Beaches and coves · Hidden coves
Menorca’s most famous coves: white sand and turquoise water between cliffs and pines. Macarelleta, smaller, is 10 minutes away on foot.
Macarella has a beach bar and is wider; Macarelleta, to the west, is reached by a 10-minute path and is more secluded.
Along the Camí de Cavalls you can walk there from Cala Galdana (about 45 minutes) or from Cala Turqueta.
In summer, take one of the first buses: by mid-morning the cove is full.
