Sa Canova

Sa Canova is a coastal beach in Artà with fine sand interspersed with shell fragments, stretching along a defined section of shoreline between two natural boundaries. The shore features a gentle slope toward deeper water and maintains its natural composition without man-made alterations.

This location received official protected status in 1991 due to archaeological discoveries made on the site. The designation marked the beginning of formal conservation measures for the area.

The beach holds meaning for local residents who value its untouched coastal character and pass down knowledge about its natural features through generations. People here take pride in maintaining this place as it has existed for a long time.

You can reach this beach by driving on a forest road that leads to a free parking area, then walking a few minutes through natural surroundings. The lack of facilities on-site means you should bring water and wear comfortable shoes for the walk.

At the mouth of a stream where it meets the coast, a wetland area provides habitat for rare native bird species and attracts migratory birds. This zone is part of the protected area and can be observed from the beach itself.
