Naturism on Menorca - good to know

While there are no officially designated nudist / naturist beaches - in reality this means nothing :-)

Remoter virgin beaches ( aka Playas Virgines ) and sections of not so remote beaches are where you find textile free sun bathing.

Quieter spots of larger resort beaches will also be used eg Son Bou, Santo Thomas and Cala en Porter.

The northern coast beaches are very varied with coarser sands, offer less shade, slightly larger and mostly exposed to the open sea so will on less calm days and have more waves. The south coast is chracterised by find white sandy bays with pine forest fringed cliffs - as they are from river valleys made of softer limestone.

The basic rule is if the wind is from the north go to the south coast and it will be calm. There is no such thing as a private beach on Menorca . They are all owned by the state and can be used by the public. Actually the entire coast line up to 6 meters inland is public property. However some of the coast line and remote beaches are only accessible by going through private land. You should respect this and keep to the tracks. Some land owners charge a small fee and restrict the visitor numbers which helps keeps the beaches in their pristine state. Dress appropriately and shut gates behind you. Respectful visitors are never turned away.
