Cala Deià
Cala Deià, Spain
Cala Deià is a small, pebbly cove beneath the hilltop village of Deià, famed for its clear turquoise waters, rocky ledges and natural rock pools rather than stretches of sand — a favourite spot for swimming, snorkelling and sunbathing on the rocks.
What Makes It Special
A celebrated cliffside seafood restaurant sits right above the cove, offering terraces almost at sea level so diners enjoy dramatic views and the sound of waves while eating fresh local seafood.
Insider Tips
Arrive early or late afternoon to avoid the busiest periods; wear sturdy water shoes for the pebbles and slippery rocks, bring a snorkel to explore the clear water, and plan to park in Deià and walk down the steep path (the cove is not wheelchair accessible).
