Caló d'es Moro, Natural beach cove in Santanyí, Spain
Caló d'es Moro is a small cove on Mallorca's southeastern coast with white sand stretching about 30 meters, ringed by limestone cliffs covered with Mediterranean pines and vegetation. The beach sits between two larger coves and slopes gently toward turquoise water that remains unusually clear year-round.
This natural inlet on Mallorca's southeastern coast remained largely unchanged until the late twentieth century, when locals began small-scale fishing activities there. The lack of commercial development since then has kept its appearance essentially the same, distinguishing it from many other beaches in the region.
Local residents have maintained this beach in its natural state, making it an example of Mallorca's unspoiled coastal areas that travelers can experience today. The absence of commercial development reflects how the community values preserving the landscape as it has been for generations.
The path to the beach starts from a parking area in Sa Comuna and takes about 400 meters on a steep trail that requires sturdy footwear. Weather on this southeastern coast is typically sunny and windy, so bring sun protection and be prepared for wind conditions that can change quickly.
The underwater rock formations create natural pools of varying depths where visitors can spot marine life without needing to dive deep. These shallow rocky areas make snorkeling and watching fish from shallow water particularly rewarding for those exploring the water's edge.
