## What is Cala Tuent like?

Cala Tuent is an isolated cove of sand, gravel and pebbles in Escorca, about 180 m long, between Sa Costera and Sa Calobra. It sits between the headlands of Punta de Sa Corda and Morro des Forat, under a hill covered in pines. Escorca council counts it among the few untouched coves left on the island.

## How do I get to Cala Tuent, and where do I park?

You can drive to Cala Tuent on the Ma-2141, and the last stretch of road down is steep. You can park very close to the beach. Under Escorca's 2024 parking ordinance, Cala Tuent is a paid parking zone, with time limits from 9:00 to 19:00 between 1 April and 31 October. The same ordinance also makes parts of the Cala Tuent area restricted-traffic zones, open only to listed vehicles such as those taxed in Escorca or holding a council pass, so follow the signs. In summer, boats also run to the cove from Port de Sóller, and a hiking trail links it with the port's Mirador de Ses Barques.

## What are the sand and water like at Cala Tuent?

Cala Tuent has a strip of dark sand that soon gives way to gravel and pebbles. The cove is about 55 m wide, and the seabed is sand, rock and Posidonia seagrass. Waves are usually moderate.

## What facilities does Cala Tuent have?

Cala Tuent has no services on the beach, so bring drinking water and something to eat. On the left, a staircase climbs to the only restaurant in the area. No lifeguard service is confirmed, and Escorca has no beach on ADEAC's 2026-2027 Blue Flag list.

## When is Cala Tuent busiest?

Cala Tuent's occupancy is rated medium. Coaches, minibuses, vehicles over 4.5 tonnes, caravans and motorhomes may only arrive between 11:00 and 13:30. The 2024 ordinance allows just 5 coach parking places a day at Cala Tuent, and they must be booked in advance all year.

## Which winds affect Cala Tuent?

Cala Tuent faces north-northwest, about 336°, so we estimate that northwest and north winds send waves into the cove. Southeast and south winds blow offshore, so those are usually the calmer days.

## What should I watch out for at Cala Tuent?

At Cala Tuent, wear bathing shoes: past the sand the shore is gravel and pebbles, and rocks lie on the seabed. There is no official water-quality sampling point at Cala Tuent.
