Cala Mitjana is a sandy cove on Menorca’s southern coast, near Ferreries. Pine trees and limestone cliffs surround its clear turquoise water, which is calm and sheltered from swell. Follow forest trails to the shore, then swim or snorkel along the coast. There are also places to jump into the water from the cliffs, but take care around the rocky edges. The beach has little natural shade and no nearby shops, so bring what you need for the day.
The cove and its surroundings
Cala Mitjana lies on Menorca’s southern coast. Its white sand meets clear water, with pine forest and limestone cliffs around the cove. The sheltered setting keeps the water calm, making it suitable for swimming and other water activities.
A forest trail leads down to the beach. Viewpoints above the cove give a wider view of the coastline. Mitjaneta is around the headland; reaching it requires a swim or a hike.
Swimming and preparing for the beach
You can snorkel along the shore, and some people jump into the water from the cliffs. Check the water and rocks carefully before swimming or jumping, and watch for jellyfish.
There are no shops nearby, and the beach has little shade. Pack water, food and an umbrella before setting out. Local sellers may have fruit and drinks on site, but do not rely on finding supplies there.
