We stayed at Hotel Pollentia which made it a 20 minute walk along the promenade and down one street to the start. It was then 30 minutes to the view point and a further 30 minutes down to the beach. We spent about an hour on the beach swimming, drying off and watching the goats. The water here is beautiful. It's cool and crystal clear and most welcome after a hot but beautifully scenic hike. We left our hotel at around 9:30am and arrived at just before 11am and this was hot and so leave earlier if you can. Also, when we arrived there were just a few people who left shortly after and then just as we were heading off, it seemed to get a bit busier; I can only imagine what it's like in a normal summer season and so an even better reason to set off early. It was a clear stoney path all the way to the viewing spot marked by a big rock but the second half is very steep and not easy. If you have any knee issues you may struggle with the pressure on your knees going down. It's a very stoney beach and so take beach shoes!! Also, take lots of water as there is nowhere to get this on the walk. It goes without saying, wear trainers!! You may also want to pack your snorkel kit or goggles. Beware that this is a nudist beach! We saw just two people when we were there. We went one way down and found a much easier way back! Just before you get to the viewing point, there is a left hand pathway, take that and head straight down as this seems to be one of the better ones. Don't make our mistake and head on down immediately after the viewing point.....it's worth backtracking just a few steps! I will attach a picture which hopefully you'll find useful. I say 'path' (!!)....it's not exactly clear as you pretty much get down the best way you can find but this was definitely an easier direction than our way down!

We twice did the walk to Cala Murta as the route down has plenty of shade so it's great on a hot day. We also enjoyed meeting the wild donkeys and the mountain goats on route. It's worth noting the donkeys are likely to turn up if you try to use the picnic tables. The beach was stony and had a small number of people on it so there was plenty of space to distance. The swimming was very pleasant and whilst I didn't do it at this beach I imagine snorkeling would be good.

Visited on a cloudy day, something to do when we couldn't sun bathe. Really pleasantly surprised, even without binoculars or a decent camera you can still appreciate this bird reserve and I got a couple of shots with mobile phone. Easy to find as is on Google maps, coming to this area of majorca for years, didn't know this was here. Small children will love ducks, we saw a heron and a white wading bird, lots of fish. Peaceful, well maintained with odd benches to sit and viewing platforms.

We stayed in Port Pollensa and visited this park a few times. Took a bit of investigating to find all the paths and hides as they are not signposted but a good map is available from La Gola. There are hides and high viewing platforms which overlook wetlands and open lakes. Lots of different birds, butterflies and flowers.
