My personal favourite for fish life and clear water is Benirras (enter from the rocks to the right as you face the sea) – the kelp beds and rocks combo means you get some decent-sized fish here if you swim around, almost guaranteed
Cala Xucla, S'illot des Rencil and Cala Xaracca (all near each other - NW)
Cala Mastella & Pou del Lleo (North East)
Cala d'en Serra (near Portinatx)
Cala de Boix (NE – only if it's calm)
Cala Carbo (West)
… there are loads of them actually !

Will depend... would be up for a massive lunch at Cala Mastella one day though.
Only catch is you need to go up there the day before to make reservations.

Yes, but it's good fun (and good food!) if you've got a group of people.what as in physically be there to reserve?
We'll figure it out on the island.
we can always goto a diff beach the day before and book at Mastella en route for another day.
When does Meryl get there?

They were booked solid a week ahead earlier in the season
Got a mobile number off them now tho' if you need it (and I can find it !) .. can then go along to put down the cash to confirm but at least get a steer/pencil in the book if you ask them nicely

What kiimjay sys - I adore the beaches up the North - they're rocky and have some great little coves.... and have some great little beach restaurants - especially at Xaracca 8)

Cool. we'll leave you in charge of that one then
most excellent! 8)
only odd sod out is Liam, who'd rather be spending the week in his giant Sardine tin than in Ibiza.
Went to xarracca twice. Both times sea was rough... Shame.

Unlucky - when it's calm from that direction it's lovely. Just need to head round the coast when it's like that .. you can always find another one fairly nearby that's sheltered up there.

Ooops - sorry Morbs
.. missed the further posts on this thread before for some reason ! Did you get up there and get the cellphone number ? The card I have with it on is about 3 hours away in the other abode which I won't be seeing until Saturday (in the spirit of eschewing modern conveniences it's not in my mobile phonebook )..
