General info: 

Cala Barca is a small but pretty bay on the edge of Mondrago Park in the south east of Mallorca. It's 35 metres long by 25 metres deep and has golden sand.

The beach itself is small and can become crowded in peak season but it its much prettier than some of the beaches further up the coast in Cala d'Or as it is surrounded by pine and oak trees.

The closest resorts are Portopetro and Cala D'Or.
