Son Bou

Menorca is known, among many other things, for having beautiful coves. The type of cove changes dramatically depending on where you’re in the north or south of the island.
All the coves are spectacular and have fine sand and clear blue water, and, miraculously, are still not over-developed.

Well, since Menorca is known for its coves, I wanted to talk about one of the most unique coves on the island: Son Bou. It’s a length of coast about 3km long that is quite different from the rest of the island.

It has some of the best sunsets I can recall. After a full day at the beach, it’s difficult to go back home, so there’s the sunset to keep you there a least a little while longer.

It’s one of the Spanish beaches that has won the coveted blue flag. It’s 2,000 meters long and about 120 meters wide. The sand is white and very fine. Perfect, in other words.

100% recommendable.
