Cala en Porter

Cala En Porter is located in the Alaior area, along the southeast coast of Menorca.

The cove is approximately 300 meters deep, lies close to the town of Cala en Porter, and is a fjord surrounded by high rocky cliffs, with a stream flowing into it.
As you enter the bottom of the cove, looking to the right, you can see a small cluster of white houses and buildings with red roofs, set in the relief in front.
Instead, Mediterranean vegetation towers on the left cliff.
The cove is clearly visible even when one is sailing on the open sea, thanks to the presence of the Torre Nova, located one mile northwest of the entrance gate.

The seabed consists of sand and seaweed and is good tenors.

The best place for boaters to anchor is in the central part of the bay, about 150 meters from the beach, where the depth of the seabed is between 3 and 5 meters.

Because of the lack of protection from southerly winds and the shallow waters, it is not recommended to anchor in this bay at night and on very windy days.

At the bottom of the bay is the beach, with fine, light-colored sand, a fair width and a gathered shape.
Beach equipment, such as beach chairs and umbrellas, can be rented in this area. In addition, those on the beach can use toilets, showers and a first aid station.

In the summer season, the area is provided with a surveillance service with lifeguards.
Around the beach you can find some hotels, clubs, restaurants and businesses.
Access to the beach can also be easily done by land, starting from the center of the resort of Cala en Porter, or you can get there by car or public transport.

Alaior and its surroundings are famous for the Calescoves necropolis, prehistoric villages, and the early Christian basilica of Son Bou.
