A Cove Where Nature Meets Tourism
Once a secluded cove, Caló de sa Barca Trencada now blends natural beauty with modern tourism. Located near several hotels, this beach still offers a charming setting of pine trees, scrubland, and dune flora, but its growing popularity means it’s frequently visited by tourists. You may even spot a native land turtle while exploring nearby trails toward Punta des Savinar or Cala Figuera.
A Split Landscape of Rock and Sand
This small cove is divided into two contrasting sections—a rocky shelf to the left and a sandy beach to the right, where mounds of pines provide scattered natural shade. The long, narrow entrance and calm waters give it a peaceful, intimate feel despite the hotel presence.
Anchor-Friendly but Busy
For boaters, anchoring is safe and straightforward on a sandy seabed around 5 metres deep, especially when winds are from the southwest or west. With clear signage and a free parking area, access by car is simple from both s'Alqueria Blanca and Portopetro.
