Things to do in Cala'n Bosch

Cala’n Bosch is in an ideal location to explore those Menorca attractions situated on the west side of the island, such as the town of Cuitadella, Far d'Artrutx lighthouse, Quarries of S'Hostal or the ancient prehistoric settlement at Son Catlar.

The numerous water sports on offer at Cala’n Bosch is one of the highlights to visiting the resort, whether its jet powered flyboarding, sea kayaking, snorkelling or not to be missed are the boat trips along some stunning coastline and gorgeous secluded beaches, such as Son Saura and Cala Turqueta. We recommended the company Don Pancho for boat trips.

There are two stages of the coastline pathway known as Cami de Cavalls that can be used by walkers or mountain bikes both of easy difficulty from Ciutadella to Cap d’Artrutx (7.4 miles) and Cala en Turqueta to Cap d’Artrutx (8 miles), we recommend you catch a bus to Ciutadella, then onto Cala en Turqueta and walk back to Cala’n Bosch, but take plenty of water, there are no shops on route.

For shorter walks from Cala’n Bosch more suited for kids, try following the coastline path eastwards where you’ll discover the beach at Son Xoriguer then onto the sea cave at Sa cova des pardals. Alternately, follow the coast westwards to the Cap d’Artrutx lighthouse which offers spectacular sunsets over the sea with views to Majorca.
