Cala Macarella — the sea today

Menorca, Balearic Islands · live calm score updated hourly, 48-hour outlook

Cala Macarella is a small beach on Menorca facing SE. Open water lies to the SE and S (the xaloc and migjorn), so wind and swell from those directions reach the beach; it is well sheltered from the N, NE, E, SW, W and NW. The Balearic Bay scores it 0–100 every hour from the forecast wind and swell cast against its real bay geometry — open the interactive map on this page for the score right now, jellyfish outlook and the next 48 hours.
