schöne Bucht mit tollem Felsenhang. Für Schnorcheln geeignet. Deutlich weniger Touristen als an anderen Stränden. Die Restaurants in der Nähe sind nicht so beliebt. Vorher Rezensionen lesen.

Yulissa Martin 2 years ago

Positive experience: Muy accesible a través de unas escaleras. La arena era gruesa y las vistas un 10. Pero el agua dejaba mucho que desear estaba sucia y no se podía hacer snorkel ya que no se veía nada debido a la suciedad que había en la playa, hay muchas más calas mejores. Pero por ver estas vistas merece la pena visitarla.

Merce FM 3 years ago

Negative experience: Cala bonita pero abarrotada de gente en agosto Aguas sucias, muchísimos restos de algas y basura (plásticos), turbidez,para poder hacer snorkel es necesario adentrarse hacia la zona donde estàn los yates Es una cala "urbana", ubicada en una urbanización donde puedes aparcar en las calles y se baja a travès de unas escaleras En agosto cuenta con socorristas, están muy prrocupados por la seguridad y para que se cumplan las normas,un punto a favor En la zona de las casetas de pescadores se resbala mucho,cuidado a la hora de meterse en el agua

Fantastic experience: Cala spettacolare, soprattutto d'inverno quando non è popolata. Ogni volta ha dei colori diversi.. è magica! Sconsigliata in alta stagione per l'eccessiva densità di persone che la vivono. Difficile accesso per passeggini/bambini, impossibile per persone che utilizzano sedie a rotelle.

Positive experience: La cala está muy bien. Si llevas gafas de buceo puedes ver muchos peces. Eso sí, muy recomendado llevar escarpines. El suelo no es de arena sino de piedras, y no me refiero a piedras pequeñitas. Son bastante grandes y hacen daño al meterte al agua.

Jose Manuel Fernandez Herrero 5 years ago

Positive experience: La Caletta is really charming and the water is very beautiful. Since we went in August, there were a lot of people, but we still found a good spot on the beach. Clearly, at the shore the water was more turbid, but swimming just a little further out it becomes stunning. Climbing not many steps, there are a series of places to eat. We had a great lunch at Pepe's corner, managed by Italians.

Negative experience: Do not go there in the high season. The water is murky and dirty, and it is not appealing at all to swim. This is the problem with small coves. On larger beaches, the water is much more crystal clear. Big crush on Cala Mesquida in the North East.

Fantastic experience: My partner and I were there on a Monday at noon and there were still quite a few people, even though it was October. We really liked the beach, especially when you go away from the shore. You can go down some stairs and there is also a path full of vegetation to see the cove from above; the turquoise colors of the sea are beautiful. We parked without any problem on a street five minutes away. I recommend it for weekdays; on weekends, I get the impression that it gets quite crowded and it's not a beach with much space.

I loved it!!

Fantastic experience: Attractive in September, with a beautiful and challenging walk for those who want to combine a short trekking route of 1 hour, in the midst of nature: there are steep climbs, Mediterranean scrub, stunning landscapes and sea breeze.

Positive experience: Cala Pi. It is a secluded beach, formed by the mouth of a torrent. Located in a village that shares its name, Cala Pi. Its name 'Pi' (pine in Spanish) comes from the trees that surround the beautiful cove. Considered by many as the perfect beach, sheltered between two cliffs, with golden sand and turquoise blue waters. The cove is quite spacious (140m). The cliffs on both sides of the beach make it a safe place, protected from the winds. Let's get to the important part: The cove gets very crowded and the water often becomes murky, losing its beauty; it is not the best beach if you want to spend a quiet time. It also gets quite full of boats, making snorkeling difficult. There is plenty of parking near the path down to the cove, or if you prefer you can park around the residential area and walk; parking won’t be a problem. Access to the beach is via stone steps (8-10 minutes), which is complicated (easy to go down, but climbing back up is a bit tough; it does not have access for the disabled. There is a lifeguard station. There are no showers or public facilities, bins or containers on the beach. Even with the overcrowding, it is a must-visit cove in Mallorca.

