How to Get There

To get to Cala Viola de Llevant, head first to the Camí de Tramontana, a small paved road giving the access to the isolated beaches in the north of Menorca. After the take, the turn towards Cavallería Beach and go towards the lighthouse but not to the end of the road. The parking area is located halfway along the road on the right-hand side.
