This walk starts at Es Castell (hotels, shops, bar restaurants) or if summer buses are in operation, it is possible to start at nearby Sol de l’Est, but this saves less than 1km (½ mile) of road-walking, so it is neither here nor there. Leave the bus stop at Plaça de S’Arraval Vella and continue along the main road from a roundabout. Although there is a GR223 signpost across the roundabout, there is no pavement on that side.

The road has a broad pavement alongside and eventually reaches a crossroads. Sol de l’Est lies to the left, but walk straight ahead as signposted for Fort de Marlborough, passing a cemetery. Reach a signposted junction and note Castillo de San Felipe ahead, an occupied 18th-century fort, but turn right instead. Walk along and down the road, passing fields, then fork right down a broad path flanked by bushes. This is bendy and cobbled and avoids using the road to reach the narrow inlet of Cala de Sant Esteve.
