Arenal D'en Castell Holiday
Situated 20km from Mahon, Arenal d'en Castell is an attractive purpose-built resort set on Minorca's dramatic northern coastline. The resort cascades down the steep slopes of a crescent-shaped bay and is backed by swathes of verdant pine woodlands. Lively Arenal d'en Castell is particularly popular with families and young couples.
Beaches
Without a doubt, the main attraction of Arenal d'en Castell is its glorious beach. Made up of soft, golden sands, it curves around the long sweep of the bay and offers safe bathing and a good range of watersports, including pedalos and windsurfing.
Shopping
Arenal d'en Castell has a host of shops in the centre of the resort for all of those holiday essentials, and a new shopping centre on the outskirts of town. For a more comprehensive range of shops, head to the island's capital, Mahon, or across to Minorca's western coast, to the historic town of Ciudadela, which is home to a wide selection of traditional shops and elegant boutiques.
Nightlife
Arenal has several bars including an Irish pub. With some of them opening late, you'll never be short of things to do once the sun has set over the azure waters of the Mediterranean.
Local Specialities
The resort offers a wide range of restaurants, from Chinese and Italian to traditional Spanish dishes.
