Calm turquoise waters skirted by a white sand beach and tall limestone cliffs; Cala Galdana is a little piece of paradise

• Location: Cala Galdana is located on the south coast of Menorca. This horseshoe shaped cove is surrounded by limestone cliffs and lush woodlands. The situation is truly stunning and Cala Galdana has become symbolic of Menorca’s raw beauty. Cala Galdana is only about 20km from Mahon Airport.
• Weather:
Southern Menorca enjoys hot summers and mild winters. With around 300 days of sun a year and average summer temperatures in the upper 20’s, the weather in Menorca is fantastic year round.
• The Beach
: Think white sand beach, gorgeous scenery, clear blue waters, all sheltered by surrounding cliffs. Despite it’s popularity, Cala Galdana’s beach has an un-spoilt and secluded feel making this a prime location for quality relaxation.
• Cala Galdana resort suits the interests and needs of a variety of different types of holiday makers. For families, the peaceful setting and safe beaches make Cala Galdana a perfect destination for a family holiday. For couples, the idyllic surroundings, classy restaurants, and laid back atmosphere make this a romantic setting for quality time away. For younger visitors, large scale nightlife is a bit thin on the ground, however, between the live music bars, various entertainment including a nearby waterpark, and of course the beach, younger visitors are sure to be more than satisfied with Cala Galdana’s laid back vibe.
• To better explore the natural beauty of this area of the island, be sure to take a walk along the coast. You’ll come across hidden coves and gorgeous countryside. Alternatively, head for the National Park where you’ll find endless trails leading into dense, cool woodlands.

• Ciudadela: For a change of scene, head over to nearby Ciudadela, where you’ll find a selection of restaurants and bars. Nightlife here is slightly livelier than in Cala Galdana. During the day, Ciudadela is also a good place for shopping, with its variety of shops and markets.
• The Crazy Kids Disco: Upon their return, many families have recommended this evening event for the little ones.

Top Tips you shouldn't miss

• The beach at Cala Galdana is excellent, just perfect for children of all ages. There's plenty of shaded areas for the little ones. Take a walk along the Gorge , it's absolutely fantastic!more Beaches & Sights Top Tips
• We would recommend the Meson Murciano Restaurant opposite the Flora Mar Aparthotel. It is an excellent restaurant run by brothers, they are very welcoming, excellent service and are always pleased to see you. more Food Top Tips
• Restaurants to recommend - C'an Bini which is underneath apartments 1 -3, excellent 3 course dinner for 16 Euros, or Cala Mitjana past the Cala Galdana villas and apartments, excellent home made sweets, hard to find in most restaurants. Recommend a visit to Cala Mitjana beach, next bay along from Cala Galdana, take food and drink as nothing there, the Minorcans go there a lot so must be good. Windy road to get there and a far walk form car park but worth it. Would also recommend a trip around Mahon harbour by boat, 10 Euros for adult for 1hr 10 min trip. Glass bottom boat to see the fish if weather good. more Entertainment Top Tips
• The Cala Galdana beach is something else, what can I say except STUNNING! For the evenings, the "Black & White" bar is great, Sam, the barman gives a very warm welcome to all and over the years has become a very good friend. more Bars, Pubs & Clubs Top Tips
