About Cala Moltó
Cala Moltó is a small rocky cove on the north-east tip of Mallorca, in the municipality of Capdepera, about 3 km north of the resort of Cala Ratjada. It sits just beyond the far (northern) end of the much larger Cala Agulla, tucked behind the Punta des Gulló headland and backed by pine woods. The cove is roughly 100 m long and only about 10 m deep. Despite being catalogued as a sand beach, it is mostly flat rock platforms and ledges with small pockets of sand and gravel between them, so most people lie on the stone. Getting into the water means stepping off rocks that can be slippery, and the cove is open to north-west winds, which can raise a swell quickly. The water is clear and is part of the Llevant de Mallorca marine reserve, which makes it popular for snorkelling. The Spanish Naturist Federation lists Moltó as a beach of traditional nudist use, and guide sites describe nude bathing as normal here, with clothed and nude visitors sharing the rocks. There is no designated nude section: the whole cove is used, and the scattered rock shelves give groups some privacy. The land behind it has been protected as an Area of Special Natural Interest since 1991, along with Cala Agulla and Cala Mesquida.
Getting there
No road reaches the cove. Drive to Cala Agulla, north of Cala Ratjada, and use the paid car park there (opening hours and fees vary; it fills early in July and August). From the northern end of Cala Agulla, follow the sandy, then rocky, footpath through the pines for about 500 m, roughly 10-15 minutes. The path is uneven, so wear sturdy sandals rather than flip-flops. Bus stops at Cala Agulla and Cala Ratjada are 1.3-1.7 km away. The cove is not suitable for wheelchairs or pushchairs.
What visitors say
Guides describe Moltó as a quieter, more naturist alternative to busy Cala Agulla, used mostly by people willing to walk and to sunbathe on rock. Nude bathing is described as unremarkable and relaxed. Common advice: bring water shoes for the rocky entry, a mat or thick towel, water and sun protection, since there is little shade and no services. Accounts differ on crowding: some call it quiet, others say it fills in July and August. Families with small children are usually pointed to Cala Agulla instead.

Legal context
Nudity is not an offence on Spanish public beaches, and the Spanish Penal Code has not treated it as public indecency since 1989. A municipality can still restrict it by local ordinance. The Spanish Naturist Federation lists Cala Moltó as a beach of traditional nudist use; there is no municipal nudist signage that we found (checked 2026). The cove is within a protected natural area and marine reserve, so fires, camping and some fishing and anchoring are restricted.
Naturism at Cala Moltó sits under Spain's rules for officially designated nude beaches — explicit protection inside the marked area.

Frequently asked questions
Is nudity allowed at Cala Moltó?
Yes. The Spanish Naturist Federation lists it as a beach of traditional nudist use, and nude and clothed bathers share it.
How do I get there?
Park at Cala Agulla and walk about 500 m (10-15 minutes) north along a path through the pines.
Is it sandy?
Mostly not. It is rock platforms with small patches of sand and gravel, so bring a mat and water shoes.
Are there facilities?
None at the cove. Toilets, food and sunbeds are at Cala Agulla, on the way back to the car park.
Is it good for children?
Not really: the walk, rocky entry and lack of lifeguards make sandy Cala Agulla a better choice for young children.
