Calo des Moro Beach

Caló des Moro Beach is a charming and secluded spot on Mallorca's southeast coast.

It is renowned for its crystal-clear waters, rugged cliffs, and lush greenery, all combined to offer a peaceful refuge away from the bustling tourist destinations on the island. Despite its popularity, the beach retains its raw and unspoiled beauty.

Key Features of Caló des Moro Beach

  • Stunning Natural Beauty: Caló des Moro is characterized by its clear turquoise waters and fine sandy beach, nestled between high cliffs and lush greenery. The beach's pristine condition is preserved thanks to its location in a protected area.
  • Secluded Atmosphere: Its relatively hidden location means Caló des Moro remains less crowded than other beaches on the island, providing a peaceful setting for visitors.
  • No Facilities: Emphasizing its untouched nature, Caló des Moro lacks the commercial facilities found at other beaches, which helps maintain its serene atmosphere.

Why Visit Caló des Moro Beach?

Caló des Moro is ideal for those seeking a natural beach experience away from the hustle and bustle. Its breathtaking scenery and tranquil waters make it perfect for swimming, snorkelling, and soaking up the sun in a relatively undisturbed environment.

Planning Your Visit

  • Access: Accessing Caló des Moro requires effort, but the reward is worth it. The beach is accessible by car, with parking available on nearby roads. Be mindful of parking regulations to avoid any inconvenience. From the parking area, there are two main paths to the beach, each offering its unique views and experiences. One path leads directly through the bush, offering stunning beach vistas. At the same time, the other takes you down to Cala S'Almunia before connecting to Caló des Moro via a scenic trail.
  • Best Time to Visit: To avoid crowds, visiting early in the morning or outside the peak summer months is best. The limited space on the beach fills up quickly, so an early start can ensure a spot on the sand.
  • What to Bring: With no facilities on or near the beach, visitors should bring all necessary supplies, including water, snacks, sun protection, and any desired beach gear. Remember to carry out all trash to help preserve the beach's natural beauty.

An Open Secret

Once a hidden gem known only to locals, Caló des Moro has gained fame through social media, making it a must-visit destination on the island.

While this has increased visitor numbers, the beach's natural beauty remains intact. However, be prepared for it to be busier than what might be expected of a secret beach.

My Honest Advice

Caló des Moro doesn't offer amenities like bars or services, and the sandy area is limited. This can lead to crowded conditions, especially as the day progresses.

For a more peaceful experience, visit before 10 am and avoid weekends during the high season.
