Es Graü

Es Graü is a sheltered bay located on the northeastern coast of Menorca, Spain. The bay opens toward the northeast with a curved sandy beach and shallow lagoon-like conditions protected by rocky headlands. The spot features turquoise shallow water suitable for beginners, with modest wave activity averaging 0.95m. The bay's protected nature provides calm conditions but limits wind exposure, reflected in the low 11% reliability statistic. Average winds of 7.2 knots suggest this is a marginal spot requiring consistent northwesterly winds (315°) to be side-shore and rideable. Water temperature averages 18.8°C, requiring a wetsuit outside summer months. The residential development adjacent to the beach indicates limited access and potential congestion during peak seasons. This spot suits beginners and learners seeking gentle conditions with minimal fetch and wave exposure. However, low wind reliability makes it unreliable as a primary destination. Kiters should scout tidal conditions and check local access regulations before launching.
