3D virtual tourStart the tourYou can get to Cala Gració on foot or by car. Look for the roundabout at the highest point of Sant Antoni’s town centre, which you reach by following the signs to the health centre: there you’ll see the sign for the beach. After a straight stretch of roughly one kilometre, you’ll come to one last roundabout, from where the road goes down to the cove.
An aquarium at Cala Gració
On the way you can stop at a cove on your left, which is a bit tricky to reach and full of fishermen’s boat shelters. This is where you’ll find the Cap Blanc Aquarium. It is actually a cave open to the sea, with a small natural pool in the rock where you can see the species typical of the area: leerfish and rays, moray eels and, above all, magnificent groupers. The cave was once used as a lobster farm and today it is a centre known for rescuing sea turtles.
Next to the aquarium there is a jetty served by boats from the other end of the bay of Sant Antoni, the most touristy side, and from there you can take a boat trip around these waters.

About Cala Gració
Cala Gració Beach belongs to the municipality of Sant Antoni and lies almost within the town itself. It is a sheltered cove shaped like a U, about fifty metres long, very wide and with few waves. It is a small sandy beach with shallow water, which is why it is so popular with local people, especially those with young children.
Away from the sand, the cove is quite rocky: bring water shoes so you don’t scratch yourself or slip on the rocks. It isn’t a particularly interesting spot for snorkelling unless you swim round the cove, but it is ideal for little ones trying out a mask and snorkel for the first time. From either end of the cove you can also go rod fishing.
