CALA RAFALINO - Chalet for 6 people in S'Illot (Cala Morlanda) .

Parking was simple and the scenery is lovely, but the shore is covered in big rocks and boulders, which made getting into the water difficult. We went in mid to late September. The water was warm, but there was rubbish floating in it, including bottles and lost flip-flops. Definitely not good for snorkeling.

The views are beautiful, the water is clear, and even in high season it wasn't very crowded. There are good spots for cliff jumping. Getting into the water over the rocks is awkward, though, and there isn't a way to set up an umbrella, so you'll need to lie in the shade.

My wife and I live a little over a mile from Cala Morlanda, so we go there often, sometimes by car and sometimes on foot. It's a peaceful, picturesque Cala with lots of views worth photographing. The Mediterranean water is clear, and there are no restaurants, bars, or shops within a mile.

There wasn't much room at this little rocky Cala, but it also wasn't busy. The views are lovely. There were some waves when I visited, though snorkeling was still good. Bring water shoes, since there are lots of rocks where you enter the water.
