Located on the south shore of Spanish island Menorca, Cala Galdana offers one of the best beach locations in the Mediterranean Sea. Cala Galdana serves as a tropical resort escape for anyone who has relaxation on the top of their priority list for holiday. There is not a huge element of nightlife in the area, making it a little more child-friendly than some of the more developed resort areas on Menorca.
Attractions
Horses are a big part of the culture in Menorca and as such visitors will find the opportunity to ride and visit stables that display some of the island's finest specimens of Menorcan horses. Tourists interested in shopping should check out the open air markets on Saturday mornings when local artisans offer up their handcrafted wares. The tropical beach at Cala Gladana is the biggest feature of the city with pristine white sands and stunning view of the gentle-sloped, crystal clear water, contrasted with the lush wild greenery that grows along the rugged and hilly shoreline on the surrounding area.
