Hotels near Cala Agulla

Cala Agulla (Carrer Cala Agulla s/n, Cala Ratjada) is a 600-metre beach on the northeast coast, set within the Cap de Cala Agulla natural area and backed by protected pine dunes rather than tourist development. The water is clear and the beach sand is fine and white; the surrounding scrubland gives it a wild, unconstructed feel rare on the Mallorcan coast. It faces northeast, making it excellent for morning sun and relatively calmer in the afternoon westerly winds.

The beach has limited facilities - no permanent sunlounger rental on most of the sand, a seasonal chiringuito at the northern end. The walk from Cala Ratjada town centre (2 km) passes through pine woods and takes about 25 minutes. The beach is not suitable for visitors with limited mobility due to the soft sand path.

Pro Tip: Walk from Cala Agulla north along the coastal path towards Cala Mesquida (40-min walk) for one of the best undeveloped coastal walks in eastern Mallorca. The path follows the clifftop above sea level with views across to Menorca on clear days. Cala Mesquida at the end is also an excellent beach, typically less crowded than Agulla.
