Anchoring

14 spots on sand

Three small sandy beaches separated by rocks, about 600 m in all, just west of the fishing harbour of Es Caló de Sant Agustí on the north coast. Crystal-clear, shallow water over sand and rock that is great for snorkelling, dunes with junipers behind and views of the La Mola cliffs. A strong northerly (tramontana) makes the sea rough; there are no facilities on the sand, but the fish restaurants of Es Caló are very close.

Anchoring

Arena suggests 14 spots to anchor on sand, clear of Posidonia; the closest to the meadow is 9999 m away.

Approximate depth: 0.7–7.9 m (EMODnet bathymetry).

Anchoring on Posidonia is forbidden: the app shows the meadow on the map and warns you if the anchor would land on it.
