The little village of Cala Canutells is a gathering of villas and hotels, skirting the edge of a rugged inlet where the azure Mediterranean meets a soft sand shore. With its enchanting beach and neighbouring sandy coves, charming Cala Canutells is a beach-lover's dream. The resort is perfect for children with calm and shallow waters, but for bigger kids or just bigger beaches, Cala'n Porter is nearby and also Son Bou, home to Menorca's biggest beach with all the trimmings. Visitors to Cala Canutells find it a wonderful base from which to explore other areas of Menorca. Mahon is nearby with sweet shops and fresh food markets, chic boutiques and historical sights. Step back thousands of years in the prehistoric Calas Coves. Energetic drivers can try go-carting at the Aeroclub outside of San Lluis. Although there are cosy restaurants in the village, for a change there are the bars and restaurants of nearby Sant Climent to while away a starry evening to the sound of cool, summertime jazz.
