Caló d'es Moro, Natural beach cove in Santanyí, Spain
The small white sand beach stretches for 30 meters along turquoise waters, enclosed by limestone cliffs covered with Mediterranean pines and vegetation.
This natural inlet on Mallorca's southeastern coast remained untouched until the late 20th century, when locals began using it for small-scale fishing activities.
Local residents maintain the beach's natural state through conservation efforts, preserving its status as an example of Mallorca's unspoiled coastal landscapes.
Visitors need to walk 400 meters on a steep path from the parking area in Sa Comuna to reach this secluded beach between Cala s'Almunia and Cala Llombards.
The combination of clear waters and underwater rock formations creates natural pools with varying depths, making it an excellent spot for observing marine life.

Spain's coastlines present a wide variety of beaches, from the white sand shores of the Balearic Islands to the rocky coves of Cantabria along the Atlantic. This collection includes beaches such as Playa de Rodas in the Cíes Islands, the urban beach of La Concha in San Sebastián, and the secluded coves of Formentera including Ses Illetes and Cala Saona. In Andalusia, beaches like Playa de Bolonia near Tarifa feature Roman ruins nearby, while the volcanic landscapes of Cabo de Gata showcase Los Genoveses and Playa de Monsul. The Asturian coast displays natural formations such as Gulpiyuri, a beach enclosed within cliffs, and Playa del Silencio. The Canary Islands offer diverse beach types, from the golden sands of Las Teresitas in Tenerife to the expansive shores of Sotavento in Fuerteventura. This selection documents the geographic and geological range of Spanish beaches and provides practical information about location, access, and local features of each site.
The Balearic Islands contain numerous remote beaches, historical sites, and natural landmarks. From the ancient Talayotic ruins of Torre d'en Galmés to the coastal cliffs of Cap de Formentor, these locations offer geological formations, archaeological remains, and marine vistas. The region includes natural reserves like S'Albufera des Grau, historical structures such as the Lluc Monastery, and coastal features including the rock formations at Sa Pedrera de Cala d'Hort.
Mallorca offers diverse landscapes where fine sandy beaches and wild coves surrounded by limestone cliffs succeed one another. On the northwest coast, Sa Calobra marks the spectacular mouth of the Torrent de Pareis, while Cala Figuera nestles between the rocky walls of Cape Formentor. To the southeast, near Santanyí, Caló del Moro and the Mondragó natural park reveal other facets of the Mediterranean coast. The island's architectural heritage reflects centuries of history. In Palma, the Gothic cathedral from the 14th century dominates the port with its nave standing 144 feet (44 meters) high and 61 stained glass windows. The round Bellver Castle, built in 1311, is perched on the heights of the city. The Drach Caves in Porto Cristo reveal an underground world spanning approximately 0.75 miles (1.2 km), including Lake Martel, one of Europe’s largest underground lakes. The Alfàbia Gardens in Sóller preserve Moorish hydraulic art from the 13th century, while the Roman site of Pol·lèntia in Alcúdia dates back to the 1st century BC. To the north, the s'Albufera natural park conserves 4,200 acres (1,700 hectares) of wetlands hosting over 250 species of migratory birds.
