One of the most popular family holiday destinations, Menorca, with its spectacular coastline comprising long sandy stretches of beach, picturesque bays and hidden little coves overshadowed by dramatic cliffs and diverse landscape, has a very individual character and atmosphere. There is something about Menorca that is hard to explain – it has to be experienced.
Menorca enjoys a typically Mediterranean climate and is known for its beautiful unspoilt sandy beaches – and has over 40 of them, the majority having good snack bars and restaurants for refreshing drinks and tasty lunches. Menorca is also a UNESCO-designated biosphere, ensuring that its wonderful environment and countryside is protected.
There is plenty to keep families occupied off the beaches too, with a host of leisure activities to enjoy. Water sports are plentiful as are golf clubs, tennis courts and fishing trips. Surfcasting and rock fishing are particularly popular. With much of the countryside being flat, cycling and walking trails are very common with many bicycle hire outlets to get kitted out.
Menorca offers magnificent architecture and stunning, quaint harbours. An excursion to the island’s capital, Mahon, makes for a great day out to explore its harbour, shops, bars and restaurants. Nightlife is, for the most part, laid-back in comparison to the other Balearic Islands, with restaurants, cafes, bars and marinas being the hubs of activity rather than nightclubs.
Menorca is a great holiday choice for families, as well as couples who want to kick back and soak up the sun in a picturesque relaxing setting. Menorca has it all and more.
