Es Guix

Es Guix is a scenic anchorage spot off the northern coast of Menorca near es Mercadal, where you drop the hook and soak in the rugged, unspoiled shoreline that defines this part of the island. The surrounding landscape is raw and quiet, with little development to interrupt the views of the rocky Menorcan countryside meeting the sea. It's a solid base for exploring the inland area around es Mercadal, one of the island's oldest towns sitting at the foot of Monte Toro.
