"A relaxed, small-resort feel and tiny, jewel-like coves … the perfect family holiday is ready and waiting in modern Cala Blanca. "
Sometimes the best things in life come in small, bite-sized parcels. And once you've come to Cala Blanca, you'll know it's true.
Perfect for a relaxed family holiday, this small modern resort enjoys an impressive position – just south of Cuidadela on Menorca's picturesque west coast. Clustered round a centre of shops, bars and pubs, its beachside restaurants and hotels front a strand of tiny, dainty coves astonishing for their beauty. Here, dazzling waters shine like jewels in their rocky settings, while their calm, shallow waves tumble lightly onto white sands. If you've got small children, it's the kind of safe seaside playground that you dream about. And if you're into snorkelling and dabbling around with a few gentle watersports, you won't be disappointed either. Just grab your beach stuff, jump on the mini-train trundling along the shoreline, find your perfect cove and enjoy.
Away from these little hunks of heaven, there's a good selection of eateries, bars and shops to fill up your time and gradually empty your wallet, many boasting gorgeous vistas over Cuidadela. Instead of just enjoying this lovely town from a distance, make sure you experience its charms close-up. Hop on a bus and spend a memorable day shopping and eating out in its sun-drenched cobbled streets and harbourside. Alternatively, go discover some of Menorca's peaceful interior - a land of rich, green landscapes, whitewashed villages and strange prehistoric stone monuments.
Come sundown, evenings are what you make of them in Cala Blanca. Whether it's a quiet waterfront meal, sampling Cala's sociable bars or indulging in the livelier haunts of nearby Santandria – it's easy to finish your perfect day with a perfect night.
