Estany d'Es Peix is a small lagoon west of La Savina, joined to the open sea by a narrow mouth called Sa Boca. The Guía de Playas describes very fine, slightly muddy sand along about 1,000 metres of shore, width around 10 metres. Depth in the lagoon stays shallow (official tourism says it does not exceed about three metres), and the water often feels warmer than the open Mediterranean.

It is used for gentle water sports: kayaks, small sailing craft, windsurfing beginners. Mooring for small boats lines parts of the shore. Official pages also recommend it for a simple family paddle because of the shallow coves. Do not confuse it with Estany Pudent, where bathing is prohibited and birdlife comes first.

Naturism is listed in the Guía de Playas. In practice the lagoon is a mixed, sometimes busy activity shore next to the port rather than a classic nude beach. Read the setting before undressing; many visitors stay in swimwear, especially near launch points and families.

Parking is available in the La Savina and park fringe area. The Can Marroig interpretation centre is nearby if you want natural-park context before walking the west coast toward Sa Pedrera.
