Where bathing becomes an unforgettable experience
It's Grau is an old fishing village with a long bay jutting inland. Since this is very flat and well protected, it is particularly suitable for children. In the spring, the water here is already warmer than on the other beaches. The village caters to tourists: there are cafes, restaurants and beach bars. However, it has retained its original character.
Cala Mesquida is the favorite bay of the "Mahonese". It can be reached via a dirt road that leads past a massive watchtower on a ledge. The bay has a slightly darker sandy beach and has an extensive snorkeling area.
Punta Prima is a large, lively holiday resort with a beautiful, fine, white sandy beach. Water sports facilities are also available here.
Cala Galdana is, it is said, the most beautiful bay on the island. A fine, white-sandy, semi-circular bay in the midst of a fantastically beautiful landscape. A footpath left and right along the bay leads to the small, undeveloped bays of Macarella, Mijana and Trebaluger. These are really worth the walk, because they are completely secluded and very idyllic.
son bou is one of the longest sandy beaches on the island and therefore ideal for long walks on the beach. This beach offers a wide range of water sports, bars, shops, which is probably due to the large resort there. There is also a very nice pool area with a long water slide. Even if Son Bou is sometimes very busy in midsummer, it is one of the most beautiful beaches in Menorca.
