🌴 El Arenal: energy, fun and amazing coves in the southeast of Mallorca

📍Located between Palma and Llucmajor, El Arenal is much more than a leisure destination. Its spacious marina, long golden sand beach, and proximity to idyllic coves make it an excellent starting point for boat trips.

The El Arenal Marina (Club Nàutic Arenal) offers all the necessary services to comfortably embark and explore a coast rich in contrasts: low cliffs, golden rock coves, quiet bathing areas and protected natural corners.

🛥️ From here you can enjoy short trips ideal for half a day or a full day, sailing to places like Es Trenc , Cala Pi , or the Deltas Marine Reserve . It's also a very convenient area thanks to its easy access from Palma and its wide range of services.
