INFORMACIÓN DE LA PLAYA
LA PLAYA
Savinar de Mongofre or Platja de Mongofre is a beautiful golden natural beach located in the protected area of s'Albufera d'es Grau. It is owned by the Rubió Tudurí foundation, but they have rented it for 30 years and we do not know if permission can be requested at some point to access in some simple way from land. The cove is absolutely beautiful with the typical orange colors of several sites of the north of Menorca and that there is not in any other island of the Balearics. We recommend access from the sea.
OBSERVACIONES
During the summer of 2018 you can not access the Favàritx Lighthouse road, it must be accessed only by bus from Mahón. There are 13 daily departures from Maó, every hour and a half, between 9:00 and 19:30. Here the schedules and the location of where they leave: https://goo.gl/kNp92U It will be a measure until they enable parking in the area. Since 2017 the farm is rented and does not allow access on foot from the foundation. On foot you can only access by deviating from the Camí de Cavalls 1 km by private land (we do not recommend it). It is difficult to arrive also coasting by the previous coves, but not very difficult for fit people and accustomed to long excursions. We recommend to take mobile devices continuously checking the location on a map or better, arriving by boat.

How to arrive at Savinar de Mongofre
*** Car Park summer 2018
During the summer of 2018 you can not access the Favàritx Lighthouse road, only by bus from Mahón. Here times and location where they come from: https://goo.gl/kNp92U Get off at the stop for CALA TORTUGA and continue walking for 8 minutes towards the lighthouse until you reach the Camí de Cavalls on your left.
* Once at Cami de Cavalls
At 200 meters from the beginning of this stretch of camí de cavalls we will see another wooden door. Be attentive because the Camí de cavalls continues on this detour, and NOT on the path that follows. Open the wooden door and check that the pylons of the camí de cavalls continue on this detour
Sea views then crossing trails
We will continue the Camí de Cavalls. First we will arrive at a cliff with views of several beaches, among them and in the distance the Mongofre beach. We must go through the back of the first beach: Pou d'en Caldés beach; After and following the Camí de Cavalls, we will go up a hill, when going down we will see a crossroads.
Crossing trails
In this crossroads of paths in the Camí de Cavalls is marked "Salinas de Mongofre" and where we come from (Pou d'en Caldés) but it does not indicate ANYTHING about the third path. You must continue by this third path (provided that we have permission from the Foundation Rubió Tudurí WHAT THEY DO NOT GIVE FROM 2017, WE HOPE THAT THEY WILL GIVE BACK SOME DAY).
Path, but not Cami de Cavalls
On this path we head towards the two beaches of all Mongofre. There is a well half demolished. You must go looking at a map, there are many trails and you will get lost. HERE AND LOOKING AT A GPS OR GOOGLEMAPS APP . Then you will up another cliff to your left, once you have down the cliff there is another crossing trails: Go to your right, to the norh. There is a stone wall, jump it and continue.
Forest
There is a forest were there is no indications and there are a lot of paths, so you need a GPS or an app of googlemaps. You must search the path that will leave you in the back of the Mongofre beach
