You will also see a large sign for the parking for the three beaches ‘Son Saura’, ‘Cala Turqueta’ and ‘Macarella’ at this exit. Follow this narrow road straight ahead round all the curves till you get to a distinct signposted fork in the road. Veer right towards Cala en Turqueta. The first car park you reach is the free car park approx. 850m away from the beach.

Access 2 – Via the sea.  You can arrive Cala en Turqueta by boat, kayak or jet ski however due to the size of the cala boats must moor outside of the designated area for swimming marked by bouys.

Access 3 –  Walking from Cala Macarella, via the horse trail along the coast known as the ‘Camí de Cavalls’. This is almost a 2km scenic walk passing by Cala Macarelleta on the way.
