Binibèquer Vell (or Binibeca Vell) is one of the most visited areas of Menorca during the summer. It is a “village” built in 1972 as an imitation of the old fishermen’s houses. If you’re looking for some information about its history, you may find very derogatory comments about Binibèquer. For some people it is only a “big lie”, a village built to deceive tourists into believing that it is an authentic old fishing village.

Necropolis is a word of Greek origin that can be translated as City of the Dead.
The Necropolis, as its name indicates, were used as a cemetery since pre-Talayotic times.

Isolated from civilization and in the midst of s’Albufera des Grau we find the Cape of Favàritx. The Cape of Favàritx is located in the Tramontana area of the island (the northern area) and is geologically very ancient, specifically from the primary era, also known as Paleozoic. In the same cape of Favaritx we can find the Favaritx Lighthouse. The Lighthouse of Favaritx is surrounded by low cliffs of black and grayish slate, forming a style that many define as lunar or even infernal. When you head towards the lighthouse you will have the feeling that you are in another island, that it is not Menorca at all.
