General info:

The legend says that a man called Xoroi came from the sea and found refuge in this cave. Soon after his arrival robberies started to happen in the area. Also a bride was stolen. One day the villagers found Xoroi and the woman from the cave. Surrounded and powerless, Xoroi decided to jump to his death and the woman returned to the village.

That was the leged of Xoroi in short. Today the cave serves as a panorama coctailbar&disco. The cave is carved almost on top of the tall cliff and provides an unbelievable view from the cave to the open ocean. The bar offers a selection of cocktails, ambient music in the evening and breathtaking views.

In the summertime the day of the bar is divided as follows:
Day: from 11’30h to 16’30h.
Chillout session: from 17’00h to 21’30h
Night: Starts at 23:00

Getting there:

There is parking lot on top of the cliff just next to the cave.

Costs:

The entrance fee is around 15€ including one drink.

Interesting places nearby

Cala en Bosc

Cala en Bosc is a spacious beach a walking distance from the town center. The beach will be crowded but despite the everyday crowds, it is kept pretty clean.

Cala Fustam

Cala Fustam is a tiny beach away from the crowds. The setting is beautiful with the white sandy beach located at the end of a narrow cove.

Cala des Talaier

Cala des Talaier is a picturesque small beach in a small bay with calm waters. The turquoise crystal clear water makes you forget that you are not in paradise but close to civilization in Spain.

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 en Turqueta

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.

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.
