Santa Agueda
About
Santa Agueda in Menorca is a viewpoint reached via Camí Santa Àgueda, 07750 Ferreries, Illes Balears. The viewing area sits on the island's highest point, drawing visitors who come for the wide sweep of the island below.
A 4.3/5 rating from 254 reviews reflects how consistently walkers and drivers judge the stop. The summit lies between Mahón and Ciutadella, with Cala Galdana and Cala Macarella down on the coast. The climb rewards those who make it with a panorama that takes in much of Menorca at once.
First-time visitors should note the exposed position: the tramuntana, a cold north wind, blows strongly at times in winter and spring, so a jacket helps outside the summer months. Catalan and Spanish are both official on the island, with the local dialect known as menorquí, which appears on road signs and menus.
Reaching the viewpoint is easiest by car, and the road up is narrow in places. Cala Blanca, Cala en Bosch and Binibeca sit further south, useful if the day continues along the coast. Cala Mitjana offers another stop for those heading back towards Ferreries. The 254 reviews suggest the stop has become a regular part of many island itineraries.
