cala blanca minorca


The resort of Cala Blanca lies on the west coast of Minorca, approx 20 km and 45 minutes transfer time from the island's airport at Mahon.

Cala Blanca is one of Minorca's newest resorts, being built in the early 1990's to cater for an increasing demand for holiday accommodation on the island, and it has to be said this is not my favourite resort.

The town itself now stretches from the original beach at Cala Blanca, through a confusing one way system, north towards Ciudadela, until it finally merges with neighbouring Cala Santandria.

The two small beaches are very clean, with fine gently shelving sand, protected by rocky sides, but be aware they can become very busy in high season. Both also offer a fair variety of water sports for hire.

The resort does have a good pedestrianised shopping area in the centre of the town around the Maribel area (see resort map), with a good range of souvenir shops and supermarkets.

A regular bus service runs into Ciudadela every hour during the summer months, and also the more leisurely mini train runs around the resort during the day

As with most resorts in Menorca, evening entertainment is mainly hotel based, however, the resort does have a few music bars and even a disco at Santandria.

In general, Cala Blanca is best suited for those looking for a simple no-frills self catering holiday.
