We are delighted to share with you the names of some of the most emblematic beaches and coves in Menorca. Let’s find out if you know any of them…
First in our list is the beach of Arenal de Son Saura, a white sandy beach located on the north coast of Menorca, next to the urbanisation of Son Parc. A safe turquoise seawater beach, perfect to enjoy with children, due to the shallow seashore waters. If you also enjoy playing golf, then you can visit the Golf course of Son Parc, the only golf course in Menorca.
Two other spectacular beaches are Cala Mitjana and Cala Mitjaneta, unspoilt, with crystal clear waters, surrounded by pine trees. Cala Mitjana is located at the end of the gorge and to its right, looking at the horizon, is Cala Mitjaneta, a small bay that depending on the winter storms may or may not have sand.
Our fourth recommendation, and unlike the previous two locations, is not the customary white sandy beach, this beach is known as Cala Llucalari and can be considered a secret beach as it is rarely frequented, located a few hundred metres from Son Bou, surrounded by high cliffs. Although it is often full of seaweed, this does not tarnish its immense charm.
Our last mention is for Cala Algairens, also known as La Vall, located on the north of the island, near Ciutadella, within the area declared as Natural Area of Special Interest. It is an exquisite virgin cove with easy access, ideal for picnics with family and friends. The contrasts, generated by the surrounding bushes, white sand and the blue waters, join to create a picturesque landscape.
If you do visit any of these bays, do not forget to take a picture and tag us @discoverymenorca on social media.
Enjoy paradise!
