Playa Maioris, also known as Maioris Dècima, is a unique coastal area located in Mallorca, Spain. It is characterized by its large, rocky landscape with several interesting bathing areas created by an old marl quarry. The furthest part of the beach from the coast features sand, adding to the diverse natural characteristics of the area. The beach spans 210 meters in length and 8 meters in width, and is known for its clear water and serene atmosphere.
Despite the beach's size, it is typically not crowded. Visitors are often dispersed across the rocks, contributing to the quiet, peaceful environment. The area is protected and boats frequently anchor here, but fishing is not allowed due to its status as a marine reserve.
Playa Maioris is not easily accessible due to its rocky and somewhat hazardous terrain. There are several entry points, one of which includes a staircase from the Maioris urbanization. The beach is also part of a hiking route called "Ruta Maioris Décima - Mirador des Delta - Mirador de Sa Torre - Puig de Ros". This route starts from a coastal hotel, passes by the Mirador des Delta and a private beach club, and concludes at the well-conditioned Mirador de Sa Torre. However, the descent to the coast is steep and requires appropriate footwear, and the uphill section towards the Sa Torre urbanization can be challenging.
The beach does not have many amenities, and there are no nearby restaurants. There are no facilities for disabled access and water sports are not offered. However, the beach is recommended for diving due to the underwater cliffs, which provide an excellent opportunity for snorkeling and observing marine life.
As for parking, there is no specific information available. Similarly, details on how to get there are not explicitly provided, although the proximity to nearby airports and the center of Puig de Ros suggests easy accessibility.
While visiting Maioris Dècima, visitors can also enjoy various attractions in the surrounding area, such as the Santa María de Palma Cathedral and the Aqualand El Arenal water park. Despite its lack of amenities and challenging terrain, the natural beauty and tranquility of Playa Maioris make it a favorite spot for locals and those who appreciate wild, untouched beaches.
