Hoping to escape with the family? Lose the “what ifs” and jet off to Menorca. Experience culture and nature, and treat the kids to an extra ice cream on the beach. Leave the planning to us and get ready an unforgettable break.

Calling all explorers!

Take a trip around Menorca’s most fascinating landmarks. Deep dive into easy-access caves, scarper over stretches of dunes and hop over wetland puddles. Kids still at fever pitch? Rally up some bikes and pedal through flat coastal routes. Feeling ambitious? Hike up Monte Toro and be rewarded with a bird’s-eye view of the Balearic Island and scope out the ruins of ancient monuments.

Here, there and everywhere.

Menorca offers up a rich supply of activities to entertain the whole family. Investigate the world of critters big and small at Lloc de Menorca zoo. Scope out over 200 species of bird and dig deep to find the native Lilford’s Wall lizard.

Ready, set, go! Delve into the restored limestone quarry, Lithica and see who can complete the maze quickest. Speaking of racing, the kids won’t be able to resist splashing into Aquarock Waterpark or having a go at the Menorca Half Day Kayak and Snorkelling Tour.

Time to unwind?

Recharge your batteries and soak up the Mediterranean sun at one of Menorca’s Blue-flag approved beachy locations. With 130 miles of coast, picking a lounging spot can be a toughie so why not pick the most popular? Son Bou has the longest stretch of land and is a local prodigy of sparkling sands and weaving dunes. Topped off with crystal-clear waters, this one’s a no-brainer.

Up for a spot of history?

Check out the archaic towns of Mahón and Ciutadella and gaze at the collection of prehistoric stone monuments. In the capital’s harbour, you can roam the underground tunnels of Fortaleza del la Mala and pursue the secrets of the 19th-century fort.
