Playa Arenal d'en Castell, Horseshoe beach on northern coast in es Mercadal, Spain.
The beach extends for 654 meters along the northern Menorcan coast, featuring white sand and sheltered waters in a natural bay formation.
The beach area developed from a small fishing settlement into a modern resort destination during the Spanish tourism expansion of the 1970s.
Local fishermen maintain their traditional practices in the adjacent waters, bringing fresh catches to the restaurants that line the beachfront.
The beach provides wooden walkways for accessibility, medical services, lifeguard stations, and rental facilities for umbrellas and water equipment.
The natural bay configuration creates a perfect semicircle of 300 meters diameter, with waters that remain consistently calm throughout the year.
