Coastal dead end, tight turning
Ma-6110, 07650, Santanyí
Been here?
This roadside spot at the end of a dead-end road is quiet in the low season and close to the sea. It is best suited to a small van, with mosquitoes reported and no turning area at the end. In high season, parked vehicles can make the road impossible to turn around on, so arrival and departure require care. Walking routes lead to Platja d’es Caragol and Cala Màrmols.

Spot at the end of a dead-end road without a turning area. Avoid absolutely in high season, otherwise it is impossible to turn around due to vehicles parked on both sides of the road. Mosquitoes already present in early May. We were alone. Quiet in the low season and a starting point for a hike along the coastal path.
Good flat spot for a small van. Despite the wind tonight, there were many hungry mosquitoes.
We slept very well. Ideally arrive around 20:00–21:00 to find a space to sleep, and go to the beach early.
Several cars were robbed here, and it is very cramped.
DANGER: parking during the day is not recommended. Cars are parked in single file on both sides of the road for 500 m, making it impossible to turn around. On the walk to the lighthouse, four cars had been broken into through the rear window on the ditch side. One of the owners was reporting it to the police and insurance company. We took turns staying with the motorhome while discovering the superb panorama.
Hello. The road shoulders are very uneven. It is no longer possible to spend the night there. We just saw a truck with a wheel clamp. Have a sunny day.
There is no parking area, only a road without a turning circle.
You have to park 300 meters before reaching the lighthouse to be level. There is a section on both sides of the road without yellow lines that is wider, allowing you to park and spend the night. There is almost no mobile coverage. At the lighthouse entrance there are containers. There are two entrances to private properties where it is easy to turn around with a long vehicle. Perfectly quiet night. The beach at El Caragol is 25 minutes away.
You literally park on the sides of the dead-end road leading to the lighthouse. It is best to arrive very early or very late. There is quite a slope because the road is uphill. From there you can walk to El Caragol beach in 30 minutes and Cala Màrmols in about an hour. No services, only rubbish containers next to the lighthouse. Not very clean. Very quiet night; we slept alone.
Okay for spending the night, but unfortunately relatively dirty. A bathing beach can be reached on foot in 20 minutes.
