Information and situation to Cala Mesquida

The Cala Mesquida is a bay with a beach of fine sand of 300 meters lenght and 130 meters width in the northeast of the island. The bay is located in a protected landscape.
In the urbanisation of the same name, which is located on the west side of the bay, are to be found hotels, restaurants, bars and even a German butcher for the daily necssity.

Several times ships were shipwrecked in this bay. During a while a French ship could be seen which had shipwrecked due to the fog. Although this, Cala Mesquida is considered as a good anchorage if you have not the bad chance to come across with the squally Tramuntana wind.
To active tourists a hicking tour from Cala Mesquida to Cala Agulla is recommended, crossing the Cap des Freu. On the summit a fabulous panoramic view over the Sierra de Tramuntana and the sea.
