Today I met Marta at the Plaça d'Espanya after she got off work at the university. We went to her friend Natalia’s house to catch a ride to Llucalcari, a rocky beach on the western side of Mallorca. The drive out to the beach wound through mountain villages with stone houses set into the hillside.
We had to hike quite a bit to get to the beach, but it was one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. The style of the beach is “natural” which means most of the sunbathers are completely naked. Right away, we all dove into the water after the sweaty hike.
There is a area where the water reaches the earth and creates a mud that is supposed to be a miracle treatment for the skin, so I spent some of my sunbathing time watching people cover their bodies in the mineral-rich mud. All that was left to do was enjoy a lovely sunset.
