Which part of Menorca has the best beaches?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The most beautiful area in Menorca is considered to be the north coast, with its secluded and unspoilt coves with crystal-clear waters. They are especially good for snorkelling, diving and boat trips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Family-friendly beaches in Menorca<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Many Menorca beaches are family-friendly not only because of the clear and calm sea, but also because of the shallow white sand beaches. Particularly noteworthy as family-friendly beaches in Menorca are Cala Blanca, Cala Galdana, Platja de Son Bou and Cala en Porter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best beaches in Menorca: My top 12<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Cala Turqueta – perhaps the most beautiful beach in Menorca?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"cala](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-turqueta-dreamstime-33487853-1024x576.jpg\")
One of the most beautiful beaches in Menorca: the beach of Cala Turqueta \u00a9 Dreamstime-33487853<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Cala Turqueta, or Cala En Turqueta, is one of the most beautiful coves in Menorca. Often pictured in travel guides and magazines, Cala Turqueta is one of Menorca’s most famous beaches. You’ll need a rental car to reach the beach, which lies between Cala n’Bosc and Cala Galdana on the south coast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Turqueta” means turquoise and the name says it all: the boats seem to float on the turquoise background, so clear is the water. The beach is surrounded by a fragrant pine forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You should also bring a picnic, because there is nothing here but turquoise blue water and fine sand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cala Macarella & Cala Macarelleta – Paradise in the Southwest<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"cala](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-macarella-1024x576.jpg\")
One of the original beaches in Menorca at Cala Macarella<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n If you can’t decide between Cala Turqueta and Cala de Macarella – no problem, as the two coves are close to each other on the southwest coast of the island. Cala Macarella and Cala Macarelleta can only be reached on foot or by boat in the summer months. From the car park it is a 15 to 20-minute walk through a gorge with a pine forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of the path comes the wow effect: crystal clear, turquoise water and the scent of pine trees in the air. The sea is calm due to its sheltered location and invites you to snorkel and paddle. There are restaurants on site, but they are not cheap. If you like, bring your picnic to Cala de Macarella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Platja Cavalleria: pearl in the north<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"menorca](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-platya-cavalleria-dreamstime-234448621-1024x576.jpg\")
The horseshoe-shaped bay of Platya Cavalleria still offers plenty of space in summer \u00a9 Dreamstime-234448621<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n In the north of Menorca, the 500m-long sandy beach of Cavaller\u00eda is hidden behind dunes. The bay is horseshoe-shaped, befitting the name “Cavalleria”. The golden sand beach is an unspoilt beach, that means no sun umbrellas or chiringuitos. So take a picnic with you! The sea is usually calm here. Very good swimmers could make it to the islets in the bay by swimming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Caution: look where you are stepping in the clear water, there are sea urchins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cala Pregonda: one of the most favourite beaches in Menorca <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"cala](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-pregonda-dreamstime_xxl_78025809-1024x576.jpg\")
Caribbean turquoise sea on the beach of Cala Pregonda in Menorca \u00a9 Dreamstime 78025809<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n The beach at Cala Pregonda is secluded and unspoilt, which is precisely why it is such a popular spot. Cala Pregonda is located in the north of Menorca and is one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. The surrounding rocks and sand are reddish and give this Menorcan beach a special flair. The crystal-clear water is perfect for snorkelling and diving in this cove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The beach at Cala Pregonda has to be earned: Park at Binimel beach and it’s a 20 to 30-minute walk from there. There is not much at the remote beach of Cala Pregonda except a quiet environment, so no restaurants, toilets, showers or other facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cala Tortuga & Cala Presili: Get naked<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"cala](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-tortuga-dreamstime_xxl_35432484-1024x576.jpg\")
Beautifully secluded – the beach at Cala Tortuga in Menorca<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n In the north-east of the island you’ll find two of Menorca’s best beaches, Cala Tortuga and Cala Presili. They are located in the Grau Albufera Nature Park in the north-east of the island. The fact that these bays have retained their naturalness is due to the fact that they can only be reached on foot. The cove is a 15 to 20-minute walk from the car park. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The long bay is framed by rocks and offers no food options. But there is a lot of naked skin to see \ud83d\ude00 , because it is a nudist beach. Alternative beach for friends of free body culture: Cala Binigaus.<\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cala Pilar: pure seclusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"menorca](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-del-pilar-dreamstime-69857719-1024x576.jpg\")
Red rocks frame the Cala del Pinar \u00a9 Dreamstime-69857719<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n This beach is also one of the best beaches in Menorca. Cala Pinar is framed by red rocks. It is very remote and can only be reached after a 30-minute hike through a pine and oak forest. Once you arrive you have a natural beach with crystalline water and peace and quiet here. Disadvantage: There is no infrastructure. Bring everything you need with you. The beach is therefore frequented more by young people and less by families with small children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cala Galdana: the most beautiful beach in Menorca in the south<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"cala](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-galdana-1024x576.jpg\")
You have to think away the hotel, then Cala Galdana is very cozy \ud83d\ude09 <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Cala Galdana is located in the south of Menorca and is easily accessible by rental car. When you see the crescent-shaped bay under the rocky cliffs, you will immediately understand why it is one of the most popular places on the island. This beautiful bay attracts thousands of tourists every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The beach is equipped with everything that makes for a successful day by the sea: sunbed rental, restaurants and beach bars, diving centre. The water is warm and clear and therefore popular with families as well as divers and snorkellers. Definitely one of the most beautiful beaches in Menorca!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cala en Bosch: Perfect for families <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
![\"Cala](\"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/menorca-cala-en-bosch-1024x576.jpg\")
The Cala ‘n Bosch on the southern coast of Menorca<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Between Cala Blanca and Cala Galdana lies the family-friendly beach of Cala en Bosch. The beach is so popular because it has a shallow slope and is guarded by a lifeguard. The white sandy beach invites you to build sandcastles and rentable parasols provide shade. Surrounding it are shops, restaurants, ice cream parlours, a marina, promenade… in short, the entire infrastructure that makes a Menorca holiday so pleasant for holidaymakers and families in particular. On the outskirts of Cala en Bosch there is the Aquarock\/Kartingrock, a water and amusement park for families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking for a family-friendly hotel in Cala en Bosch? The TUI BLUE Grupotel Turquesa Mar<\/a> with childcare is the right accommodation for you:<\/p>\n\n\n
