Tour Menorca from your desktop |  |
Few holiday destinations have managed to retain their original charm, attraction and culture under the pressure of tourism. Menorca is one of the few exceptions and is typically less than a 2.5 hour flight away for our guests.
The island of Menorca boasts more miles of golden beaches than neighbours Mallorca and Ibiza added together,thats fact. There is even a place (in the east of Menorca) called Shangri-La! This second fact seems quite apt, Menorca being many visitor's favourite of the Balearics; the first fact is just one of the many reasons why.
As well as being considered a unique beach paradise, Menorca is considerably quieter than Mallorca or Ibiza, and so perhaps more suited to those with young families and couples wanting beautiful scenery with select nighlife . Even those few purpose built holiday resorts are peaceful, as there is no over emphasis on loud nightlife here. Menorca is rather more tuned into relaxation and rest than dancing into the early hours, but there are still naturally plenty of places where you can let your hair down if you wish to. A key reason for this is that Menorca has remained largely development-free, retaining all of the natural beauty that makes the island such a favourite. It is a green and pleasant land with lush open fields, pine forests and an untamed northern coastline dotted with pretty fishing villages.
Too often you will find that holiday destinations force you to make compromises. If you wanted safe beaches complete with all facilities then you would have to forget dreaming about lying practically alone on hidden virgin beaches.

If you wanted to enjoy sun filled mediteranean lifestyle, browsing and shopping, or dancing the night away then you would have to forget about walking or cycling in beautiful, ever changing landscapes, alive with wildlife and history.

Seeing is believing. Note how sparsely populated Menorca is and just how many beaches there are!
Before you ask or are new to this, the Satellite images are not Live ( you're not moving a Satellite around as my worried mother thought at first. :-) ) The images, I gather, are taken from 1999 onwards depending on how detailed they are.
These images were obviously taken in Summer so its browner rather than greener. Note some parts of the island are visible in greater detail (e.g Cala en Porter ). My theory is there were military installations close to such areas! Anyway enjoy it!
