Mallorca: Cala Figuera Boat Tour to Caló del Moro & S'Almunia

Small group boat ride from Cala Figuera to Caló des Moro with swim stops

You’ll glide along Mallorca’s southeast coast by rib boat from Cala Figuera with a local skipper, passing Es Pontàs rock arch before stopping for a swim at Caló des Moro or S’Almunia. Snorkel gear is included so you can spot fish in crystal water or wander by old fishermen’s huts. Just bring your curiosity (and maybe a towel). It’s quiet, salty, and surprisingly grounding.

The experience

I didn’t expect the water at Cala Figuera to look so clear: almost unreal, like someone had dialed up the color just for us. The morning was already warm when we met our skipper, Toni, who greeted everyone with a quick “Bon dia!” and a grin that made it hard not to smile back. There were only eight of us on the rib boat, which felt just right: close enough to swap sunscreen but not elbow-to-elbow. The engine buzzed as we left the port behind, and suddenly the air smelled sharp and salty, mixed with something herbal from the pines clinging to the cliffs.

We hugged the coast past Cala Santanyí, where kids waved from a rocky ledge and someone’s radio played old Spanish pop. Toni slowed down near Es Pontàs: a massive stone arch jutting out of the sea. He pointed out how locals say it looks like an elephant drinking (I squinted, maybe if you tilt your head). I tried to get a photo but mostly just stared. There was a weird hush here, except for gulls arguing overhead. Then came the caves: Toni told us smugglers used them long ago, which made me imagine all sorts of stories. The boat bobbed gently while he explained in both Spanish and English: his accent thick but easy enough to follow.

When we finally reached Caló des Moro, I almost laughed out loud. The cove is tiny but feels private, especially arriving by sea. We had about forty minutes to swim or just float around. The water was cold at first but then perfect. I borrowed a snorkel mask (included) and spotted silver fish darting between rocks. At one point I just lay on my back watching clouds drift by: felt like time stopped for a bit there. Some folks wandered over towards S’Almunia’s fishermen huts. They’re faded blue and red, doors hanging crookedly, nets drying in the sun. It smelled faintly of seaweed and old wood.

On the way back to Cala Figuera, no one said much. Just sat quietly or chatted softly over the hum of the motor. Maybe everyone was tired or maybe we were all just letting it sink in. I keep thinking about that hidden hush under Es Pontàs and how salt stuck to my skin after swimming at Caló des Moro. If you want a small group day trip from Cala Figuera that actually feels personal (and you don’t mind your hair getting wild from the wind), this is it.
