General info:

Cala en Turqueta is a ridiculously beautiful Menorcan white sandy beach in a picturesque setting. The right side of the beach is dominated by limestone rock but not in as dramatic way as for example in Cala Macarella&Macarelleta. The rocks here are shallower.

The water is fantastically clear and also rather shallow so the beach is good for families with children. There are no facilities so bring everything you need.

The tour boats stop by near this beach occasionally so if you want to avoid those, be informed.

Getting there:

The free car park is about 850m from the beach. There is also a paid car park 120m from the beach but when we went there it was not open. So better prepare for some walking. And as the car parks are likely to be rather full…

Costs:

The beach is free.

Cales Coves

Cales Coves is an interesting option for those seeking to get away from the crowds. The “beaches “ are not very spectacular and basically not suitable for sunbathing and relaxing in the way we know it.

Cala Mitjana

Cala Mitjana is one of the most beautiful beaches in Menorca and in our opinion rivals with Cala Macarella&Macarelleta for the beast beach of Menorca title.

Cala Macarella & Macarelleta beach

This twin beach is among the 2 best beaches in Menorca, together with the Cala Mitjana. Cala Macarella & Macarelleta are the subject of around 50% of the postcards sold in Menorca.
