Cala Blanca Menorca Beach

Cala Blanca Overview

One of the newest towns and resorts in Menorca, Cala Blanca was built as recently as the 1990’s to cater for the increasing tourism industry on the island.

Featuring a beautiful small sandy beach nestled within a rocky cove. Characterised by fine golden sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters.

Further information on Cala Blanca Menorca can be found below.

Cala Blanca Beach

The Cala Blanca beach is protected by small cliffs and larger pine trees and set slightly back from the ocean, perfect for young families. What welcomes you is the golden sandy beach with a sun loungers and umbrellas to keep you in the shade. A few restaurants and bars nearby to keep you well fed and watered.

With the rock edges and shallow waters, this makes for a great place to enjoy a spot of snorkerling.

One downside of the beach is during the peak season of August it may get quite busy.

The Cala Blanca beach also provides toilets, car parking and good mobility access.

Cala Blanca Amenities

It’s worth mentioning what other services the Menorcan resort of Cala Blanca provides.

There are a few smaller supermarkets which provide plenty of choice as well as summer clothing and beachwear. Supermercado Julia and Supermercat Sa Pupoa should provide your basic necessities but may prove to be quite expensive when compared to elsewhere.

Therefore, we recommend the larger supermarkets. Which you will need to head to Ciutadella, supermarkets such as Lidl or Eroski can be found there are provide much better value for money, great for larger shops. Various supermarkets are featured on our Menorca supermarkets guide, so head there for further information.

The Parque Acuático Aquarock is further south in the Cala en Bosc resort if you wanted something different for a day out. There’s also a Go-karting track here too that features on our Menorca Go Karts guide.

Scooters can be hired from Alquiler Moto Menorca in the town centre. However we have our in-depth Menorca car hire guide that includes scooter hire options too.

Cala Blanca Nightlife

The nightlife in Cala Blanca is a somewhat tame affair. But then again, you don’t come to Menorca for its crazy nightlife.

However, there are some bars in Cala Blanca to enjoy in the evenings. Such as the Moonlight Cocktail Bar right be the beach, or the beautiful Marea Beach Club sat just on the rocks overlooking the sea.

Further in the centre of Cala Blanca you have a few more to pass the night away. Such as Laurel Hardy, Jenny’s Bar, or the plush Jigger Cooking Cocktail. Or the The Blarney Stone which has more of a pub style ambiance and cuisine.

For a later night your best bet is head to Ciutadella which is only a short bus ride, or taxi away. Probably too far on foot. Further information on Cala Blanca taxis and buses in Cala Blanca can be found further below.
