Cala Mondragó, Protected beach and calanque in southeastern Mallorca, Spain
Cala Mondragó is a protected beach with two sandy coves divided by limestone cliffs and surrounded by calm waters. The site includes a large natural park with pine forests and coastal landscape connecting the two beaches.
The area became a protected natural park in 1992 when regional authorities moved to prevent construction and development. This decision safeguarded the coastline and allowed the landscape to remain undisturbed.
The name comes from Mondragó, a historical figure from the region, and today the place draws visitors who value nature and outdoor life. The way people spend time here shows how the landscape connects locals and travelers to the surrounding wild areas.
The site has two parking areas at the entrance with short walks to the beaches, and several restaurants serving local food. Visitors can rent sun loungers and umbrellas, and should expect busy conditions during summer months.
The wetland area of Source D'en Alis holds a diverse ecosystem where eels and water species thrive in their natural setting. This hidden zone often goes unnoticed by visitors but reveals important aspects of the park's ecology.
