Menorca

Menorca has a reputation for being laid back, and as such has become a favourite with young families and those looking for a relaxing holiday. It is also popular with sporting types and has some of the best snorkelling and scuba diving in the Med. Menorca’s busiest resort is Cala’n Forcat situated on the west coast. It has three small sandy inlets where you can dive from the rocks and explore the clear warm waters.

A favourite resort amongst families with young children is Cala Blanca. Nestled in a rocky stretch of coastline below pined topped cliffs the white sandy beach is completely safe for swimming and paddling. On the southwest coast lies the resort of S’Algar, a virtual Mecca for energetic visitors who like to mix their favourite spot with plenty of sunshine and good living. Menorca may not be the wildest of places but there are plenty bustling bars and restaurants to keep you happy until well into the night but above all it’s a great place for getting away from it all.
