seven-night holidays available from \u00a3503 per person<\/a> – making it a great choice for both couples and families looking to keep costs in check.<\/p>\nAccording to TUI expert Jan Kroeger, who lives on the island, these are the beaches that should top every traveller\u2019s list.<\/p>\n
Macarella and Macarelleta<\/p>\n
Macarella and Macarelleta are among the island\u2019s most celebrated spots, tucked into a secluded west-coast bay.<\/p>\n
Kroeger said: \u201cThe island\u2019s most celebrated spots are Macarella and its little sister Macarelleta, which are tucked into a secluded west-coast bay where powder-white sand meets pine-framed cliffs and crystal-clear water. Accessed by foot or boat from Cala Galdana, both spots really embody Menorca\u2019s reputation for virgin beaches which are protected, undeveloped stretches of coastline that feel like a genuine hidden paradise. <\/p>\n
“Macarella is also one of the standout stops along the Cam\u00ed de Cavalls which is the island\u2019s iconic coastal trail. It\u2019s the only bay on the route with a beach bar so it\u2019s a great stop for walkers to rest for a drink or a light bite.\u201d<\/p>\n
Son Bou<\/p>\n
Son Bou offers one of the easiest and most accessible beach days on the island.<\/p>\n
Kroeger said: \u201cFor families, Son Bou offers a completely different kind of bliss. The beach is a long three-kilometre stretch of soft golden sand paired with shallow waters ideal for children and paddlers. It has some lovely amenities including restaurants, shops and water sports rentals, so it\u2019s great for long, easy beach days that require zero planning.\u201d<\/p>\n
Santo Tom\u00e1s<\/p>\n
Those who prefer peace and quiet will find it at Santo Tom\u00e1s, a smaller, scenic spot surrounded by nature.<\/p>\n
Kroeger said: \u201cTravellers seeking real serenity will love Santo Tomas. It is a small pine-backed beach with clear waters and it\u2019s the ideal beach for those wanting to fully switch off with no disruptions. It would be the perfect setting for reading, floating, sun-lounging and stretching out in pure bliss. <\/p>\n
“As you drive from the heart of the island along the small, winding road toward Santo Tom\u00e1s, it\u2019s lined with huge trees which create a beautiful natural tunnel. You then suddenly pop out the other side and all you can see is golden sand, rich greenery and the deep Mediterranean sea.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cavalleria Beach<\/p>\n
For something more rugged, Cavalleria Beach offers a completely different landscape on the island\u2019s north coast.<\/p>\n
Kroeger said: \u201cFor people who are after something more rugged and dramatic, Cavalleria Beach on Menorca\u2019s northern side is full of wild beauty. Its red-hued sands and untouched landscape make it a great spot for snorkellers and nature-lovers. <\/p>\n
“Just above the beach there is also a short path that leads to a panoramic viewpoint with picnic tables which is a great spot for taking in the coastline before you head down to the beach. And if you\u2019ve got some more time, you could pair your visit with a stop at the Far de Cavalleria lighthouse, which offers stunning sea views and sunset-style photos.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Britons ready to lounge on sun-soaked beaches by crystal-clear waters this summer may not need to travel far…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5420,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[17,357,3713],"class_list":{"0":"post-5419","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-spain","8":"tag-spain","9":"tag-travel","10":"tag-tui"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5419"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5419\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5419"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
