Location

See and Do
Menorca Holiday Tips
There are some fabulous quality restaurants in the pretty neighbouring villages of Torret and S'Ullastrar.
There are delightful narrow track lanes all around the north of Binisafuller to explore - even the thwack of a cricket bat on ball at the nearby Menorca Cricket Club along the road to Biniparrell and Llucmacanes.
Cala Binipartrix - Valley and Virgin Beach
Along the coast between Es Canutells and Binibeca lies the pretty 'hidden' cove of Cala Binipartrix. A limestone gorge with a sandy beach at the end in a sheltered cove. Park and 10 min walk through the gorge bottom to the beach. (as a virgin beach there may well be piles of dead seaweed so take a little 'clearing tool' - if you don't like walking over it!
Day-time Entertainment
Binibequer Vell
An attractive and well done mock up of a ' traditional fishing village' with small selection of (evening) Restaurants and Bars. Though it can be loud if you are staying there as voices and particularly ladies high heels! fill the narrow passage ways. There is also  Bar with a pool to use if you buy a drink (located in the commercial centre)
Relax while children enjoy a swim? a pool is available at the bar restaurant Es Furat and is free providing you buy a drink or snack.
Shopping & Eating
At Binibequer Vell there is a small array of souvenir and clothes shops in pleasant surroundings, a suprisingly large supermarket, cash point. Cala Torret at the eastern end is a mock 'fishermans' apartments complex in a tiered pedestrian area set above the rocks. There are several restaurants of varying quality alongside and inside the Binibequer Vell commercial centre all in the same location. Cala Torret at the other end of the resort also offers a handful of Bar Restaurants, a mini supermarket overlooking the rocky shoreline and perhaps offers better value.
Menorca Holiday Tips
There is large hypermarket in nearby Sant Lluis and a smaller very popular supermarket Sa Botega at S'Ullastrar, on the way to Sant Lluis.
For Self caterers, visit the large Eroski supermarket at the Poligno outside Sant Lluis on the road towards Mahon. The independent Cafe Bar has not only an excellent value and tasty Menu del Dias/Buffet (witness many locals at the tables! ) but you can take it away too!
There are some lovely drives along idylic narrow country roads through the country side to the villages of Llucamanens and Torret. Torret is picture postcard pretty, leave the car and just walk through it. There are also some highly regarded restaurants ( Sa Pedrera des Pujol, Sa Parereta d'en Doro, Pan y Vino ) . Llucamances is a pretty hamlet and just a further short trip to El Grill, a favourite rustic Bar Restaurant (in old farmhouse ) on the airport access road ( you passed it as you left the airport !) where you will find some of the islands best grilled meat dishes and chill out terrace for evenings.
Visit La Rueda Bar-Restaurant at Sant Lluis, which has a counter with nearly 3 meters of delicous Tapas.
