Caló des Parral

Caló des Parral is a narrow beach on the coast of Artà, about 10 meters wide and about 130 meters long. The shore consists of pale sand mixed with pebbles and is bordered by low coastal vegetation.

This cove served as an anchorage for fishing boats since medieval times and kept this role for centuries. The area never developed into a large harbor but remained a simple landing spot for small vessels.

The name comes from the small fishing boats traditionally moored here by local families. Visitors can still see simple structures that reflect the place's deep connection to maritime work.

There are no beach bars or showers here, so visitors should bring water and snacks. A short walk from the nearest parking area leads to the beach, and comfortable shoes are recommended.

The cove is small enough to feel almost deserted on less busy days, giving visitors a sense of private discovery. This quiet character makes it a peaceful place away from the larger tourist beaches in the area.
