Cala Mitjana (south)
Cala Mitjana is located on the east coast of Mallorca, only a few kilometres north of the popular holiday resort, Cala d’Or.
This beach is one of two beaches in Mallorca with the same name. The other, and larger, Cala Mitjana is located on the north coast of Mallorca.
The beach in general
Cala Mitjana is beautifully located at the end of a narrow, 250-metre-long bay.
The beach is only 20-25 metres long, but it is covered with very fine-grained sand. The water is crystal-clear and the beach has very shallow water. Due to the location of the beach, waves are very rare.
There are almost no facilities at the beach apart from a beach bar. Cars can be parked nearby at Cala Sa Nau, from which there is a 20-minute walk. The beach is rarely crowded, but in July and August there are quite many visitors.
Child friendliness
The water is shallow at the beach and even though there may not be so much room to play during the peak season, the beach is very child-friendly. However, do remember that there is a 20-minute walk to the beach.
Water sports
There are no water sports facilities at Cala Mitjana, however, the beautiful, narrow bay is ideal for snorkelling.
Restaurants by the beach
There are no restaurants, but it is possible to buy refreshments in the beach bar.
