Diana Pons - 9/12/16

Podemos asegurar mil veces que las calas de Mallorca son las más bonitas del mundo. Sin embargo, lo mejor es que uno lo compruebe por sí mismo. Aunque podríamos hacer una lista interminable, nosotros te lo ponemos fácil y hacemos una selección de las 10 mejores calas de Mallorca, haciendo una ruta por diferentes zonas de la isla. Calas de agua cristalina que son trocitos de cielo en el mediterráneo te están esperando.

 

1. Cala Agulla: El secreto de cala Mesquida - Capdepera

Es una cala de agua turquesa y arena fina y blanca. Cala Agulla, junto a Cala Mesquida, fue declarada Área Natural de Especial Interés en el año 1991. Es por eso que su frondoso pinar se conserva cuidadosamente. Aunque se trata de una cala el entorno es bastante grande y es por eso que es perfecta para unas vacaciones en familia.

 

2. Cala Motló: Cala de rocas

También llamada Es Guyó, esta opción es para los que prefieran una cala de rocas. Aun así, el fondo submarino es totalmente arenoso, algo que la hace parecer una piscina natural.

 

3. Son Real: Historia, cultura y playa – Can Picafort

Si lo tuyo es el senderismo esta es tu excursión ideal. Son Real es una casa de campo típica mallorquina que guarda un gran valor arquitectónico. Sobre el paisaje de la playa se aprecian elementos como torres de enfilación durante la posguerra.

 

4. Es Coll Baix: La playa roja – Bahía de Alcúdia

Esta cala se sitúa a siete kilómetros de Alcúdia y el acceso también requiere una pequeña excursión de media hora. Cuando llegas encuentras una cala virgen de piedras rojas que forman acantilados. Sentirás una nueva sensación.

 

5. L’estrella: Si tu pasión es bucear

L'Estrella es una cala de piedra y rocas que esconde un espectacular ecosistema bajo el agua. Visítala con calzado adecuado y unas gafas de bucear y descúbrelo.

 

6. Es Faralló:

Es la hermana pequeña de cala Aucanada. El aparcamiento es el mismo que para la playa de la Alcanada, luego debemos continuar un sendero 1,5 km aproximadamente. Como todos los hermanos, tiene algo especial.

 

7. Es caló des Monjo: Cuevas escondidas - Calvià

Aunque también forma parte de rutas de senderismo lo mejor es descubrir nadando las cuevas que esconde esta pequeña cala de arena y rocas.

 

8. Cala Llamp: Fácil acceso - Andratx

Si prefieres llegar a tu destino sin complicaciones esta es tu cala. El acceso desde la carretera es fácil y hay un parquing que te permitirá aparcar con facilidad. Aunque la cala es de rocas hay instalaciones con hamacas y sombrillas que harán tu estancia aun más cómoda.

 

9. Cala Tuent: Entre los pueblecitos de la Sierra - Sóller

En medio de los pueblecitos de la Sierra de Tramunana encontrarás esta cala de pequeñas piedras.
