Cala Figuera, Mallorca

Information about Cala Figuera, Mallorca

Cala Figuera, located in the municipality of Santanyí, in the southeast of Mallorca, is a picturesque fishing port that stands out for its natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere. This small cove is characterised by its crystal-clear waters and a scenic setting made up of cliffs, pine groves and traditional white houses overlooking the sea. Along its port, the ‘llauts’ (traditional fishing boats) and fishermen's warehouses give it an authentic touch that has managed to resist mass tourism, maintaining its original essence. Strolling through its narrow streets and quays is like stepping back in time to a more peaceful and traditional Mallorca.

The shape of the cove, narrow and elongated, creates a natural harbour that juts inland, offering breathtaking views from several elevated points. Its surroundings are perfect for walks that allow you to enjoy unspoilt coastal scenery and the constant contrast between the blue of the sea and the green of the Mediterranean vegetation. Despite being a popular destination, Cala Figuera maintains a serene atmosphere, far from the hustle and bustle of other more touristy areas of the island, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking a more relaxed experience in contact with nature.

In addition to its natural surroundings, Cala Figuera has a small but charming range of restaurants and cafés that line the harbour, where it is possible to sample fresh fish and local produce while enjoying the views. Although it does not have a sandy beach, the cove is ideal for swimming or snorkelling thanks to its transparent waters. Cala Figuera, with its combination of natural beauty, tranquillity and authenticity, is one of the most special and least exploited corners of the Mallorcan coast, perfect for those looking to disconnect and enjoy the coastal charm of the island.
