Cardiac Arrest in a Bathing Bay: What's Missing on Mallorca's Small Beaches?

Answer

Why are Mallorca’s small coves more vulnerable in beach emergencies?

Small coves often have limited road access, fewer signs, and less visible emergency equipment than larger beaches in Mallorca. When something serious happens, those gaps can delay help in the crucial first minutes. Even if passersby and lifeguards do everything right, the rescue chain is often harder to organise in remote spots.
