coastlines and delicious cuisine. Restaurants abound with traditional Spanish tapas,
and fresh seafood is not to be missed. Spend hours browsing the shops, markets and
stalls, or live it up amidst the island nightlife. Typically Menorcan, evenings are
relaxed, laid back and slow paced. There are a few lively bars and most of the hotels

Menorca is blessed with a typically Mediterranean climate which brings mild, balmy
winters and long hot summers. The summer months of July-September see temperatures
averaging the high twenties and around eleven glorious hours of sunshine a day. The
remaining months see temperatures of around 15-25 degrees Celsius, and the ‘tramontana’
is a northerly wind which visits the island around March.
Not only a heaven of natural landscape and wonderful beaches, the idyllic island of
Menorca has so much more to offer its visitors. Menorca is well known for its collection
of stone monuments that date all the way back to prehistoric times and can be found in
many locations across the island. The historic cities of Mahon and Ciutadella, with
serpentine cobbled streets and picturesque architecture are both wonderful examples of
traditional antiquity.
