Discover Punta Prima

  • by

The south of Menorca is the quietest and most exclusive area of the island and there are hidden corners that do not appear in all the guide books.

Punta Prima is a municipality of San Luis in the southeast of the island, only a few kilometres by car from the beautiful village of Binibèquer Vell. It stands out for the Torre de Son Ganxo tower and from its beach you can see the island de l’Aire.

Its beach, accessible from the town itself, has fine sand and a family atmosphere, making it a recommended place to go with the little ones. These details are what make the island a place where you can visit all year round and not just in the summer season.

We bring you some of these places that you must visit during your stay in Punta Prima.

Being the most outstanding piece of land to be seen from Punta Prima, this 34-hectare islet, located just a few kilometres from the beach of sa Punta Prima, can only be reached by boat and its 38-metre high lighthouse can be appreciated.

It is considered a biosphere reserve, as you cannot enter the islet, only see it from the boat, as the island is home to an endemic lizard which is a protected species.
