Answer

Why do bodies sometimes wash up on Mallorca's east coast?

Bodies can reach Mallorca's shoreline for several reasons, including accidents at sea or dangerous crossings by boat. On the east coast, currents and weather can carry remains into coves such as Cala Agulla before they are discovered. Each case needs forensic examination before any conclusion can be made.
