Why Menorca should be your next summer escape

We spent the afternoon relaxing on the golden sands of Cala Mitjana, the gentle crash of waves sending us into an unexpected nap. We’d made the most of our week on Menorca, the second largest (and least populous) of Spain’s iconic Balearic Islands, but the constant exploration had us weary. Morning walks along the rugged coast, long lunches in hidden cafes, afternoons spent on golden beaches, hikes through national parks, balmy evening meals under the moonlight; all had taken their toll. This nap, it turns out, was much needed.   A gentle breeze roused us in time for one last quick dip in the achingly beautiful turquoise waters, before setting off for our last dinner of our Menorcan escape. It was going to be hard to leave our new island paradise. During our week on Menorca, we discovered an understated island packed full of surprises. It offers a combination of interesting history, natural beauty, varied outdoor pursuits, quality food and wine, and most importantly, over 100 stunning beaches. Here’s a few reasons why Menorca should be your next summer escape. WHY MENORCA SHOULD BE YOUR NEXT SUMMER ESCAPE  THE ISLAND OF MENORCA IS ACTUALLY STUNNING Yep, the whole damn island. We visited almost every single corner, and everywhere we went was exceedingly pretty. The main towns of Mahon and Ciutadella are lifted straight from the ‘pretty old European town’ playbook, with pastel coloured laneways, gothic churches, medieval architecture, Moorish-style buildings, large Piazzas, pretty harbours, and a huge variety of restaurants. Step outside the main centres and you’re met with rolling fields of gold, pretty white houses dotted across the landscape, winding country lanes enclosed by ancient stone walls, and farm stores selling local produce. Menorca was declared a UNESCO Biosphere reserve in 1993, 42% of which encompasses this small island. As a result, the island is full of natural beauty, both on land and sea. S’Albufera des Grau is the largest nature reserve on the island, and it’s possible to hike, bike, kayak, and swim in the reserve.  MENORCA HAS SOME OF THE BEST BEACHES, EVER Menorca’s beaches are quite simply some of the best we’ve ever seen. Seriously. To the south of the island lay the many amazing unspoilt coves of Mitjana, Macarella, Macarelleta, Turqueta, Binidali and Binigaus. Our pick/s, if we HAD to choose, would be Mitjana, and Macarelleta; both are dreamlike in their composition: pure white sand, turquoise blue waters, dense pine groves, enclosed by sandstone cliffs. To the north, the beaches differ greatly. The sand is darker, the cliffs more pronounced, vegetation sparse, yet the water equally clear. Menorca’s northern beaches are quieter (although maybe not in August – the island’s peak tourism season), which in many ways makes them more appealing. Our pick of the bunch is Cavallaria – 500m long, with incredibly clear water. In many ways, the beaches are reason enough to visit Menorca, yet that would be a shame, because… SUMMER INSPIRATION: 7 AMAZING EUROPEAN DESTINATIONS YOU MUST VISIT THIS SUMMER  THE PACE OF LIFE ON MENORCA IS WONDERFULLY SLOW With a permanent population of just over 76,000, Menorca thankfully doesn’t have the infrastructure in place for mass tourism. Menorca is a ‘slow’ destination, and it’s great. In Menorca, we walked down city streets without feeling like we were on the London tube, we had our own slice of brilliant sand, we never once had to make a dinner reservation, and had miles of hiking paths to ourselves. Locals stopped to chat, a foreign experience for any Londoner, often leading to delightful conversations. Things are just slower in Menorca; it’s an island that ebbs and flows to a different tempo, with locals working in unison to maintain this enjoyable, slower pace. As a tourist, you can feel your heart rate relaxing as you exit the airport.  MENORCA IS A NATURE LOVERS PARADISE Being a UNESCO biosphere reserve is kind of a big deal, and Menorca is one of them. It means the environment is prioritised over socioeconomic development, which has led to the preservation of many areas of the island. Skyscrapers are banned too, so there’s no risk of having your view impeded by a wall of glass and steel! If you’re like us and into your natural activities, there’s a heap to do. The famous Cami de Cavalls hike circles the island, and at 180 km in length, isn’t for the faint hearted. Alternatively, mountain-biking, horse riding and golfing are all possible on the island. In the surrounding crystal clear waters, sailing, kayaking, paddle boarding, windsurfing, and even surfing, is possible. Our favourite activity was definitely swimming – how could we resist those crystal clear waters?   