Ses Illetes Snorkelling
I think Ses Illetes is one of the best spots in the Palma area for a swim and snorkel. The water is crystal clear, in some spots it is very deep and in others very shallow, it has a mixture of sandy beach and rocky routes into the sea. There is a great variety of life here in the sea, and wonderful seascapes. It is a place suitable for all abilities, even just a paddle! I visit Palma often and always come here for a dip. I am offered a choice of shopping with family of coming here; really it is a no brainer. Mind you I would rather have teeth pulled than go shopping.
Getting to Ses Illetes is a simple as getting on the number 3 bus from the centre of Palma (in the correct direction!) it cost I think one and a half Euros. Get off the bus when it stops because Ses Illetes is its terminus.
I should add the deep bit is towards the island on the right of the satellite image, the shallow beach area is on the left. These areas look inaccessible from the road as there is a security gate associated with the Kings residence I think. However if you cut past a little café you can easily walk around this.
