Platja es Grau, Protected beach in Es Grau, Menorca, Spain
Platja es Grau is a protected sandy beach with shallow turquoise water in a bay sheltered by the island of Colom across the way. A dune system runs behind the beach and creates a natural buffer between the water and the village.
The beach and village have kept their traditional shape from centuries of fishing, with small fishing boats still standing as evidence of this past. The area was later protected to preserve its natural and historic character.
The place maintains its character as a traditional fishing village where you can observe daily work and local restaurants serve fresh catches. The bond between the beach and village life shapes the look and feel of this coastal spot.
The beach has restrooms, showers, and parking nearby, with the village and its restaurants just a short walk away. The shallow water makes it especially suitable for families with children.
The beach is part of a natural park that hosts numerous bird species and is visited by birdwatchers and nature lovers. Visitors can spot many wading and water birds, especially during migration seasons.
