The beach consists of a U-shaped inlet with two adjoining sandy areas, connected by a small palm-lined promenade that offers plenty of shade and relaxation for the large number of tourists and local visitors who frequent this spot.

Boating & Anchoring
Anchoring conditions are excellent directly in front of Cala Vinyes, particularly near the entrance to the bay, where there is a sandy seabed with depths ranging from 3 to 6 metres. On the port side of the cove, a small jetty provides additional docking options for small vessels. The nearest port facilities are located at Club Nàutic Portals Vells, approximately 2.3 nautical miles away.
Access & Popularity
Access is straightforward via a well-marked but winding road, with free parking available nearby. Public transport also serves the area, with a bus stop located close to the beach. Thanks to its full range of facilities, Blue Flag status, and sheltered setting, Cala Vinyes experiences high visitor numbers, attracting families, resort guests, and beachgoers seeking a vibrant, well-serviced beach experience just a short distance from Palma.