Fantastic experience: Small cove, which is reached after going down the stairs. In August it is overcrowded and the water is a bit murky. But it is beautiful and I suppose that in the low season it will be quiet.

Positive experience: Nearby parking available. The water had quite a bit of algae, it looked like a swamp. But there has been a storm, and I suppose it will be normal. Maybe the cove is more enjoyable by boat from the sea. There is a section of stairs to access it, beware children, the return is tough. There are two shops and a couple of restaurants before going down to the sand.

Positive experience: We went with small children. The cove is beautiful, surrounded by rocks and pines which makes it lovely. Don’t expect to find crystal clear turquoise water because it is not. We went at 10:30 am and there were already quite a few people. There is plenty of parking area around that will require you to walk 5-10 minutes at most, then as you go down there is a junction of streets, the access to the beach is right at the beginning of the street on the right, you have to go down some cobblestone stairs, but it is well equipped with a handrail. Until about 12:30 pm, you can have shade from the same rocks.

Negative experience: There are many leaves on the bottom of the beach and it's unpleasant to get into the water. And on the beach, there are always many jellyfish, both large and small, that sting very painfully! This is very painful, especially for children. The blisters don’t go away for weeks! The consequences are in the photo. Choose other beaches, without jellyfish!

Positive experience: This is a beatiful beach, I would say easllily accesible but indeed there is something like a staircase, not difficult though. The beach is not very big. The sea water the day that we visited was not so clear or clean but it was very crowded.

Miguel Beja 2 years ago

Positive experience: It is very nice but the water wasn't clear the day we went. At the bottom in the water there are many seaweeds so if you don't like it you need to be always swimming

Positive experience: This beach is a go-to cool option if you are staying in Palma but want to see something more exotic: cliffs, crystal clear water, nature. The views are amazing but be aware that the beach itself isn’t equipped with umbrellas or sun beds which isn’t very comfortable for some people. Otherwise, you can take a walk around the cliffs and enjoy wonderful panoramic views.

Tim Grand 2 years ago

Positive experience: Nice Calo, but no the best on the island. I would say the 2nd beautiful Calo on the island of Palma de Mallorca (and I have visited a lot of them), after Calo des Moro (the most beautiful). The view is fabulous. But the water at the beginning is dirty and full of algae. You should swim 50m in order to get rid off algae. Nice beach with clean sand.

Fantastic experience: Very beautiful beach! We were there in October and there were still quite many people, so it may be pretty packed in summer. The view are amazing from the beach and from the top. Be aware of many stairs to climb. The beach had no facilities like changing rooms or toilets. We had dinner in the restaurant just above the beach and the food was great, but long waiting time.

Positive experience: A lota of seaweed mixed in the sand but a beautiful little beach. Protected from waves and winds. Popular by locals on sundays. No beach bar but there are some restaurants close by the beach 147 steps up the cliffside of Cala Pi.

John Nugent 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Tucked away in the south part of the island, Cala Pi is an easy 30 minute drive from the Palma airport if you have time to burn before your flight. And well worth it. It quickly became our favorite beach of Majorca. Though it’s a popular spot, you’ll have no issue finding space to lay out. And the water is not only the perfect warmth but has the most beautiful hints of clear blue and green. Enjoy!

Hugo Pimentel 4 years ago

Negative experience: Too many people in a really small beach the sand was also really dirty and mixed with dry beach debris. Lots of families mixed with groups of guys showing off and smoking pot. The area is also king of lame it's a spot full of hotels for people making holiday and nothing else not an organic place. It's the kind of please where you will not find any locals.

Positive experience: Arrived at 9am, plenty of parking. Captivating views from the cliff sides. 100+ steps down to the beach. The sea cove beach has turquoise water, and shade thrown on to the beach from the cliffs. As the day grew on, so did the number of people on the beach. Cala Pi offers local restaurants and markets for refreshments.

