Cala en Porter was one of Menorcas first beach resorts and its popularity has lasted until this day. This beach where also the town got its name is spacious one with tall cliffs on both sides creating a dramatic backdrop.

As typical in Menorca, the water is crystal clear and ideal for snorkeling. Pedalboats and umbrellas are also available. The beach is popular among families, which is no wonder considering that it is located right next to the town with restaurants, shops and hotels nearby.
