Beaches Playa En Fornells
Local beach
Playa den Fornells beach is very natural with substantial sand dunes stretching inland. It is perhaps not the classical holiday resort beach but we like it very much. The main larger beach is reached via a wooden walkway. There is a small sand beach closer to the Holiday resort for the less mobil - but it may get more crowded. Set in a big bay on the north coast Platja de Fornells is a typical example of keeping beaches more natural. DO NOT wander into the dune systems! - Playa En Fornells Beach will be a big focus, but there's more...

Family Snorkelling
The pristine waters of Menorca are a real holiday memory. They are amazingly clear so even with just a simple snorkel you will see lots, not murky haze. And because the water is in such good condition you'll see lots of fish too. Many, many of the resort beaches have shallow sandy bottoms fringed with rocks, ideal for young snorkellers. Organised trips can make a great family day out with as a Snorkel Safari or stop off as part of a Boat excusrions. There are also marine reserves around Menorca where the marine life is even more abundent.

Cycle Route Ideas
Like most of Menorca this is more Natural, so don't expect too many cycle lanes. Better to use the off road tracks and marked routes as the little roads that make up much of the country network have lots of blind corners.
