Platja de Formentor — the sea today

Mallorca, Balearic Islands · live calm score updated hourly, 48-hour outlook

Platja de Formentor is a mid-sized beach on Mallorca facing SW. No direction faces the open sea head-on — the longest fetch is about 8 km toward the SW — so real swell rarely reaches it, though a fresh llebeig can raise some chop across the bay. The Balearic Bay scores it 0–100 every hour from the forecast wind and swell cast against its real bay geometry — open the interactive map on this page for the score right now, jellyfish outlook and the next 48 hours.
