The easternmost Balearic island dances to a different tune than its rowdier neighbours. This tranquil haven boasts sparkling blue seas, white- and golden-sand beaches that are blessed by warming sunshine for the vast majority of the year.

Its coastal cities are full of distinctive character, its resorts family-friendly and low-key and, if you head for the interior, you’ll discover a refreshingly rural island. Menorca’s landscapes are distinguished by 40,000 miles of dry-stone walls that criss-cross its fields, traverse its rolling hills and demarcate its whitewashed villages.

In 1993, Unesco declared Menorca a Biosphere Reserve to preserve its important environmental areas and its mysterious Bronze Age sites.

Today there are plenty of cheap flights to be found to discover the beauty of Menorca for yourself.

When to book cheap flights to Menorca

Menorca’s peak season follows the sun. When the weather is around 28 o C, between June and September, the most popular time to visit coincides with both the UK school holidays and a number of local events and festivals.

In general, direct flights are cheaper either side of the peak season in May and late September, although due to the sheer volume of chartered and scheduled flights, prices often remain competitive throughout the busy summer months too.

Yet, if you are searching for bargain-priced flights you are much better off considering October through to the middle of April, when there are fewer tourists. The weather may be cooler but it’s still warm enough if sunbathing isn’t your main priority.

How to find the best flight deals to Menorca

You can also check if ‘Nearby airports’ offer a more convenient flight time or cheaper price. If you’re flying from a London airport it’s always worth selecting ‘All London airports’, rather than just the one, to see if alternative airports in the capital offer lower-priced fares.

Its size makes taxi a viable option to see the sights too, but the cheapest way to get around is by bus. Menorca’s bus network connects most of its towns, resorts and sights. The main bus route links Mahon to Ciutadella, the two main cities in Menorca, and the service runs once an hour.

The Old Town has beautiful architecture and is a delight to stroll through, taking in local markets and trendy boutiques.

Walkers will want to head out into the island’s coves and gorges which shelter a beautiful profusion of very rare flowers. Others may wish to avail themselves of the windsurfing, sailing and horse riding opportunities available.

And some will, of course, find their ideal beach and throw down a towel to simply soak up the Balearic sun.

Top 5 airlines serving from London to Menorca

The whole flight was coughing and farting all the way. It was impossible to breathe. If people are traveling sick they should either not be allowed to fly or made wear masks

I will never fly vueling. 1h30 delayed, connexion missed with the crew closing the boarding in front of us. 40 people missed the Barcelona-Orly connexion. hours waiting for rebooking and hotel.. inadmissible

3 hr flight from Barcelona to Gran Canaria. Ŵent according to plan No issues with staff oŕ flight. Many people includiñg us could not get luggage self checķ in termìnals to work. Had to wait in check in line.

The communication about the delay could have been better before and during the flight. Also, this online form could have less bugs. It is almost impossible to type in this window.

Boarding was very poor as the flight was initially delayed. We were told the flight would be at 21:40. We were with our 10 month baby who was sleeping. I received an email from Kayak which said the flight was now due to take off at 21:04. When we checked the screens at Gatwick we were told the gate was closed. The lack of communication was extremely poor and we had to run with our baby and there were many other passengers, including elderly people, also running to the gate. When we got to the gate, the staff had no reasons for the poor communication.

We got to the airport 2 hours before the flight. We waited in a line to check our bags onto the flight for an hour, even despite having checked in online, as there weren't enough self check terminals allocated to Vueling (yet loads of empty BA ones right next to them). There also weren't enough staff, making them stressed and rude. We had to try and rush through security to get to our gate, which they announced as gate 35 at first and then changed it after ten minutes with no announcement to anyone in the airport that it had changed. So we then had to rush to the correct gate to arrive just as boarding started. It was a thoroughly stressful process and one travelling couple almost missed boarding because of it. The flight boarding and the flight itself werre fine, the staff were polite, but I was dehydrated due to the airport and had to buy a bottle of water as they didn't offer free drinks.

It was a short flight but the seat was very straight. I didn’t need any service, but wifi was not available. In resume, a normal service. Nice, the punctuality. Thanks

Last time bucking this company if I would know I wouldn’t do it, they made me lose my flight

Le vol et l'embarquement se sont bien déroulé, mais une fois arrivé à destination nous n'avons pas trouvé notre valise. Nous avons été voir au guichet pour en savoir plus et c'est à ce moment qu'on nous dit que par manque de place dans la soute notre bagage est resté à Paris et sera enregistré sur le vol de demain et qu'il faudra revenir le chercher le lendemain à 16h. Le lendemain à 16h personne ne fût capable de nous renseigner et on nous à donné 3 versions différentes de la procédure à suivre. Finalement nous avons réussit à récupérer notre valise après 26h de retard. On nous à donné un numéro pour contacté la compagnie mais en appelant le numéro dédié à la France on tombe sur des personnes qui ne parlent qu'anglais ou espagnol ou bien on nous raccroche au nez.

I liked the regular updates and appreciated the automatic online checkin which didn’t work for our Vueling flight so I had to do this myself.

