Good to know

A bit confusing from timetables. The L41/08 service begins in Es Mercadal, travels to Fornells and runs along the North East coast beach resorts ( Playa den Fornells,Son Parc,Arenal den Castell) before carrying on to Mahon. So you can hop on/off making this a way to visit oter beaches/resorts.

Timetables / Signs may refer to Cala Tirant ( = same as Playa den Fornells / Playas Fornells )

Cala Tirant is the local name for the area before the resort was built.
