Muro, White sand beach in Muro, Majorca, Spain
Muro is a white sand beach stretching 4,200 meters along Majorca's coast, 70 meters wide at the Mediterranean. Its four sectors include a dune area with native pines and junipers, and developed sections with umbrellas and sunbeds.
This shore evolved from a small fishing village into a recreation area during Majorca's tourism growth in the 1900s. The shift shaped how people use and value this coastal space today.
At the Platja de Muro, the four sectors are locally known as sectors 1 to 4, and the dunes behind the sand belong to the Àrea Natural d'Especial Interès. Chiringuitos along the shore serve Majorcan dishes such as arròs brut and ensaimada, and the beach is a stop on the S'Albufera wetland birdwatching route.
The shore has marked areas with umbrellas and sunbeds, plus shower facilities, restrooms, and lifeguards stationed throughout. Easy access points from the waterfront path help visitors reach the sand from different spots.
The shore divides into four different sectors, including one section with natural sand dunes and native Mediterranean pines and junipers. These plants create natural boundaries between different beach areas.
