A promenade has been built some years back. This means the traffic has been removed from the water front area. Now it is popular for bicycling and walking. Along this stretch, you find very many small bars, restaurants and typical tourist shops. This is of course giving the area a special character. Big efforts have been made, and are on going to maintain the area to a good standard. The main attraction is the beach, but more and more find it good fun to rent a bicycle and ride along the bicycle route from Arenal to Palma de Mallorca.
