Es Pontàs ("The big bridge" in Catalan language) is a natural arch in the southeastern part of the island of Mallorca.[1] The arch is located on the coastline between the Cala Santanyí and Cala Llombards in the municipality of Santanyí.

Overview

Es Pontàs is the recurring theme of the film King Lines, featuring Chris Sharma's first ascent of the hardest deep water solo 9a+ (5.15a) climb in the world.[1][2] The route has since been repeated by Jernej Kruder and Jan Hojer respectively.[3]
