Characteristics published by official sources

Playa Cala Canutells, also called Es Canutells, is a small golden-sand beach set in a mountainous and vegetated environment. Its 50 metres of length and 35 metres of width form a semi-urban strip with medium occupancy, calm waters and an anchorage area. Access combines driving with a walk along the GR-223, Camí de Cavalls, reached from the car park by stairs; there are fewer than 50 parking spaces and an interurban bus service. The beach has bathing markers, a boat channel and cleaning services.
