User reviews
"It's a bit of a trek from the car park, with a steep and rocky path, but it's definitely worth it when you get there. amazing and it's also a great spot for nudists. The scenery is truly picturesque, and the calm, sheltered waters are perfect for swimming. Just sit back and relax!"
Steven Johnson
"Cala Pregonda in Menorca is a great spot for a peaceful getaway. It's a hot spot with a gorgeous walk to get there and the sand is a beautiful orange-red. The waters are perfect for snorkeling and there's only one jellyfish in sight. Definitely one of the best beaches around."
