Cala Sant Llorenç está a ocho kilómetros de Alaior ('el Montpellier menorquín'), situada entre la punta homónima y sa Sarola. Esta playa resulta de la confluencia entre un entrante de mar y la desembocadura de Torrent de Torre Vella. También se caracteriza por tener unas dimensiones reducidas (30 metros de longitud y 20 de anchura), un talud de grava y arena de grano grueso, así como por estar encajonada entre acantilados altos, abruptos, agrestes y coronados de una vegetación escasa (matorrales). El tramo de litoral que une Cala Llucalari con Cala Sant Llorenç registra en su punto medio una altura de 80 metros. Esta considerable altitud costera se da en las siguientes 1,8 millas de distancia que le separan de Cala en Porter. Las condiciones marinas y subacuáticas desaconsejan el fondeo de embarcaciones, puesto que es imposible varar frente a este rincón costero. El acceso por carretera es sencillo hasta sus inmediaciones siguiendo la señalización viaria y los desvíos. Su llegada a pie es muy complicada, ya que se encuentra encastrada entre barrancos. Los pocos bañistas locales y turistas que se acercan hasta aquí suelen hacerlo por mar. La zona de sur de Menorca está quebrada por una cuarentena de barrancos, algunos de éstos surcados por escorrentías, formando un paisaje de contraste, así como rico en flora y fauna. Sus cimas son áridas al estar expuesta a la acción del sol, mientras que sus laderas son más sombrías y húmedas al estar resguardadas del astro.
