Los Delfines
Los Delfines is an amalgamation of several smaller resorts, Cala en Blanes, Cala en Bruc, Cala ‘n Forcat and Los Delfines to form the are known collectively as Los Delfines. The several beaches are all interlinked and it is quite easy to walk from one mini resort to another as the whole area is relatively small.
Although the Los Delfines area is quite developed compared to many areas of the island, most holiday villas in the resort are in residential areas and so you get a cosmopolitan feel, without the usual accompanying noise and hubbub. There are also holiday hotels and apartments but again these are well spread amongst the resorts and are not overpowering as a result.
We’ve visited the beaches and amenities of the Los Delfines area several times during our many visits to Menorca, generally with the intention of wiling away a few hours at the water park, but inevitably we’ve wandered around the numerous tourist shops, bars and restaurants. The water park itself has catering facilities and for children the catering is ideal, as it allows the minimum separation from the amusements, of which there are many – when we last visited with young teenagers, these included pool, trampolining, go karts and of course the water park itself.
Cala en Blanes is the largest of these small beaches and lies towards the eastern edge of the resort. With its two beach bars /cafe bars, Cala en Blanes can become quite busy as most high season holidaymakers here will find the other two beaches a little claustrophobic.
Cala en Forcat is situated on a long finger like inlet at the Western end of the resort with a small sandy area to the back. Sunbathing platforms alleviate the crush a little, but many find they need to explore a little further afield using the bus service or the resort train in high season. Don’t forget to take plenty to drink and remember there are no beach facilities here, although there are facilities within easy walking distance.
Calas Piques is tucked away to the western edge of Los Delfines resort and if undiscovered by the masses might offer a little more peace and quiet. Again, no facilities here.
Cala en Bruc lies in the middle of Los Delfines resort and although having no beach, it does have a series of well arranged sunbathing platforms.
We will be adding more detail as time allows, but for now we hope this small review has given you a taste of the resort at
