What is the difference between the beaches in the north and south of Menorca?

The beaches in the south stand out for their white sand, crystal-clear waters and coves surrounded by pine trees, while those in the north offer wilder landscapes, reddish rock and a less developed coastline.

Do I need a car to discover Menorca’s coves?

Not if you only want to enjoy the area where you’re staying, but a car is very useful for exploring the island. Some coves also require walking or using specific transport, especially during the high season.

Why should you check the wind before choosing a beach in Menorca?

Because it can significantly affect sea conditions. As a practical rule, beaches in the south tend to be better with northerly winds, and those in the north with southerly winds.

When is the best time to visit Menorca to enjoy its coves with fewer people?

Lanzarote enjoys mild temperatures and little rainfall, making it a great holiday destination all year round.
