Description
A beautiful approach, meandering down through hills and valleys, brings you to the beach of Cala Benirrás. It is a pretty beach of partly pebbly sand, with rocks on either side that you can clamber over, and a picturesque view across the water to an interesting rock formation known as Cap Bernat (or referred to locals as 'the finger of God'). The sea bed is rocky which makes it excellent for snorkellers but not so easy to walk into... but that's all part of the fun! The water is crystal clear.
In summer there is a small hippy market every day apart from Wednesdays and Thursdays from late morning till evening, with stands selling fashion, accessories, craftwork, and more.
This sheltered bay is a popular anchoring spot for private yachts and motor boats that gather in the late afternoon to enjoy the romantic sundown.
Please note: The famous drumming that used to take place on Sundays, attracting thousands of people, no longer happens; however, smaller informal drumming sessions take place now every day at sunset.
