See Menorca’s most iconic coves in just two hours aboard a private 8‑meter classic boat from Cala Galdana. Fast, local-guided, and ideal for quick swims and snorkeling in turquoise bays.
The boat slips away from the small marina at Cala Galdana and the coastline unfurls—sheer white limestone cliffs, pine-clad headlands, and water that pushes a bright, daring turquoise toward the hull. Onboard an 8‑meter classic, the skipper threads a route past Macarella, Macarelleta, Turqueta and Mitjana: each cove offers a different angle on Menorca’s coastal geology and light—rounded bays softened by millennia of wave carving and sudden caves cut into the cliff face.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

Onboard an 8‑meter classic, the skipper threads a route past Macarella, Macarelleta, Turqueta and Mitjana: each cove offers a different angle on Menorca’s coastal geology and light—rounded bays softened by millennia of wave carving and sudden caves cut into the cliff face.
Menorca’s coves reflect the island’s story: Paleogene limestones topped by red clays, centuries of fishing culture, and coastal paths that once linked watchtowers to small farms. Locals still read the sea for weather and for the shoals of small fish that attract gulls and the occasional dolphin.
In two hours you’ll anchor briefly at a few of the highlights for swims and snorkeling; the tour includes masks and fins, light snacks and onboard facilities. The pace is brisk but generous enough for a clear dip in sheltered bays and quick photo stops of cliffs that glow in late afternoon sun.
Practical notes: meet at the west dock in Cala Galdana; wear reef shoes for slippery rocks if you plan to step ashore, apply reef‑safe sunscreen, and bring a light wind layer—the sea can be cool even in summer. This private express run is ideal for travelers short on time who want a concentrated sample of Menorca’s coastline without the formality of a full-day charter.
