Cala en Forcat lies beside the Els Delfins residential development, between Cap de Banyos and ses Dobles, and close to Cales Piques and Cala en Brut. Its name, cala, is the Catalan and Spanish word for a small cove, the form used for many Menorcan beaches. The beach is semi-urban and heavily visited, with golden sand of intermediate texture.
Access comes via metal stairs leading into the water that are safe for beginners. It helps to wear water shoes since rock surfaces are rough, and water activities happen anytime depending on conditions.
The flat rock platforms let visitors jump directly from the stones into the clear seawater, adding a playful element to the beach. This makes the place popular with divers and active swimmers.
