Punta Prima map

Punta Prima is located in the southeast corner of Menorca. The distance to the capital, Mahon, is only 10 km and the international airport in Mahon is only 25 minutes away by car.

Punta Prima beach
The nice sand beach in Punta Prima is located right in front of the small town centre. The beach is 150 metres long and very wide, so there is plenty of room for all.

The water is clear and relatively shallow. The water has a sand bottom, but there are some low and flat rocks on both sides of the beach. The location inside a bay provides good protection against waves.

It is possible to rent sun lounges and sunshades at the beach. Other facilities include showers and toilets. During the summer, the beach is supervised by a lifeguard.

One kilometre southeast of the beach, you will find the island ‘Isla Del Aire’. The island is home of one of the seven characteristic lighthouses in Menorca, which is easily visible from the beach. Isla Del Aire is also known for its very special inhabitants: the black lizards (sargentana negre) as well as several hundred rabbits.

Child-friendliness
The beach in Punta Prima has shallow and usually quite calm water, which makes it very child-friendly. Less than 50 metres from the beach, there is a nice playground.
