Playa de Cala Pi

Playa de Cala Pi is a picturesque beach located in the village of Cala Pi, approximately 17 kilometers from Llucmajor, in the southern part of Mallorca, Spain. The beach is nestled between cliffs and is known for its golden sand and turquoise blue water. The beach is narrow, stretching only 50 meters long, but extends 140 meters wide, giving it a unique shape. It is sheltered by the cliffs, making it a safe and protected place from wind, and offering spectacular views.

Playa de Cala Pi gets its name from the pine trees that can be found in the area. The beach is known to have a relaxed atmosphere, despite getting busy, especially on weekends. It is popular among both local and international tourists, and is suitable for families, solo travelers, and all types of beach goers. However, the beach does not have facilities for disabled access.

Despite its popularity, Playa de Cala Pi maintains its natural beauty. The beach's water may sometimes appear slightly cloudy due to being sheltered, but it is clean and refreshing.

These jellyfish are fluorescent and transparent with pink or purple tones, and their stings can cause pain, burning, nausea, and muscle cramps.
