History and culture · Talayotic villages
Menorca’s largest prehistoric necropolis: about 90 burial caves carved into the cliffs of two joined coves, reached on foot.
The caves were carved into the rock as collective tombs from the end of the Bronze Age and were used for centuries. You can’t go inside them.
The two coves have no facilities: bring water, closed shoes and a charged phone.
