Cala Blava Beaches

Locals, on the other hand, commonly refer to the beach as Cala Mosca or Cala Mosques, which is really the name for the entire bay, which includes several of the nearby coves.

Cala Blava is a lovely rocky bay with a sandy beach.

Cala Blava beach is covered in smooth, fine-grained sand toward the sea.

The sand grows coarser towards the back of the beach, with the occasional pebble tossed in for good measure.

On entering the sea, you’ll see that the fine sand extends out into the bay on a steady slope, allowing for easy access to the water.

Cala Blava is a nice beach for children because of the moderate drop into the typically calm sea.

Cala Blava beach lacks beach amenities such as loungers, bathrooms, and bars.

The surrounding neighbourhood is almost entirely residential, including a considerable number of vacation home rentals.

A moderate stroll down the cliffs is a necessity and will provide you with stunning views of the bay and Palma de Mallorca.

If the main beach becomes too crowded, Sa Pesquera Plana is a rocky outlet along the south coast that can be used for sunbathing.

If you continue down the same coastline, you’ll come upon the lovely tiny rocky bay of Calo de ses Lleonardes.

Mirador Son Veri Nou is located along the north shore of Cala Blava and offers amazing views of Palma de Mallorca’s harbour and the Mediterranean Sea.

Transport To Cala Blava

Cala Blava can easily be accessed via car or taxi from Palma airport.

If you prefer public transport, you’ll want to catch EMT (City Bus) bus number 22 which runs in a circular route starting at Placa D’Espanya in central Palma & finishes around the Southside of Cala Blava beach before returning back to Palma along the same route.

The other option is the TIB Migjorn 504 bus route & getting off at the Son Veri Nou stop on the Rambla street to the north of Cala Blava. You’ll have about a 1KM walk to Cala Blava though. So a taxi may be needed.

The TIB are the larger buses & tend to make fewer stops.
