Beach, water and a stroll

Palm trees provide shade on Cala Vinyes’s sandy beach. In summer, locals and tourists enjoy swimming in the clear water over the shallow sandy seabed. Behind the beach, a palm-lined waterfront promenade offers a place to stroll by the sea. This brings together different beachside interests: swimming in summer and walking along the coastal path. When planning your trip, you can decide which of these activities you’d like to focus on.

A cultural highlight in Cala Vinyes

The Cala Vinyes quarry is on a rocky slope at the entrance to the area. It is one of three catalogued examples of this type of extraction site in the municipality of Calvià. This adds a different thematic focus to the beach: a quarry on rocky terrain. If you also take cultural themes into account when choosing a destination, you can consider this alongside the beach and waterfront promenade.
