Exclusive Plot For Sale Opposite Son Xoriguer Beach, Ciutadella

Ciutadella de Menorca is the historic former capital of the island, occupying its western tip, and it carries a distinct architectural and cultural weight that sets it apart from Mahón and the island’s more tourist-oriented resorts. Its old town is defined by Gothic palaces, Baroque churches, and narrow limestone streets that open onto a working harbour lined with restaurants and sailing boats. The surrounding coastline, including Son Xoriguer and Cala’n Bosch to the south, offers some of the most sheltered and residential stretches of beach on the island.

Daily life in Ciutadella centres on the Plaça des Born, the covered Mercat Municipal, and a strong local restaurant scene including Es Tast de na Sílvia and Smoix. Son Xoriguer and Cala’n Bosch are a short drive southwest, offering calm, family-oriented beaches. The marina provides direct access to sailing and water sports year-round.

Menorca Airport, located near Mahón on the eastern side of the island, is approximately 45 kilometres from Ciutadella, a journey of around 45 minutes by car. The airport operates direct flights to major European cities including London, Barcelona, Madrid, and Frankfurt, with Barcelona connections available year-round. A regular ferry service from Ciutadella port connects to Alcúdia in Mallorca in under two hours, and to Barcelona via overnight crossing.
