Mediterranean
The site itself, where it sits, and what to know before you plan a snorkel around it. We describe it accurately — access and conditions are verified locally, on the day.
A protected no-take marine park of islets and bays with unusually rich fish life and clear water — reached by licensed boat from Mallorca and generally quiet.
This is one of the key sites on Balearics, which sits at #10 on our ranked catalog. Protected coves, clear shallows and posidonia meadows around Mallorca, Menorca and Ibiza.
Park regulations restrict anchoring — join a permitted tour.
Pair it with Illes Malgrats marine reserve off Calvia in south-west Mallorca if you want protected rocky-reef fish life on a shorter boat trip from the popular side of the island — healthy reef fish in clear water, without the full-day crossing. Cabrera's own note applies either way: park regulations restrict anchoring, so join a permitted tour.
Verify access locally and confirm with your guide on the day.
