Arenal D'En Castell Menorca Spain

Arenal d’en Castell is a self-contained modern resort, with a small supermarket, a few shops, and restaurants and bars. There is also a chemist and a bar just next to the beach. The coastline is dramatic and probably the best feature; in comparison to other Menorcan resorts, this one tends to look over-developed.

Locality:

Arenal d’en Castell is located on the N coast, 14 mls N of Mahon and the airport. It is buit around a near-circular cove with steep slopes rising on all sides, backed by heathland and pine woods.

Arenal d’en Castell is a fairly lively resort, hence it is good for families, especially younger ones, and for couples. Not ideal for the elderly because of the steepness.

Accommodation consists of an assortment of apartments and hotels, mainly in the budget bracket and mid price range. A lovely, long curve of golden sand lines much of the bay, with a smaller beach beyond some rocks at the W end. Equipped with pedalloes, windsurfers and sun loungers.

Daytime entertainment consists mainly of the beach and related activities. By night there are several lively late bars which supplement the entertainments offered by the hotels.
