Where to sleep in Menorca

50 Km separate one side of the island from the other, and in any of them you will be able to find the best accommodation to enjoy exploring the local architecture, customs and traditions that other cultures, such as the British or the French, have left on their way.

Since the most beautiful beaches here are the ones that have not been altered by us yet, this means that you won't find any civilization or accommodation anywhere near them, which makes historical towns like Maó, the capital of the island and where you will also find the airport, an ideal place to stay, and enjoy of the many beaches, fishing port, and many other tourist activities that you can do here. Ciutadella is also a perfect destination for your stay thanks t the combination of nightlife, culture and history you will encounter in its historical center, and in the narrow streets that used t be occupied by palaces back in the day. Another great option, especially if you are travelling with children, is Cala en Porter, more in the south of the island where, apart from its beautiful beaches, has a beach cove right in front of the sea, where you can also have a drink enjoying of the amazing views there.

What to eat

What to eat in Menorca

Even though it is greatly influenced by the gastronomy of the isle of Mallorca, the traditional gastronomy of Menorca has its own, unique, character. Amongst its more popular products are 'ensaimadas', but the traditional 'coca bamba' is another sweet delicacy that you will often see here, as well as the 'formatjada' but, unlike the latter, this one is not sweet but is filled with the two star products of Menorca: the so famous sobrasada' and cheese.

For the main course, you mustn't forget to try the local fish and seafood products, that are included in exquisite dishes such as 'caldereta de langosta', or 'bacalao ab burrida', with some white, 'alioli' sauce on the side. Maó PDO cheese is an example of how traditional and ancient ways of elaborating certain local products has been maintained after centuries in this island, as you can als observe in recipes such as 'carnixulla', a local kind of raw meat sausage that is a mixture of meat and bacon, and whose origin goes back to Roman times.

Combinating gin and tonic with some lemonade you will obtain 'pomada' which is the most typical drink of Menorca, and that we recommend having a glass of, while you wait for the sun to set.

Our festivities

Festivities in Menorca

If there is something that will surely catch your eye during the each of the local festivities of Menorca, that is the presence of horses, usually with a horseman on top doing a balancing act, while the locals encourage the animals to stand up on their feet. And, of course, each rider is dressed on the traditional regional clothes. Ciutadella hosts one of the most popular festivities of this island on June 24 which marks the beginning of summer. From then, and until mid August, each town celebrates its local festivities honouring the virgin and patron saint of Menorca, filling their streets with light and music, up until the early morning hours.

We also recommend checking out the Carreras de Trotones, held in Menorca's racecourses during most weekends.
