Lovers of authentic places will be delighted to discover Menorca. This Balearic island shines with its calm and its precious natural heritage. The latter, protected by UNESCO as a "Biosphere Reserve" since 1993, is a true ecological oasis covering almost 700 km2.
A land of tradition, tranquillity, but above all relaxation, Menorca has no fewer than 50 beaches, each one more beautiful than the last, such as Macarella, Son Bou and Son Tomas. All the more so as the island enjoys an average of 2694 hours of sunshine per year and only 66 days of rain.
And even if this destination is quite exposed to the Mistral and Tramontana winds, it remains a very popular destination for pleasure boaters cruising around the beautiful coves and sumptuous lagoons that surround the island. So many good reasons to opt for a yacht charter in Menorca!
Discover the northern beaches from the port of Addaya
The best way to explore the magnificent sandy coastline of northern Menorca is undoubtedly by taking advantage of the yacht charter services at Port Addaya. A charming natural harbor in the north of the island, it has modern infrastructure and provides access to the island's magnificent beaches.
It is indeed along the northern coast that the most beautiful wild sandy rivers of Menorca can be found. Sheltered from mass tourism, the northern beaches are generally isolated and quiet. Subject to the whims of the wind, the beaches that embellish the north will also delight water sports enthusiasts and enchant lovers of ecotourism.
The beach of Cala de Sa Toretta, particularly peaceful even in summer, offers an excellent anchorage for hikers wishing to stretch their legs in absolute calm. For lovers of exotic colors, Cala Pregonda is a must. You will be enchanted by this small golden beach protected by a small green setting and gray and white rocks overlooking a crystalline sea.
If you're looking to veer off on a little diving excursion in the north of Menorca, drop anchor not far from Cavalleria beach. Shimmering faithfully on the wild beaches that characterize the north of the island, Platja de Cavalleria is distinguished by its shallow waters, which are ideal for snorkeling.
Enjoy the calm and beautiful views of Fornells
à l'évidence, il n'y a pas que les plages qui suscitent le plus d'intérêt au nord de Minorque. Because while yachtsmen and water sports enthusiasts will find what they are looking for, those who love the landscapes that characterize the Balearic Islands will not regret their vacation on one of the most beautiful islands in Spain.
Would you like to explore these charming fishing villages, all dressed in white and overlooking the electric waters of the Mediterranean? Drop anchor at the small port of Fornells. Located a few minutes from the port of Addaya, the village invites you to stroll through its peaceful streets leading to its charming bright white church or the Tower of Fornells, built in the 18th century. The latter also offers a superb view of the bay.
Gourmets will linger in a tavern to sample its famous lobster stew, the caldereta de langosta. The more adventurous will take advantage of the bay to veer off to the island of Sargantanes, home to a fortification dating from the time of English rule.
Nature hike in a Biosphere Reserve
Holidaymakers wishing to try their hand at green tourism will enjoy their little getaway in the heart of the S'Albufera des Grau Natural Park. Recognized as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1995, this vast wetland is adorned with a magnificent lagoon andlush greenery, home to more than 90 species of birds and a wide variety of Mediterranean plants.
Take advantage of your stopover at the park to immortalize the Addaia and Mongofre salt marshes or the Favàritx lighthouse, which stands out in its lunar landscape.
