メノルカのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Located between Punta Binibeca and Cala Torret, near the unique urbanization of Biniceca or Binibéquer, this beach originates from a large, U-shaped cove surrounded by low rocky areas. It is characterized by fine white sand, a small dune system and vegetation that occupies the rear part, calm and crystalline water, and a high influx of local bathers and tourists. It is exposed to the winds of the east - south/east.

To the northwest of the island and just 6 kilometres by car from Ciutadella, you will come to the Punta Nati lighthouse, built in the middle of an arid, enveloping and almost magical place. In this island full of contrasts that is Menorca, Punta Nati is another exceptional attraction. It can be reached by a narrow road with a cycle path flanked on both sides by stone walls, called "paret seca" (dry wall) by the island's inhabitants. It is a recommended visit for all history lovers, for those who want to admire nature in its purest state, for people looking for a quiet place or for those who long for a unique refuge from where they can watch the sunset. Approaching the Punta Nati lighthouse at night to admire the stars is another activity not to be missed. Punta Nati, with the island of Mallorca on the horizon, is one of the most affected extremes of the coast due to the constant sea currents, the influence of the north winds and the formation of impressive "Bufadors": incredible waves that during stormy days, infiltrate between the cavities of the rocks of the cliff and that, pushed upwards, jump out of the ground near the lighthouse, taking the form of incredible columns of water. The continuous shipwrecks that occurred at the beginning of the 20th century, in particular that of the French steamship Général Chanzy, were the main reason for its construction in 1912. The lighthouse was inaugurated on September 1, 1913, and is still there, with its fenced perimeter, its 11.5 meters of height, and its flashing light distinguishable from 26 miles away. The landscape that surrounds Punta Nati is arid, has very little vegetation and the flat relief of the land ends in an impervious cliff. The particular characteristics of the dry wall outline numerous accesses and paths in the area, among which it is possible to glimpse stone houses where livestock were usually sheltered in case of bad weather.