LOVE SPAIN? HOW TO SPEND A WONDERFUL WEEKEND IN SANTANDER, SPAIN  MENORCA IS SMALL ENOUGH TO TRAVEL IN A DAY Menorca is quite small, 47 kms in length, and 17 kms at its widest, and it’s possible to traverse the island in one day. Admittedly, it’ll be a busy day, but done right you’ll be able to pack in a lot of fun –  we spent a day road-tripping around the island and managed to see a lot! A car can be hired for as little as €30 for the day, while fuel should only set you back €30 depending on how far and wide you decide to venture. As a minimum, we recommend exploring the old town of Ciutadella, a swim at the beaches of Cala Mitjana in the south, and Cavallaria in the north, a walk to Favàritx Lighthouse, cheese tasting at Subaida cheese farm (Ctra. Alaior-Arenal Castell, 07730, Alaior, Minorca, Spain), visiting the highest point on the island, El Toro, admiring the white town of Binibecca Vell, cocktails at the Cova d’en Xoroi (Cala N’Porter, Minorca, Spain) cave bar, and dinner and wine at Bodegas Binifadet (Carretera Ses Barraques S/N, 07710, Sant Lluis, Minorca, Spain).   THE PRODUCE ON MENORCA IS EXCEPTIONAL For a small island, the quality and variety of food on Menorca is exceptional. We can safely say we never had a bad meal, even accounting for Mark’s distaste for all things seafood. For those that DO love seafood (Mim), the bounty is endless. Curiously for an island, Menorca’s two famous dishes are cheese and sausage. The British imported Friesian cows in the 1740’s, and over the following years Mahon cheese was perfected. There are many cheese farms dotted throughout the countryside towards El Toro, the best being Subaida (Ctra. Alaior-Arenal Castell, 07730, Alaior, Minorca, Spain). Sobrasada is the local sausage made of pork and red paprika, and by all reports, delicious (being mostly vegetarian meant this was off the menu for us). Other famous Menorcan dishes include oliaigo (Menorcan tomato soup), caldereta (fish stew), and amargos (similar to macaroons). La Minerva (Lugar Moll de Llevant 87, 07701 Mahon, Minorca, Spain), located on a platform in the port of Mahon, was our best meal on the Island. A ridiculously good cheese platter, delicious vegetarian paella, too many mussels, and a mouthwatering dessert concoction of berries and chocolate. If you’re into Gin (who isn’t), Menorca is a brilliant place. A legacy of the British occupation of the island was Menorcan Gin, and you can find and enjoy a Pomada (Menorcan gin with cloudy lemonade) just about anywhere. Warning, they’re extremely ‘moreish’…! COUPLES TRAVEL: 7 REASONS WHY YOU NEED TO TRAVEL WITH YOUR PARTNER  THE TOWN OF CIUTADELLA IS PICTURE PERFECT Ciutadella was actually an afterthought for us – we’d planned on overlooking it to spend more time on Menorca’s glorious beaches. Thankfully, we changed our mind and ended up being blown away by Menorca’s former capital. Formerly under the influence of the Romans, Muslims, Turks and the British, the city was destroyed in 1558 and rebuilt in the 17th century. Little has changed since then, and the old town remains mostly untouched. The cobblestone streets of the old quarter, coupled with pretty pastel facades at every turn make Ciutadella incredibly photogenic. The narrow laneways are filled with medieval, gothic and Moorish architecture, the best example being the 13th century Ciutadella de Menorca cathedral. It is worth noting – this is one part of the island where you can feel the presence of tourism. Fortunately, a quick detour into one of the quaint laneways off the main will have you in peace and quiet. The port is far more picturesque than Mahon, and a just short walk from the old quarter.   BINIBECA VELL IS A PHOTOGRAPHER’S DREAM In the south east of Menorca lies Binibeca, a quaint seaside village made up of gleaming white houses, built to mirror traditional fishing villages of years past. Reminiscent of the Greek island villages made so famous by Instagram, Binibeca is the perfect little town to explore, camera in hand. In fact, we ended up spending far longer here than we expected, such was the lure of the pretty cobbled streets, afternoon shadows and angles. Just remember, this is a village with private dwellings, so act responsibly!   LIKE THIS POST? PIN AND SHARE IT!

