Shallow Menorca cove with easy snorkeling and scuba.
Cala’n Forcat is a shallow Menorca cove with a relaxed shore entry, a gently sloping seabed, and rocky platforms that make it a friendly spot for easy snorkeling and casual scuba. It suits swimmers who want a calm, clear bay rather than a big-wall dive, with fish life tucked around the rocks and a simple in-and-out route from the cove access points.
