Cala Anguila

Cala Anguila is a small cove on the eastern coast of Mallorca near Manacor, surrounded by rocky cliffs and characterized by calm, clear water. The sandy beach is ideal for swimming and sunbathing, with shallow areas that suit beginners and families with children.

The area has been inhabited since ancient times, with archaeological traces pointing to early settlements in the region. Over centuries of Mediterranean maritime activity, this coastline became an important hub for local fishing communities and trade routes.

The fishing tradition shapes life in this coastal area, with local communities still maintaining their maritime connections. Visitors can watch fishermen prepare their boats and nets along the shore, seeing daily routines that have changed little over generations.

The beach is best visited in early morning or late afternoon hours when it is less crowded and sunlight is gentler. Bring comfortable walking shoes since access involves a short rocky path, and pack plenty of drinking water on hot days.

The cove contains several natural caves within the cliffs that are accessible by snorkeling, hosting marine life like octopuses and colorful fish. These underground chambers formed through thousands of years of wave erosion and offer a rare view of underwater life specific to this region.
