Es Grau, flamingos, kayak and Illa d'en Colom
- Morning, flamingos:: walk from the beach to the lagoon (5 to 10 minutes). Best spots: Sa Gola and the bird hides. Best time: early morning or evening
- Kayak:: first hug the coast to the right for small caves and snorkel spots, then cross to Illa d'en Colom
- On the island:: Cala Tamarells, the best beach, for a swim, a snorkel and a relax
- Eat:: Bar Es Moll (simple, local, quick) or Tamarindos (great view, ideal for lunch or sunset)
Faro de Cavalleria, cave and beach
- Lighthouse:: park nearby and take in the views over the north coast

- Plateau, east side:: right of the lighthouse, a 5 to 10 minute walk, quiet and panoramic
- Beach:: Platja de Cavalleria, red sand and wilder water
Extra tip: Cala Macarella
Skip it in high season, when it is busy and parking is hard. Better to go early and hike in — or, the best option, hire a boat.
Also worth it near Es Castell
- Boat excursions to Illa del Llatzeret and Illa del Rei
- La Mola fortress and the Castillo de San Felipe
- The military museum, Museo Histórico Militar de Menorca
- Coastal walks around the harbour
Good to know
- Mornings are the best time, calm and with little wind
- North coast: wilder, but quieter · South coast: prettier water, but busier
- Always bring water, sun protection and a snorkel
- Check the wind, which matters on kayak days
