Cala En Porter

This was one of Menorca's first beach resorts whose popularity with holidaymakers has endured for over 30 years. The wide sandy beach, framed by cliffs either side, leads down to crystal clear waters ideal for swimming or snorkelling and pedaloes are also available for hire. The beach is safe for children, as indeed is the whole resort, which appeals greatly to families.

One of Menorca's most popular attractions is very nearby: The Caves of Xoroi are situated on a cliff edge offering stunning views by day, before becoming a popular music club by night.

The town itself has a good selection of shops and restaurants, plus Mahon is only 20 minutes away using the local bus service.

Cales Coves (1.3 km) - show on map

This is certainly a journey for the adventurous! Cales Coves features over 100 Bronze Age caves (some of which are still inhabited by latter day hippies) carved into the cliff looking out to a sheltered bay. Cave painting and carvings are all to be found in this fascinating area. The beach is pebbly, there are no services and with very limited access, this probably isn't a place for those seeking pure relaxation - although it is a chance to tap history and beauty in one breathtaking location. To get there, go to Son Vitamina then either walk (approx. 30 mins) or take a robust vehicle.
