Why this trip
A bay like a half moon, pine forest on the cliffs and turquoise water: Cala Galdana on the south coast of Menorca is a calm answer for families with children to the bustle of other Balearic islands. The water at the beach is shallow and sheltered, so small children paddle in the shallows. At the beach of Cala Galdana the routes between accommodation, restaurant and water come close together, which makes everyday life easier for families. A little further on, on the coastal path through the pine forest, lies Cala Macarella, a bay with white sand that is worth a short walk, provided children like to hike.
Both beaches are popular in summer, so families do best to go early in the morning. From April to June and from September to October it is quieter, but the water is still warm enough. Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona, Ibiza and Valencia are neighbouring destinations for a combination, but Menorca is also suitable on its own for two weeks. The flight takes about two hours, and entry is visa-free.
If you travel with toddlers, you will appreciate the calm in the bay and the absence of noisy roads. Sun protection and hats are important.
Getting there
The family travels from Zurich or Basel-Mulhouse, and Swiss Vibes plans connection times so that the children have breaks in between.
