Cala D'Or
Cala d’Or is situated at 15 kilometres from Portocolom. It has different names, like Caló de ses Dones, Cala d’Hort and Cala d’Or. This last one is also the name of the coastal village, which is also called ses Puntetes, and which is full of small coves until Felanitx. The beach is surrounded by rocky areas which are not very high, and it finishes with a small sandy area, beautiful, with fine-grained sand, gentle slope and some terraces that were built in order to create a bigger solarium area. The terraces are at the rear and are also covered with sand. The houses of the village are quite concealed behind the pine wood. This sandy area is one of the most pleasant and most sheltered ones of Santanyí, there is a cape in front of the coastline, which protects the beach, although from the coast you can’t see the open sea. Boats may anchor on a sandy ground with seaweed, with a depth that ranges from two to three metres, although this manoeuvre is more complicated when the wind is blowing from the east and the sea is less calm. The nearest port facilities are located at Port Esportiu Marina Cala d’Or, at 0,2 nautical miles. The accessibility by car is easy although you will have to park your private car in the streets of the village, whereas the nearest bus stop is located at 200 metres from the beach. This fact, together with the development of Cala d’Or explains that the beach is not too crowded. Information about this beach may change.
