There are 3 immediate beaches which can be accessed by foot from the
villa. Each taking only a 5/10 minute walk.
San Pere - beautiful sandy cove with sun beds and a friendly beach bar
serving light lunches, drinks and ice creams. This stays open in the
summer until the early hours (1am) for those who wish to enjoy a beach
party evening. The beach is perfectly safe for young and old and is
gently shelving. On a windy day it is fantastic fun in the waves.
San Joan - A short stroll over a low rock peninsula from San Pere Beach
brings you to the unspoilt beach of San Joan. Peaceful and secluded -
wonderful to enjoy a picnic and a swim. This can also be reached by road
with a short climb down steps.
San Illiot - In the opposite direction you will find a bar/restaurant
perched on the top of a hill. At the bottom is the beach of San Illiot.
This is a pebbly beach, very popular with the locals at weekends.
Wonderful food and beverages are served throughout the day. There are
numerous picnic benches and an evening meal spent here watching the sun
go down is well worth the effort. (Take candles and mosquito repellent
with you).
Puerto Pollensa - By car/taxi/bus this is only a 10 min journey. By
bicycle this is a 30 minute ride. The beach is long and sandy with sun
beds and parasols. Just before the shops begin on your left-hand side,
you will find on the beach, the Sail & Surf Club . Here you have all the
water sports you could wish for. The beach continues for many miles and
if you continue
past the marina and past all the restaurants, you will
come to the famous Pine Walk area. This is a tree lined crazy paved walk
along the beach passing tiny little coves to swim from and sunbath in
and simply watch the world go by. Half way along you will come to The Illa D'or Hotel whereby you can enjoy some refreshments or a meal if you
wish. Certainly worth a visit for those who have never visited Puerto Pollensa before.
Puerto Alcudia - By car/taxi/bus this is only a 10 min journey. By
bicycle this is a 30 minute ride. The beach is another long and sandy
one with lots to do. It is much busier than Puerto Pollensa and goes on
for miles.
Cala St Vincente - A short car journey (15 mins) the other side of
Puerto Pollensa. A very pretty area with two small sandy beaches. Sun
beds & parasols. Restaurants and bars. Wonderful waves to have fun in.
Worth a visit. No water sports here. |
