The afternoon was drawing to a close amid laughter and glances. The sun had been beating down since noon, revealing one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever had the blessing of visiting.
Golden and orange sand, alongside paths that looked as if they’d been dyed with iron, made of reddish rock and gravel. The undulating terrain traced harmonious green silhouettes, full of grasses and shrubs.
Northern Menorca was beginning to captivate me, in that almost instantaneous moment, like when you get a crush after a single glance.
It was as if the sea were enveloping me and as if the chatter and laughter of the people around me were seducing me with whispers in my ears.

Haciendo nuevos amigos en el paraíso de Menorca, España
La tarde caía entre risas y miradas. El sol había golpeado desde el mediodía, dejando ver una de las playas más bonitas que he tenido la bendición de conocer.
Arena dorada y anaranjada, junto a senderos que parecían teñidos en hierro, de roca y ripio rojizos. Los desniveles del terreno dibujaban siluetas armoniosas de verde, repletas de hierbas y arbustos.
El norte de Menorca empezaba a enamorarme, en aquel momento casi flash, como cuando hay un crush tras una simple mirada.
Era como si el mar me envolviera y como si las charlas y las risas de las personas que estaban alrededor estuvieran seduciéndome con susurros al oído.







That afternoon, I found myself giving thanks over and over again—for stepping outside my comfort zone, for changing my plans, for allowing myself to take that trip to Cavallería, one of Menorca’s most famous beaches. Famous for its pink sand, famous because its landscape looks like something out of prehistory, and it’s as if time itself stands still there.
There’s no cell service there, and for a few hours, life is simply about enjoying that exact moment. The sun, the warm sand, the crystal-clear, cool water, the views, and of course, the company.
We didn’t know who would arrive or when, we couldn’t communicate, we didn’t know if anyone had posted some story irrelevant to our lives on social media, and we didn’t know if anyone was trying to contact us—just for a few hours.
Agradecí varias veces aquella tarde, por haber salido de mi estructura, por haber cambiado mis planes, por haberme permitido hacer aquel viaje a Cavallería, una de las playas más famosas de Menorca. Famosa por arena rosa, famosa porque su paisaje parece de la prehistoria y es como si en el lugar, el tiempo se detuviese.
No hay señal de internet en ese sitio, y por unas horas la vida sencillamente consiste en disfrutar de ese preciso momento. Del sol, de la arena cálida, del agua cristalina y fresca, de las vistas y claro que también de la compañía.
No sabíamos quién llegaría ni cuando, no podíamos comunicarnos, no sabíamos si alguien había subido alguna historia irrelevante para nuestras vidas en alguna red social, y desconocíamos si alguien estaba intentando contactarnos, solo por unas horas.





Do you know what we did?
We played ball in the ocean, went for a group hike, took photos, laughed, soaked up the sun, shared details of our lives, exchanged a little Italian for Spanish, made plans for the future together, and went paddleboarding.
Cavallería Beach was all ours—a group of near-strangers who happened to meet in a corner of Menorca about three weeks ago.
Lots of earth signs, lots of Virgos like me, lots of environmental awareness. A beautiful energy—the kind that makes you want to hug people, but above all, to be grateful.
¿Saben lo que hicimos?
Jugamos a la pelota en el agua del mar, fuimos a hacer una caminata en grupo, nos tomamos fotos, nos reímos, tomamos sol, nos contamos detalles de nuestras vidas, intercambiamos un poco de italiano con español, pensamos en planes futuros juntos, paseamos en paddle surf.
La playa de Cavallería era toda nuestra, de un grupo de casi desconocidos que hace unas tres semanas coincidimos en un rincón de Menorca.
Muchos signos de tierra, muchos virgo como yo, mucha conciencia ambiental. Una energía bonita, de esa que dan ganas de abrazar pero sobre todo, de agradecer.








Today I’m sharing this place with a touch of poetry and a hint of what it means to be human. The landscape is breathtaking, and I’ve tried my best to describe it, but I’ll let the photos speak for themselves. I invite you to close your eyes as you look at them, to breathe in the scent of the grass, to feel the warmth of the sun, to feel your warm body immersing itself in cool water—I invite you to imagine laughter.
Because often a place “is” defined by the people who are bringing it to life at that moment.
Enjoy it!!
Traigo hoy este sitio con unos toques de poesía y con los tintes de lo propiamente humano. El paisaje es bellísimo y he intentado describirlo bastante, pero lo dejo a las fotos y los invito a cerrar los ojos mientras las ven y a respirar hierbas, a sentir el calor del sol, a sentir su cuerpo caliente sumergiéndose en agua fresca, los invito a imaginar risas.
Porque muchas veces un espacio “es”, según quiénes le estén dando vida en ese momento.
Que lo disfruten!!

I really enjoyed this post. The sunset was beautiful, but what stood out most to me was seeing everyone having such a great time together. Those spontaneous moments with new friends often become the memories we remember for years. Menorca looks like an amazing place to experience that.
Hermosísimas las fotos, el agua reflejando el sol y ese atardecer te quedó espectacular! este post me provocó planear algún viaje flash a la playa 😂🩷
The scenery sounds breathtaking and I like how you captured the moment.
That was a very nice trip you made. The time, energy and money spend really worth it because the place was really beautiful.
Travel can turn strangers into friends fast. When people share sun, sea and no phones, they talk more and laugh more but the simple moments matter more than plans or social media.
