Access 1 – By car and on foot. From the main road across Menorca you can head north from either Es Mercadal, Alaior or Maó to the secondary parallel road (Me-7) towards Favàritx. Follow the signage indicating Favàritx which will lead to the smaller road (Cf-1) which you follow to the end. Find parking on the side of the road before the lighthouse. Keep an eye out on the right as you approach the lighthouse for the sign that indicates the ‘Camí de Cavalls’. Once parked follow this sign along the Camí de Cavalls’ track which there is a turn off before the end for Cala Presili. Straight on leads you to Cala Tortuga. Easy walking track, flat almost the whole way. Approximately 15 – 20 minutes.
Access 2 – Via the sea via boat, kayak or jet ski.
