    One of the most rewarding walks is the one that will take you to Cala Trebalúger, where the green, the turquoise blue and the white of the fine sand merge into one.

    It is not the most accessible cove in the south, but it is one of the most beautiful, so take note of how to make the most of your visit to Trebalúger to make the walk worthwhile. If you don't feel like walking, you can always join a boat trip to it. I tell you all about it here.

    The best option to visit Cala Trebalúger is to hire a boat trip to visit the most magical coves in the south of Menorca.

    This way, you will not only enjoy the views during the trip, but also the boat will get as close as possible to the coast so you can take the best souvenir photos of such iconic beaches as Cala Trebalúger itself, but also Cala Mitjana, Macarella, or Turqueta, among others.

    Of course, you can take one or more dips in the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean or, if you prefer, snorkel to discover the underwater life of the south of Menorca. A luxury within your reach.

    I already told you that it is not the most accessible cove of the south coast. You can only get there on foot or by boat but I assure you that the walk is worth it.

    By car

    It is clear that the car is the most practical way to move around Menorca on your vacations. It allows you flexibility and freedom of schedules, but you will have to take into account that the beaches are not always accessible by private vehicle. And that is the case of Trebalúger, which does not have a parking lot or path to it, so you have to park a few kilometers away, specifically in Cala Galdana, about 40 minutes walk.

    Walking

    You will have no other option but to walk to Cala Trebalúger, wherever you come from. From Cala Galdana, for example, you can reach first Cala Mitjana in about 20 minutes on foot and then you will have another 20 minutes to Trebalúger. That's 40 minutes in total. From Cala Fustam, for example, it will take you about 25 minutes walking.

    By bus

    The bus is always a good option because in high season it usually has very good frequency. The main coves are well connected with the main towns and will save you the time of parking. You can get from your accommodation to Cala Galdana and from there walk along a nice path to Trebalúger. Consult the Menorca bus website to find out which bus line and timetable is the most convenient for you.

    What to do in Cala Trebalúger

    The best thing to do in Trebalúger is, without a doubt, to enjoy its crystal clear waters, the sun and the spectacular natural environment that surrounds it. You can take shelter from the heat under the shade of the pine forest that almost reaches the sea water and you can also take its paths to reach other nearby coves. Cala Mitjana, for example, is only 20 minutes away and is well worth a visit.

    Another option I recommend is that, if you have snorkeling goggles and snorkel, do not hesitate to explore this coast and the limestone walls that surround it. You will find an interesting underwater life that will keep you entertained for a while.

    If you hire an excursion to Cala Trebalúger by boat you won't even have to worry about the snorkeling equipment, because they provide it on the boat itself.

    The best time to visit Trebalúger Cove

    As in practically all the coves of the island, you should arrive early in the morning to ensure a good spot, especially if you want to avoid having problems parking and not having to make the 40-minute walk under the intense midday sun.

    In addition, arriving early in the morning you will be able to take better advantage of the day at the beach and you will have time to discover some other of its nearby coves. If you want to get there by boat, you can save yourself the early start and do the excursion in the afternoon or embark on the full day option at 10 am in Ciudadela.

    None. Trebalúger is a virgin beach with no parking, bars, hotels or restaurants. Everything you are going to need during the day, better take it with you: water, soft drinks, food, cap, sunscreen... Be well prepared so you don't have to interrupt your day at the beach with a walk to the nearest store, 40 minutes away!

    What can you eat in Cala Trebalúger?

    Very easy: whatever you want or can fit in your backpack. There you will not find any restaurant service or beach bar to buy food, nor street vendors. It is important to keep this in mind to make sure you get there with provisions in your backpack or in a cooler to make the most of your day at the beach.
