What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Es Xarco is a rustic, isolated gravel beach set in a mountainous, vegetated environment. Its profile is narrow and elongated: 125 metres long but only 4 metres wide, with calm waters and low occupancy. The description presents it as a place frequented by families and notes the presence of a kiosk-bar. It is easily reached on foot or by car from the PM-803 road, with parking for fewer than 50 vehicles. There is also an anchorage, and rental activities such as sun loungers and parasols are permitted.
