Why some Calvià beaches reopen while others stay closed
Some Calvià beaches reopen, but Magaluf and Santa Ponsa remain affected by a contract dispute and unpaid concession fees.
Published: April 22, 2026
Answer
Why are some beaches in Calvià open while Magaluf and Santa Ponsa are not?
Some beaches in Calvià are reopening because services are being restored there, while Magaluf and Santa Ponsa remain out of operation due to a contract dispute. The problem is linked to unpaid fees and uncertainty over the current concession holder. That leaves the municipality with a more complicated task than simply switching the service back on.
