This is my favorite spot for a swim. The water is perfect, and you can also dive here. There are so many fish to see, and the view is incredible.

Farola Beach is conveniently located just a 20 to 30-minute walk from Ciutadella, depending on your walking speed. Unfortunately, the water contains a lot of microplastics. However, on sunny days, the water is beautifully clear, with stunning blue and turquoise hues.

One of the finest beaches we explored on the island. The sea grass and marine life were unparalleled. It's a stunning location conveniently close to the port. The water remained wonderfully clear.
