Platja de Na Patana or Arenal de ses Assussenes is a sandy beach on the north coast of the Spanish Balearic island of Mallorca . It is located in the north of the municipality of Santa Margalida on the Badia d'Alcúdia ("Bay of Alcúdia"), between the towns of Can Picafort and Son Serra de Marina .
Location and description
The beach of Na Patana is about 500 meters southeast of Son Bauló, a district of the town-like settlement of Can Picafort, which is characterized by tourism . It is part of the approximately 1100 hectare nature reserve Dunes de Son Real (type ANEI - Àrea natural d'especial interès).
Together with the beaches of S'Arenal d'en Casat and Platja de Son Real further to the south-east as well as the rocky sections in between, it forms the coastline of the Son Real landscape , a former estate between the torrents Torrent de Son Bauló and Torrent de Son Real . On the coastal plain of the Son Real estate , dunes could form, which are held in place by low vegetation.
At the Platja de Na Patana , the sand forms an approximately 200 meter long and up to 50 meter wide beach area. The beach is bordered by a low rocky coast, which separates it in the northwest by the rocky promontory Na Patana (also Punta de Na Patana ) from the beach of Son Bauló at the mouth of the Torrent de Son Bauló .
In the southeast there is a rocky section that extends to the Punta des Fenicis peninsula , where the Son Real necropolis heralds a bygone culture. The area behind the beach of Na Patana belongs to the Finca pública Son Real , a public estate with extensive pine forests .
Access
