A Beach in the Heart of Palma
Stretching along Paseo Marítimo, Platja de Can Pere Antoni is Palma’s most central beach, offering panoramic views of the city’s historic skyline, including the Gothic Cathedral La Seu and Episcopal Palace. This urban beach is bordered by breakwaters and is a lively extension of the capital itself, often buzzing with locals, joggers, and cyclists.
Urban Energy with Seaside Relaxation
Despite its proximity to Palma’s centre, Can Pere Antoni still offers space to unwind on fine golden sand. Though it’s a favourite for city residents, the beach is clean, accessible, and convenient, with cycling paths and a wide promenade that links Porto Pi with Ciudad Jardín. When winds are calm from the second or third quadrant, it becomes a tranquil spot for swimming and anchoring.
Anchoring & Transport Links
Anchoring is possible on a sandy and seaweed seabed, just offshore, and the nearest facilities are at Club Nàutic Portitxol, only 0.1 nautical miles east. Free parking is available nearby, with ORA zones closer to the shore, but visitors are encouraged to use public transport or arrive by bike or on foot to enjoy the spectacular seafront views of the Bay of Palma.
