One of the star activities of the summer in Menorca is to contemplate the sunsets over the sea.

The sunset is a very relaxing activity and you can go to see it as a family, as a couple or with friends.

It’s free, short and doesn’t break up your day as you can do things before and after sunset!

Although from many points of the coast you can see beautiful sunsets, these 5 that I show you below are for me the 5 best sunsets you can see in Menorca.

1. Cavalleria Lighthouse

The sunset from the cliffs by the Cavalleria lighthouse is a real scandal. Combinations of colors over a flat sea, where every now and then a sailboat or a small motorboat cruises by.

From the cliffs you can see La illa des Porros in the middle of the sea, piles of stones stacked by visitors (it is a bad practice), wild vegetation weathered by the intense tramuntana wind… Every time I go, I’m speechless.

Free, accessible and for all audiences, a truly different sunset.

If you want to combine a sunset in Cavalleria with more activities with family or friends in a single day, you might be interested in doing a Jeep Safari.

2. Punta Nati Lighthouse

The Punta Nati lighthouse is not far behind in the competition with Cavalleria. Although it’s true it doesn’t have the height of its cliffs or the spectacular scenery, it’s much more accessible from Ciutadella.

This means there’s almost always someone at Punta Nati to watch the sunset, so be ready to clap when it’s over (if you’re the clapping type…)!
From 2022 there are restrictions on access by car, so be informed before you go.so get informed before you go.

3. Mount Toro

Can you watch the sunset from the highest point in Menorca? Yes! And it also has free parking and a gift shop for the biggest shoppers.

Not only will you be able to watch the sunset, you’ll also see a good part of Menorca from the very top.

If you dare, climb on a bike! It’s a hike with a lot of incline but it’s very short. It’s 3.6 km in distance and 290 m of positive elevation gain.

4. Bahia Restaurant in Santandria

This restaurant is in a privileged spot, and not only because it’s in an old Menorcan house, but also because it’s right on the seafront, just in front of Santandria beach.

From its terrace you can have a drink with views of Santandria beach while the sun goes down.

5. Sunset on a Sailboat at sunset (65€)

If you’re looking for something a bit different from watching the sunset from land, then the best thing is to hop on a catamaran and watch the sunset from the sea.

It costs 65€ per person and you can sail for 3 hours departing from Fornells, with a snack and cold drinks included.

Bonus 1: Sunset Experience Jeep Safari Menorca (77€)

If you fancy doing a full half-day trip and watching the sunset in a different way, I recommend you try the Jeep Safari Menorca Sunset Experience.

As well as discovering corners of Menorca that aren’t very accessible, visiting beaches and trying produce from Menorca’s market gardens, at the end you’ll be able to watch the sunset from a privileged setting.

Bonus 2: Cova d’en Xoroi

The most typical and the most crowded, but no less spectacular for it. When you arrive at Menorca airport they’re already handing out flyers to visit it, but this place has undeniable charm. It can be expensive, but the views from this cave are really beautiful.

If you don’t have the budget to go in, I’ll give you a hint, if you go up to the cliffs above you can see the same without paying a single euro… but without mojito or beer!
You can also go at night and enjoy the party in the most famous discotheque in Menorca.
