S'Albufera des Grau Natural Park extends over 5,066 hectares, encompassing wetlands, coastal sections, islets, and traditional farms near the Mediterranean Sea.
The establishment of the park in 1995 followed a period of environmental activism in the 1980s against urban expansion, leading to Menorca's UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status.
The park contains several archaeological sites featuring remains of the Talaiotic civilization, including ancient stone structures called taulas and talayots.
Visitors can access the park through multiple entry points from Mahón, with Line 23 bus service operating during summer months for convenient transportation.
The geological formations in the park date back to the Devonian period, creating distinct landforms that support over 100 bird species throughout the seasons.
