Setting Sail from Cala Galdana

As a family travel writer, I’m always on the lookout for experiences that are both fun and educational for my three kids. When I heard about the Trebalúger Boat Trip from Cala Galdana, I knew it was something we had to try. The promise of exploring Menorca’s hidden beaches and the chance to snorkel in crystal-clear waters was too tempting to resist.

We arrived at the picturesque marina of Cala Galdana, where the friendly team from Amigos welcomed us warmly. They remembered our names and even asked about the kids, which made us feel right at home. The boat itself was impressive, offering both covered and open-top seating. We decided to split our time between the two, allowing us to enjoy the sun and the shade as we cruised along the stunning coastline.

The audio guide provided fascinating insights into the history and natural beauty of the beaches we passed. It was a great way to keep the kids engaged and learning while we soaked in the breathtaking views. The anticipation built as we approached our first stop, the secluded Cala Trebaluger.

Discovering Cala Trebaluger

Cala Trebaluger is a hidden gem, a pristine beach that feels like a secret paradise. The boat docked at an exclusive spot, giving us easy access to the soft, white sand and inviting turquoise waters. The kids were thrilled to try out the waterslides and snorkel gear provided by the crew. Watching them splash around and discover the vibrant marine life was a joy.

For those who prefer a more relaxed experience, there’s the option to simply lounge on the beach or take a leisurely walk along the rocky coastal path. I chose to join the kids in the water, and we spent a blissful hour swimming and exploring. The life jackets and snorkels were a thoughtful touch, ensuring everyone felt safe and comfortable.

As our time at Cala Trebaluger came to an end, we reluctantly made our way back to the boat. The crew had thoughtfully prepared refreshments, and we enjoyed a light snack as we set off to explore more of Menorca’s coastline.

A Memorable Return Journey

The return journey was just as delightful as the trip out. We visited a couple more beautiful spots, each with its own unique charm. The kids were fascinated by the natural stone bridge at Cala Mitjana, and we all marveled at the stunning vistas from the boat.

The onboard bar was a hit with the whole family, offering a selection of snacks and drinks to keep us refreshed. It was the perfect way to unwind and reflect on the day’s adventures. As we sailed back to the marina, the sun began to set, casting a golden glow over the water.

This boat trip was a fantastic experience, one that we would gladly do again. It offered the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and education, making it an ideal choice for families. If you’re planning a trip to Menorca, I highly recommend adding the Trebalúger Boat Trip to your itinerary. It’s a journey that promises unforgettable memories for both kids and adults alike.
