About this site
The Coral Galleries is a cavern on three levels in the Marine Reserve of Isla del Aire off Menorca, filled with natural light, at about 22 metres. Its walls and roof are covered in delicate coral, bright encrusting anemones and sponges.
Grouper, moray eels and conger eels live in the cavern. A chimney to the west brings you out close to an attractive horseshoe-shaped bay. You can instead leave by the main exit to the east, following the wall to a second sandy-floored cave. In front of that cave is the site of La Laurette, a French man-of-war lost in 1883, where musket balls and grapeshot can still be found in the sand and rocks.
