The sea is beautifully clear and is great for snorkelling. There are sun loungers, sun umbrellas and pedalos for hire on the beach. It is the kayaking centre of Menorca with various companies offering kayaks either for private hire or for guided excursions visiting the numerous caves along the coast line. Boat hire is also available.

There are plenty of restaurants and bars in the centre which is a 10 minute stroll away (just over half a mile). Several of them have a variety of live entertainment in the evening. However the villa is in a tranquil location and usually you cannot hear the music from the centre.

Less than ten minutes walk are the famous Caves of Xoroi, natural caves in a spectacular location half way down the cliffs with bars, which you can visit during the day, enjoy the sunset session or go to the extraordinary discothèque there (open late June to mid September). From the villa you cannot hear the music from the disco.

IN EASY REACH
There is a frequent bus service to the capital of Menorca, Mahon 25 minutes away. There are boat trips around the impressive harbour of Mahón, an open air market two or three days a week, an evening handicraft market with live music once a week, tapas bars and many restaurants. From Mahón there are bus links to most other places on the island including the magnificent old capital Ciutadella.

MENORCA ISLAND PARADISE
Menorca is one of the few places in the world which is both a Biosphere Reserve and a World Heritage site. One of the great attractions of the island is that it hasn't become spoiled unlike so many places around the Mediterranean. 68% of the island is totally protected. Several of the unspoilt beaches of the island are amongst the most beautiful in the world. Menorca has the highest concentration of prehistoric monuments in Europe, some of which are unique to the island and as a consequence has been recognized as a World Heritage site.

Menorca has also been declared a Starlight Reserve and is a wonderful place for stargazing.

In the Spring and Autumn there are many beautiful walks you can enjoy. A short way along the coast is Cales Coves, an unspoilt cove surrounded by prehistoric caves. great to explore or to swim from the shore. In the other direction there is a lovely walk along the fruit tree lined valley behind the beach.

BY CAR
Nowhere is more than an hour's drive from the villa, so with a car you can visit many beautiful beaches, elegant towns, fishing villages, Monte Toro (the island's highest point) old fortresses and prehistoric monuments.
