Despite its relatively small size, Mallorca is blessed with beaches that could rival the paradisiacal beaches of the Caribbean \u2013translucent turquoise water\u00a0 and snow-white sand shaded by a scattering of fertile palm trees , and intimate bays where intimacy is granted by a backdrop of dramatic cliffs swathed by emerald forests.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Mallorca is home to more than 120 beaches, coves and bays, all of which offer their visitors unique pleasures and means that you don\u2019t have to travel far on Mallorca to find your own slice of paradise. With such a high-quality choice of beaches available to the discerning Mallorcan traveller, knowing which one to head to and lay the towel down for the day, can be a difficult, but let\u2019s be honest, pleasant decision to have to make.<\/p>\n

To help eradicate this potential holiday \u2018headache\u2019, Vintage Travel has located three of the best beaches in Mallorca which truly epitomise Mallorca\u2019s coastline at its most spectacular.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cala Mondrago, Santanyi<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the sand to the south of the island is usually white, many of Mallorca\u2019s most beautiful beaches can be found in the south and none more so than Cala Mondrago in Santanyi.<\/p>\n

Situated in the Mondrago National Park, one would be far pushed to find a more beautiful bay than than Cala Mondrago. The white sand is gently caressed by water as clear as a mountain stream, aesthetically complemented by a stunning backdrop of sand dunes, forests and wetlands, that provide the perfect environment for a delightful number of different species of birds.<\/p>\n

With many unusual and impressive rock formation circling this bay, Cala Mondrago provides a treat for snorkelers, or anyone wanting a day of peace, solitude and relaxation in the most beautiful of settings.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cala Deia, Soller<\/strong><\/p>\n

If the prospect of being covered in sand \u2013 despite it being white sand \u2013 doesn\u2019t sound too appealing, then heading to the west of the island where the landscape is dominated by the Tramuntana mountain range and the coastline becomes for jagged, rocky and pebbly, may be more appealing.<\/p>\n

The beach of Cala Deia is fairly difficult to reach, hence its relative anonymity even in the high season. Following a river that cascades from the picture-postcard village of Deia, to a small cove, concealed almost conveniently by a dramatically high cliff. This intimate and pebbly beach rarely has more than a handful of people on it and provides an almost lonely vista of Mallorca\u2019s most stunning scenery.<\/p>\n

Playa de Muro, Alcudia<\/strong><\/p>\n

If longer more sweeping and golden sandy beaches are what you desire, then head to northern Mallorca, to Playa de Muro in Alcudia.<\/p>\n

This stunning and immaculately kept beach sweeps along the coast for about six miles and its soft sand lined with palm trees, shallow crystal clear water and excellent choice of bars and restaurants, means Playa de Muro is a firm favourite for families.<\/p>\n

If you want a luxury villa in Mallorca<\/a> close to the beach, how about Vintage Travel’s Ses Crestes (pictured)? It’s really close, 150m!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
