CANYAMEL

The correct management of the beaches is a priority for the municipality of Capdepera, which since 2009 received an environmental certificate according to the ISO 14001:2004 standard. It is located on the beaches: Cala Mesquida, Cala Agulla, Son Moll, Cala Lliteres, Cala Gat, Font de Sa Cala i Canyamel. It also includes some named beaches with a white flag (Cala Agulla, Cala Mesquida, Font de Sa Cala i Canyamel).

Canyamel is 7 kilometers from Capdepera, between Cap des Pinar or des Raix and Cap Vermell. It is a valley irrigated by the entire torrent of the same name, habitat for fish and marine life, and guarded by the Serra de Sant Jordi and the Puig Negre.

This tourist and residential area is located together with the humid area that forms the torrent, at the mouth. The claims are the new beach and the Coves d'Artà (450 meters long and 310 meters in a straight line), the second most important to Mallorca, drilled into the penya-segats of Cap Vermell and visited, among others, by Jules Verne, Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.

This sandy beach of great torrent is located in front of the torrent, which is here. On the other hand, there is a stone surface and a high influx of local and tourist bathers.

The underwater conditions of this sandy area, facing south, are optimal for anchoring a boat, since it is not exposed to storms. If it registers a depth that varies between four and five meters above sea level, the best option for anchoring a boat is in a starboard entrance, just above the penya-segats of Cap Vermell. Within two nautical miles you will find the nearest port facility, Club Nàutic Cala Rajada.

Access by road is simple, following the road traffic signal. The private vehicle can be parked free of charge along the beach or between the voltage roads. The bus stops at the rodalies.
