Overview:

Cala Blanca is a modern (1990) purpose-built estate, extending N from its beach by an oval one-way system of roads. Private villas and apartments line the bleak esplanade, with coastal views towards Ciudadela. It is joined to the older and marginally more interesting holiday village of Santandria.

Locality:

Cala Blanca is situated at the W end of the island, 2½ mls S of Ciudadela, 30 mls NW of Menorca's capital city Mahon and the airport. It is set on a W-facing coast, on mainly level ground with a pine-fringed cove engulfed by a well-developed village.

Entertainment/Facilities/Attractions/Things to do:

The area is fairly bland and most suited to the undemanding quiet-seekers. Accommodation is mainly in the middle and lower middle categories with predominance of self-catering options. Lovely, small coastal inlets of Cala Blanca and Santandria have fine, gently shelving sandy beaches protected by rocky sides. There are a scattering of general tourist stores, with main concentration at Maribel commercial centre in Cala Blanca.

Daytime attractions include minigolf, small water slides and the beach. By night there is a disco at Santandria; a few music bars, karaoke and British-theme pubs.
