In winter the winds make for some good Kite Surfing conditions

Wing Foiling is the new sport. A hybrid, a mix, a coming together of new technologies and possibilities from its sibling sports of windsurfing, surf foiling and kiting.

Snorkelling

Fun - Casual Snorkeling at your Resort or Snorkel Safaris by boat?

Nearly all beaches have gentle sloping sandy bottoms. Children will see small fish ( Sand steenbras ) almost anywhere on Menorca at their local beach, usually looking for food in sand sent up by the bather's feet. But if you want to see (and a chance to see Octopus) more varied fish head to the areas with rocks, where they eat Algae and like the shelter. Best places usually at the sides of coved beaches further out away from the bathers or slightly offshore on beaches without bays.
