Menorca has many beautiful lookout points, and one of them, in the island's north, is Cap de Cavalleria. Visit at sunrise or sundown for the most spectacular views. The beautiful Faváritx Lighthouse also offers lovely coastal views of quaint little roads which end in crystal clear bays.
Do & See
Many visitors immediately head east through the flower-freckled meadow land of the interior to the resorts of Cala en Forcat, Cala en Bosch and Cala Galdana. However, step off the beaten track and you will be rewarded — Mahón (or Maó), an interesting capital with a turbulent history, saw many sea conflicts as the Spanish, British and French grappled for control of this strategically important naval base. The influences of all three cultures, as well as the native Baleriac one, can be seen here today.
