1. Enjoy the best views of the bay

   Head to the lookout point at the top of the cliff at the end of Sa Punta Avenue for a breathtaking panorama of the bay at any time of day, though sunset brings the most spectacular show of red, orange and purple across the sky.

2. Discover the Balearic flavours

   The area's restaurants serve up excellent Mediterranean dishes built around fish, fresh vegetables and seafood. Try the famous lobster caldereta, Maó cheese, Menorcan cold meats, rubiol and oliaigua, and finish with a sweet ensaïmada pastry or a glass of Pomada Xoriguer, the traditional gin and cloudy lemonade drink.

3. Try a water sport

   Rent a boat to explore secluded coves along the coast, or spend a morning trying kayaking, SUP, snorkelling, pedalos, windsurfing or jet skiing straight from the beach in front of your villa.

4. Beach-hop to Macarella and Macarelleta

   These two stunning, smaller coves west of Cala Galdana are protected from big swells by surrounding cliffs, with white sand and turquoise water. Reach them by walking path or by boat, but arrive early in high season to secure a good spot.

5. Hike or cycle the Camí de Cavalls

   Sections 13 and 14 of this historic coastal path are among the most popular, taking you on to Trebalúger, Macarella and La Macarelleta on foot or by bike, through pine woods with the Mediterranean never far from view.

6. Immerse yourself in local culture

   Visit the ruined Castell de Santa Águeda, explore the prehistoric settlement of Naveta de la Cova des Moro at Son Mercer de Baix, tour the 18th-century church of San Bartolomé, or follow the historic Camí Reial.

7. Pamper yourself at a spa

   Escape the sun for a few hours with a full body massage, facial or sauna session at one of the area's spas, a perfect way to unwind after a day of beach-hopping and hiking.
