Cala Varques
F7XW+XC, 07680 S'Estany d'en Mas, Balearic Islands, Spain
Cala Varques is a secluded sandy cove on Mallorca’s east coast, known for its clear turquoise water, limestone cliffs and intimate, natural setting; it’s reached by an unpaved path from the nearest parking and has no built facilities.
What Makes It Special
The headland shelters a series of sea caves and rocky platforms, making the bay excellent for snorkelling, exploring caves and (for experienced visitors) cliff jumping into deep, clear water.
Insider Tips
Arrive early (or later in the afternoon), bring plenty of water, sun protection, sturdy shoes and snorkel gear—there are no cafés, toilets or lifeguards and the beach requires a roughly 20–30 minute walk along an unpaved track from the car park.
