Beach overall scores
Sant Joan Beach (Balearic Islands) is located outside the Mal Pas settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Majorca and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Sant Joan Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"This location has a maximum capacity of 40 people, which is not really ideal for a big crowd. The water is quite clear, but the fishes are not that plentiful. There are lifeguards and a lifeguard tower, but parking is quite limited and can be full during peak hours. Not a great choice if you are looking for a beach with a lot of people and activities."
Niko
"This spot is a true gem! With its crystal clear waters and lack of crowds, it's the perfect place to get away from the touristy areas. The parking is conveniently located right next to the beach, and if you don't mind a short walk, there are plenty of spots further away. Don't forget to bring your own umbrella - many women here like to go topless! Plus, you're only a couple ..."
