A Diver’s Paradise
Cala Lliteres is a narrow, rocky inlet tucked beside a residential and holiday complex. While its stone-covered shore might not appeal to sunbathers, it more than makes up for it with excellent diving conditions. The dramatic underwater landscape, complete with reefs and rocky drop-offs, attracts a steady flow of divers — so much so that a dedicated diving school occupies much of the cove, offering equipment, instruction, and access via a small jetty and landing ramp.
Windswept Beauty with Limited Anchorage
The cove is exposed to northern winds and waves, making it a poor choice for anchoring, although nearby l’Olla — a tiny inlet — offers a safe mooring for small boats under 10 metres. Just 0.5 nautical miles away is Club Nàutic Cala Ratjada, the nearest marina, offering further nautical services and facilities.
Easy Access, Yet Peacefully Quiet
Reaching Cala Lliteres is straightforward — follow the road signs to the village of Cala Lliteres, where free parking is available nearby. From there, a short walk along the Cala Agulla promenade brings you to this peaceful cove. Its rocky terrain and diver-heavy use mean that it remains relatively uncrowded, even in peak season, making it a hidden gem for those in search of aquatic adventure.
