Anchoring

19 spots on sand

The middle stretch of Llevant beach, the eastern side of the Es Trucadors sand spit inside the Ses Salines Natural Park: almost 1.5 km of fine white sand, very clear turquoise water and a sandy seabed with posidonia, with hardly a building in sight. It is usually far quieter than Ses Illetes, just a short walk away on the other side of the spit. It faces east, so an easterly wind brings some swell; a couple of beach bars serve food right on the sand.

Shelter by direction

Anchoring

Arena suggests 19 spots to anchor on sand, clear of Posidonia; the closest to the meadow is 71 m away.

Approximate depth: 1.2–5.8 m (EMODnet bathymetry).

Anchoring on Posidonia is forbidden: the app shows the meadow on the map and warns you if the anchor would land on it.
