Check out this spot in Cala Gat. Great spot for swimming and paddling, scuba diving, kayaking, canoeing, surfing, supping, body surfing and body boarding. Cala Gat is a small cove located on the east coast of the island of Mallorca in the Balearic Islands. The scenery around Cala Gat is stunning with crystal clear waters and rocky cliffs that frame the small beach. The cove is surrounded by pine trees and the landscape is dominated by rugged, rocky terrain that is typical of the eastern coast of Mallorca. The water is calm and suitable for swimming and snorkeling. The area is relatively undeveloped, and there are just a few small hotels and restaurants nearby, adding to the remote and natural feel of the area.
