Cala d'en Serra

[1] The beach of Cala d’en Serra is a small horseshoe bay with a further satellite coves near by.

[3] This building project was started in 1969 by acclaimed Catalan Architect Josep Lluís Sert, who was exiled in the United States at the time, was planned to be a luxury hotel resort complex.

Many islanders consider the half constructed hotel a blight on an area of outstanding natural beauty while others see the project as an important piece of cultural heritage, since Sert has now been elevated to one of Catalonia's most acclaimed architects.

In the year 2000 plans were drawn up to complete the complex in the style intended by Sert, for use as an exclusive tourist attraction and Thalassotherapy centre.

These plans were also eventually abandoned, mainly due to the world banking crisis and the subsequent downturn in the island tourist economy.
