If you are looking for quiet beaches in Menorca, away from the crowds and with a natural environment that will surprise you, Es Canutells is a gem you can not miss. Located on the south-east coast of the island, just 10 kilometers from Mahón, this small cove combines beauty, history and serenity in equal parts.
A beach hidden between cliffs
Cala Canutells is nestled in a narrow sea inlet between Punta de na Picada and Cap Gros, surrounded by impressive cliffs up to 70 meters high covered with Mediterranean vegetation. At its feet, a small beach of light sand of about 60 meters offers an intimate and little frequented corner, perfect to disconnect.
The sea in Es Canutells is a hypnotic turquoise blue, with crystal clear waters and fine sandy bottom, ideal for swimming and relaxing. On both sides of the cove, rocks and natural formations hide ancient caves that were once used as dwellings, adding an archaeological and mysterious touch to the landscape.
How to get to Es Canutells
You can get there by road following the signs from Mahón and taking the detour to Sant Climent, a quiet town near the airport. Upon arrival you will find a free parking lot, and from there, an access by stairs will take you directly to the cove.
