Cala'n Bosch holidays

Located on Menorca’s southwestern tip, Cala’n Bosch is a purpose-built resort famous for its white-sand beach and vibrant leisure marina. It offers a laid-back Mediterranean atmosphere that appeals equally to families seeking safe swimming and couples looking for sunset dining.

Sun, Sand and Turquoises Waters

The primary draw of the resort is the beach of Cala’n Bosch itself. It is a classic Menorcan cove, featuring fine white sand and clear, shallow water that remains calm thanks to the protective headlands. Because the water stays waist-deep for some distance, it is particularly popular with parents of young children. A short walk around the rocky coastline leads to the neighboring cove of Son Xoriguer, which offers a slightly more rugged feel and a variety of water sports, including windsurfing and kayaking.

The Heart of the Resort: The Marina

Unlike many traditional Spanish towns centered around a church square, life in Cala’n Bosch revolves around its artificial lake-style marina. The waterfront is lined with a wide selection of restaurants, ranging from traditional tapas bars to international pizzerias and fresh seafood grills. In the evenings, the marina becomes the social hub of the resort, where travelers can enjoy a cocktail while watching the yachts navigate the narrow canal leading to the open sea. It is a flat, accessible area perfect for an evening stroll.

Family Fun and Active Days

Beyond the beach, the resort is well-equipped for active travelers. There is a popular waterpark featuring slides and pools that provide a full day of entertainment for children. For those who want to explore the island’s natural beauty, the Cami de Cavalls—an ancient coastal path that encircles Menorca—runs right through the resort. Hiking a section of this trail allows visitors to discover hidden, undeveloped coves that are inaccessible by car. For a more relaxed excursion, glass-bottom boat tours depart regularly from the harbor, offering views of the island's marine life and limestone cliffs.

Discovering Nearby Ciutadella

A holiday in Cala’n Bosch isn't complete without a visit to Ciutadella, the island’s former capital, located just a short bus or taxi ride away. The city offers a striking contrast to the modern resort, featuring narrow medieval streets, grand palaces, and a historic Gothic cathedral. It is the ideal place to shop for authentic Menorcan leather sandals, known as 'avarcas', or to enjoy a 'Pomada'—the local festival drink made of Menorcan gin and cloudy lemonade—in one of the shady plazas.
