Cala Portals Vells — sea conditions
Open the interactive map for the current calm score and 48-hour wind and swell outlook. If forecast inputs are missing, the score remains unavailable rather than being guessed.
What to know
- Character: small beach, fine, light pale-gold sand
- Facing: E. Open-water fetch lies toward E, so wind and swell from that direction can enter; land gives stronger shelter toward N, NE, SE, S, SW, W and NW.
- Access: drive-up access; parking tricky
- Parking note: Dirt-track parking through pine forest from Magaluf; fills midday in summer
- Typical crowds: moderately busy — Sheltered coves near the caves; busier on boat-trip days
- Amenities: sunbeds, food nearby
