User reviews
"Really great - it's beautiful, big, and not too crowded, so you have plenty of space to do whatever you want. The sand is a bit hard, so I'd recommend wearing socks, and the water has some rocks in it, so be careful where you go in. I've been there a lot and have made some really nice memories with my friends. It's easy to get to, too. I'd definitely recommend it - 10/10!"

"Cala Cap Roig is the perfect spot for a day out! It's small, but it's great, and it even has a xiringito with amazing food and stunning views. There are other beaches nearby if the main one is too crowded, but it's usually quite tranquil - a hidden gem!"
