<p><img src="https://cdn.marblism.com/ZxpvmZgbIln.webp" alt="Cala des Moro Paradise"></p>
<p>If you're planning a few days in southeast Mallorca, there are three places that are almost guaranteed to win you over: Cala Llombards, Caló des Moro, and s'Almunia. They’re all very close to Santanyí, and each one has its own personality. The idea behind this guide is simple: make things easy for you. I’ll tell you how to get there, what to expect, and what to keep in mind, with the feeling of getting tips from a local friend who just wants you to have a really good beach day.</p>
<h2>1. An overview of the area</h2>
<p>Southeast Mallorca’s coastline is full of limestone cliffs and small sea inlets known locally as calas. Many of the prettiest ones are within the municipality of Santanyí. Access can change depending on the season, visitor numbers, and environmental protection measures, so a little planning goes a long way.</p>
<h2>2. Cala Llombards</h2>
<p>Cala Llombards is a sandy cove about 8 kilometers from the town of Santanyí. It’s one of those beaches that is very easy to recommend because it ticks all the right boxes: clear water, soft sand, and a beautiful setting without needing a full adventure mission to reach it.</p>
<h3>2.1 What you’ll find</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Surface:</strong> White sand.</li>
<li><strong>Water:</strong> Clear and usually calm.</li>
<li><strong>Facilities:</strong> Seasonal beach bar, sunbed rentals, and public showers.</li>
</ul>
<h3>2.2 How to get there and where to park</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Car access:</strong> You can reach it via Carrer de la Cala Llombards.</li>
<li><strong>Parking:</strong> There is a free parking area at the entrance to the beach. </li>
<li><strong>Capacity:</strong> Limited. In June, July, and August, it’s best to arrive before 09:00 unless you enjoy starting your morning by circling for a parking spot.</li>
</ul>
<h3>2.3 Places to stay nearby</h3>
<p>Santanyí Rentals manages several properties within walking distance or a short drive from this beach. Some options include:</p>

<h2>3. Es Caló des Moro</h2>
<p>Es Caló des Moro is a protected natural cove very close to the Cala Llombards area. Yes, it’s gorgeous. Yes, it’s all over social media. And yes, in peak season it gets extremely busy. Still, if you go prepared, it remains a very special place to visit.</p>
<h3>3.1 What you’ll find</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Surface:</strong> Very little sand and quite a lot of rocky ground.</li>
<li><strong>Water:</strong> Turquoise, perfect for swimming and snorkeling.</li>
<li><strong>Facilities:</strong> None. There are no toilets, bars, or bins at the cove.</li>
</ul>
<h3>3.2 How to access it</h3>
<ol>
<li><strong>Parking:</strong> You cannot drive directly to the immediate area of the cove. You need to park in the designated Cala Llombards parking area.</li>
<li><strong>Walking route:</strong> From there, expect a walk of around 1.2 kilometers.</li>
<li><strong>Terrain:</strong> The final stretch includes a steep descent on an unpaved path. It’s not comfortable for anyone with reduced mobility or for anyone carrying enough gear to survive a week outdoors.</li>
</ol>
<h3>3.3 Safety and rules</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Footwear:</strong> Sturdy shoes are strongly recommended for the descent.</li>
<li><strong>Waste:</strong> Anything you bring with you should leave with you, as there is no waste collection service.</li>
<li><strong>Supervision:</strong> There is no lifeguard at this cove.</li>
</ul>

<h2>4. Cala s'Almunia and Caló des Macs</h2>
<p>These coves are right next to Es Caló des Moro and share the same general access route. If you’ve already made it this far, they’re absolutely worth adding to the plan.</p>
<h3>4.1 Cala s'Almunia</h3>
<p>Cala s'Almunia has a small jetty and traditional fishermen’s houses that give it a lot of character. The water is deep, and the area is mostly rocky platforms.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Activity:</strong> Diving and jumping from the platforms.</li>
<li><strong>Access:</strong> Reached via a steep staircase of 120 steps.</li>
</ul>
<h3>4.2 Caló des Macs</h3>
<p>This is a smaller, rockier inlet a little further along the coastal path. It can be a very good backup option when the better-known coves are already packed.</p>
