Platja de Canyamel, Blue Flag beach in Capdepera, Spain
Platja de Canyamel is a broad sandy beach with white sand and clear water that stretches along the shoreline and is backed by mountains. The gently sloping seafloor and open layout make it an accessible spot for swimming and relaxation.
The region was once known for sugarcane and honey production, activities that gave the place its name and held economic importance for centuries. As these industries declined, the coastline was later developed for tourism.
The beach sits near Canyamel, a location named after the region's former sugarcane and honey production that shaped local life. This agricultural heritage remains woven into how residents connect with and understand their surroundings.
The water here is typically calm and accessibility is good, with showers, restrooms, and parking nearby. You can rent sunbeds and find cafes if you need refreshments.
A small river called Torrente Canyamel flows through the area and reaches the sea at the left side of the beach, creating a natural freshwater meeting point. This waterway forms a subtle boundary between stream and sea that visitors can observe.