Flávia Fonseca 5 years ago

Positive experience: The beach is beautiful, water turquoise and clean. There're several restaurants and bars around. The bad aspect of this beach is that is not accessible, so if you need somewhere with accessibility, this unfortunately is not the place. Also, it's way to busy.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful little place for a swim work crustal clear water and some water activities available too in the summer. This time of year it was very quiet, can only imagine how busy it is in the summer.

TĀNË SEEDS 6 years ago

Negative experience: Very crowded and loud. The place could be paradise without humans. If people would really enjoy and be conscious i wouldn't mind having people around. But everybody putting toxic sunscreen on polluting the water and not picking up trash is not very mindful. It could be so simple. Respect other people's peace, so keep calm. Put a sunscreen on from Ringana or other natural products that dont pollute the ocean and the package is biodegradable. Or just avoid the strong sun sit in the shade. And of course pick up your trash.

Fantastic experience: Came to mallorca on a cruise with my wife, had a couple hours to spend on the island and spent them all here. Loved the small intimate beach environment and the (begrudged) ability to shower nearby at the hotel. Went up to the spur to the restaurant for lunch, which was more than we bargained for. All in all, time well spent and a memorable experience

Andrew van Leeuwen 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Playa de Cala Pi, A very lovely place to be and visit for sure! When I arrived it was mildly crowded That part was at the beach. This seems to be very liked among young families, so expect a lot of playing children! After we took some pictures we decided to have some drinks at the hotel that is located above the beach on a hill The prices were surley great and beyond our expectations, we double checked to see if they might forgot something but they did not! So that's why my rating is 5 stars, also because there was a friendly waitress who helped us! Good place to stay with kids!

Annie Månsson (Annie Månsson) 7 years ago

Positive experience: Beautiful scenery with steep cliffs surrounding the beach. Not a great deal of space though and not very deep water. Probably best suited for families with children. And for taking photographs.

Chris Paraskevopoulos 7 years ago

Positive experience: Pretty good beach overall in comparison to the numerous here on Mallorca. Sand everywhere, if that's your thing, with rocks really only by the ends of the beach. There's some cool photographic opportunities if you're so inclined and cool views from above the beach (parking is high up over the beach). Concerning parking, there isn't much, so be prepared to park far away and walk if you're visiting during high season. There's a cool Cabana on the beach too that sells various drinks on the spot (including alcoholic), and they also take food requests from their menu that they apparently deliver to you directly on the beach. Pretty cool... Although I'm unaware of the cost for that service. Lastly, there's a cool tower thing right nearby the main parking area that is cool to visit as well as look out at the ocean from. Great views. In this area you'll also find various restaurants and cafes if you'd like to sit for a coffee or a full meal. Worth a visit in my opinion, but if you're looking for a secluded beach away from the masses, this is not it.

Renoide 7 years ago

Positive experience: A good beach. It used to be a really beautiful place, but it's still a very special one anyways. The cove is quiet, with sand, and the water isn't deep until you go a few dozen meters in. The water itself has some rubbish. If you want a cleaner water then go for the deeper area. The sand and first meters of water usually have black algae, making it look dirtier than it actually is. Despite these details, the area is very pretty and I really recommend it for a relaxing afternoon.

Andres Bayertz 7 years ago

Positive experience: Beautiful but maybe a spot to visit rather in summer. Both sides of the cliff are definitely worth seeing. Ideally by bike because the parking lots are limited

Nan Shang 7 years ago

Positive experience: The beach itself is easily accessible without walking a long way or whatever coz there is a stair. However it's disappointing for ppl who prefer shades on the beach. The water is dead with trash bags floating around now and then. The beach is quite sandy though.

Positive experience: Beautiful beach, nice water but the water can be a bit cold. Be sure to have a drink at the shacks near the back of the beach.