Charming and beautiful, Es Castell Menorca is perfect for escaping the mass tourism crowds; foodies for fantastic restaurants favoured by locals by the waterside as well as culture buffs for easy access to Mahon. And a long weekend in Menorca is so easy out of London, so many direct flights to Balerics crystal water and Mediteranean glorious pace of life.

Where to eat. Can Delio, by far the restaurant that we loved most on our Menorcan trips. Our amuse bouches consisted of Minorcan yoghurts served with pistachio and honey with local sausages chorizo like in crunchy fresh pastry – yum! Padron peppers, patatas bravas and Can Delio salad followed, all prepped to perfection.

The black rice was la piece de resistance -squid ink, seafood and aioli. All superbly washed by cava, this had been my favourite restaurant in all my 6 getaways in Menorca, just wow.

Trebol another warmly recommended restaurant by the seafront, family hospitality for 50 years and 3 generations. Booking for dinner in the weekend advisable if you’d like outside seating!

From our base in Son Granot Es Castell Menorca one can taxi easily to Mahon (15minutes ) for history, harbour and more seafront restaurants. You could also walk to Mahon if you want, allow yourself around 30 minutes – simply face the across the harbour, turn left and walk alongside the harbour.

Where to stay Son Granot we reckon is a great pied a terre for peaceful rural charm. The villa is surrounded by greenery and flowers, lavender, bees and peacocks. There’s no service at the hotel apart from breakfast, but if tranquility and privacy are priority, this makes a wonderful stay.

I spent 2 nights with my good friend and we found it delightful and relaxing. I reckon it also works well for families with older kids especially if they are ok to organise themselves for snacks. And the seaside front Cales Fonts is 12 minutes by foot – totally feasible for an after dinner walk.

For rural charm with proper service, head to Sant Joan de Binissaida – a Minorcan finca restored gracefully and with sustainability in mind. We explored on a hot gorgeous Sunday afternoon; drinks and nibbles by the pool. There are bikes for grownups, a playground for the kids just by the the orchard, a restaurant which serves organic meals with vegetables freshly picked from the garden.

We’ve seen the family suite, delightful large terrace overlooking the countrysides and the sea. The living room is chic and has an extendable sofa, the bedroom perfect for parents privacy.

Es Castell has no beach. Our favourite beach nearby is Es Grau next to S’Albufera natural reserve (25minutes – Euro20) for SUP or kayaking in stunning crystal clear waters of the nature reserve.

Lunch at Tamarind by the waterfront is delightful or for sunset one can opt for a simple bar filled with locals – cava, olives, cheese or pizza over sunset.

Alternatively head to Binibequer Vell for more beautiful beaches, restaurants or the new beach bar at Bambu (20m- Euro 15).

Renting a car makes total sense, especially if one has time to explore further the beauty of the North beaches, Ciutadella or to adventure in the Menorca countryside and experience the vineyards, cheese and further rural peace at Hort Sant Patrici.

For more grown ups getaways in Menorca, head to our Casa Ladico article – a delightful base in Mahon ; for holidays with kids, head here; for sailing suggestions in here and for more family holiday based in Llucmacanes head here. And for 2019 hottest opening in Menorca, head to Fontenille, July 12th onwards the bookings are open!
