Discover beaches in the north of Mallorca with the Blue Flag

The search for a better quality of life is a big reason motivating future house buyers to invest in a villa on the beautiful Balearic Island of Mallorca. The island is simply stunning, one landscape more beautiful than the next. Well-loved for its incredible coves and sandy beaches, many of which are awarded year on year with a "Blue Flag", the environmental seal of approval. The blue flag beaches offer a clean environment and pristine waters as well as good safety records, lifeguards, sanitary facilities and accessibility. This blog coming to you from the local real estate agent Engel & Völkers Mallorca North provides further information regarding the local beaches and why buying property in the north of Mallorca is the right choice.

Excellent beaches that might well be near your new villa

In Mallorca alone, 23 beaches have been awarded the Blue Flag in 2022. This environmental award is given to beaches and ports every year and insists

that certain information and environmentally friendly criteria are met. The award also stands for good water quality, excellent environmental management and a high level of safety.  The award was created by the Association for Environmental and Consumer Education (ADEAC), the objective of the project is to promote sustainable coastal development and tourism. The majority of the Blue Flag beaches in Majorca are in Santanyí and include Cala Gran, Cala Llombards, Cala Mondragó, Cala Santanyí and S'Amarador.  Blue Flag beaches are the best, offering a safe, relaxing haven to enjoy at your leisure. Buy a house with Engel & Völkers and pick your Blue Flag beach whenever you like.

For example, Cala Gran, a manmade urban beach, is one of the largest coves in Cala D’Or, its position means that the waters are usually very calm and ideal for snorkeling and splashing around with the kids. In the beautiful north of Mallorca is the absolutely stunning Playa de Muro that has a long stretch of soft white sand and crystalline waters. Summer or winter Playa de Muro is always a favourite for homeowners in the area, especially the sunsets over the Mediterranean are unforgettable. Check out the villas for sale in the region and maybe you too will get to enjoy this amazing beach that has also received an award for exemplary rescue services including lifeguard and first aid attention.
