Detailed itinerary

1

The bathing stop is usually done in this cove, according to occupation and weather conditions. Here you can enjoy an exceptional swim in the turquoise waters of Cala Turqueta, snorkel and explore one of the most famous and beautiful coves in Menorca.

2

This is the second bath stop. This beach was originated by a "U" shaped sea inlet and the mouth of the Torrent de sa Torre. It is a difficult access beach, to get there you have to walk for an hour and a half from Cala Mitjana. So the best way to enjoy it is by boat. At this stop we will have an aperitif and try the paddle-surf that we have on board!

3

Cala Macarelleta is another of the beaches that usually appears on Menorca's postcards. Its sand is fine and white, and the waters are turquoise blue

4
Stop 4

This virgin beach is the neighboring one of Macarelleta, a little bigger, highly frequented in summer and with postcard views

5

Cala trebalúger is very isolated and difficult to access on foot or by any other means. This is considered one of the pearls of the south. We will find here a white sand beach and turquoise waters accompanied by a small river that flows into the sea.

6

One of the most famous virgin beaches in the south of Menorca. Son Saura is a beach with great amplitude, divided into two parts and easily accessible although quite frequented in summer times.

7

This will be our starting point. Cala Galdana is one of the most famous coves and visited by tourists from all over the world. It is quite extensive and has a wide range of services without losing the natural appeal of its waters and cliffs

8
Stop 8

It is the neighbor of Cala Galdana. Together with Cala Mitjaneta, they are part of one of those landscapes that leave no one indifferent. Virgin beaches and crystal clear water.
This area has a diversity of fauna: The peregrine falcon, different species of bat, frogs, toads and shrews inhabit this paradisiacal stretch of coastline.

9
Stop 9

It is the little sister of Cala Mitjana, it is in the same conditions although it is a little more restored from the wind and they are perfect areas to anchor on a white sandy bottom.

10

This coastal corner results from a sea inlet that when touching land gives rise to a beach, one facing west and a small sleeve of sea without sand to the east, separated by a rocky wedge-shaped protrusion.

This isolated and virgin seabed is characterized by having tiny dimensions, a slope of fine white sand, a leafy pine forest near the shore, a dune system occupying the rear, exposure to winds from the southeast-south-southwest, light breeze, calm water, bottom of sand and algae, gentle slope, as well as low influx of bathers.
In this cove it is not advisable to anchor since near the natural mouth there are some reefs known as "Escull".

11

A sea inlet in the shape of a quarter circle has originated this beach that is characterized by having tiny dimensions; cantiles of a certain height that flank it, covered with a thick pine forest that reaches the first line of the coast; a slope of fine white sand; exposure to southeast-south-southwest winds; a light breeze; calm and crystal clear water, as well as a low influx of local bathers and tourists.
Marine and underwater conditions are optimal for anchoring boats, as long as they do not blow air masses from the south, since they cause strong waves as they are a very open roadstead.