The trip itself was good. I have given only good as rating, because my first flight has been cancelled by a different airline and that caused disruption in my trip. I spent over ten hours in Luton airport and that caused me high tiredness, sickness, because of the very early initial trip. easyJet staff has been professional and friendly.

Very pleasant crew, working hard on a full plane. Delay by a broken seat. However crew made back 60% of the delay.

Delayed and then further delayed with no announcement made so that all the passengers (who were standing in the jetty) could hear. We stood there for well over 20 minutes. We were further delayed through weather but no one explained that to us until the pilot made an announcement when finally on board

easyJet need to ensure that whether pre-booking seats or not children aren’t split from their parents the crew spent the majority of boarding asking passengers to move to accommodate two families. Surely the system identifies minors on a booking !!!!! It was all very frustrating to watch and caused delays which I’m sure cost easyJet more in the long run rather that automatically allocating families with minors seats together automatically.

As you would expect from a budget airline Left and arrived on time, no frills, not even a glass of water offered But you get what you pay for

I had an emergency escape seat. The attendant gave the extrA briefing to my side of the aisle but didnt direct it at all to the other where my wife was sitting

Boarding great. Didn’t eat or drink so can not comment.

Total jobs worths over carry on bags, charged £96 extra for bags that were clearly hand luggage

3 hours delayed Don’t understand why when you have paid for ‘speedy boarding’ they call you forward to then make you stand fir another 20 minutes in a confined space before boarding the plane.

The pilot did everything possible to make up the 35 minute delay. His communications were honest, prompt and positive throughout.

Speakers were blaring. It's like being in a Moroccan market and you keep getting shouted at with what's for sale

What can you say Ryanair get you there,no frills Not so cheap anymore ..... but what is now days! Would use again as always. Good flight times for us.

3 hours delay, non comunicated until past the time of original boarding, no assistance, witnessed land crew shouting at a passenger

Very unpleasant staff, disgusting service, ignoring requests, refusal to help

Letting people wait outside for boarding in the rain and almost 0 degrees for a high temperature destination is very customer unfriendly

Late again rude staff at gate bullying passengers made us stand in the cold 3degrees for 40 mins before they let us board

The usual average Ryanair flight, but we landed 20 min before due time, which was very good.

Largas colas para el check-in, por seguridad, sin explicación, el equipaje de mano pequeño tuvo que pasar a bodega,

Enjoyed our flight with Ryanair to Arrecife. Flight boarded pretty much on time, crew were welcoming and very good. Generally good for a frequent low cost flight, Seats could however have been more comfortable.

Toulouse Alicante, excellent. But the 2 next fligth by Air Europa canceled. Bad bad

We paid to have overhead carry-on baggage. When we got to the gate we were told that our carry on bags would need to be checked and go below because the flight was full. Notably we were nowhere near the last people to board and about 30 other passengers also had to check their carry-on bags. Other than that the flight was fine.

Very bad plain although I paid A business class ticket I was stuck in a stiff fixed seat without any entertainment or Wi Fi for 5 hours I will never ever book a flight on British airline.

Self check in Kiosk did not recognize that I had prepaid for my luggage. This caused a 40 minute delay even though I had my British Airways email receipt for the prepaid luggage.

Crew were very friendly and helpful. They explained to us in detail the delay in our takeoff due to the storm that rolled in from Belfast and did their best to make up the time. Always great to fly BA!

Staff were very helpful. The free WiFi for messages was also very useful to keep in touch

Crew was more interested on looking at their phones than welcoming passengers during boarding.

The crew was very attentive and kept busy serving a variety of treats!

Terrible. Missed my flight to final destination because of delayed British Airways flight. Had to spend 12 hours in airport and $1500 for new plane tickets

The crew on board were all very pleasant and happy to help. The flight had the old business class seats. The departure board in the business lounge did not update and kept on saying ' gate open' but never said boarding. When I got nervous about the departure time and walked to the gate I was told off rudely for being late.

Offered vegetable curry when it was actually tofu which I don’t care for.

The flight was delayed over 2 hours, we should off left the plane2 late passengers as it’s not fair on everyone who’s followed the rules.

Dreamliner. Yes great if maintained. I didn't see anyones screen work consistently during either of our flights. Worse was their ability to not only dump you out of premium but separate couples and seat someone's carer at the opposite end of the aircraft. This poor gentleman had no hand so his partner who assists him, being seated at the other end of the aircraft, well that really showed us all what Tui think :( It was fairly dire all in all, they advertise all the perks of the dreamliner only in reality you don't have the features and they change the windows and colours to suit their constant sales pitches. Ironically they were so low on stock for the return flight that all their sales pitches were a waste of time! Their contract only favours them and 'operational changes' well they cover every excuse and Tui use it. Surprisingly we haven't reinstalled the Tui app or booked with them since. It's a shame as I rated them highly during the pandemic.

One flight attendant not wearing a mask over nose, 50% of passengers not either, and no effort to correct. Boarding was very late with no information - lots of standing around waiting.

Healthcare for UK nationals visiting Spain

How to get state healthcare when you’re on holiday or travelling to Spain.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) travel advice

See the latest health advice for UK travellers following the outbreak of coronavirus (COVID-19).

Sign up for Spain travel advice email alerts.

This information is about visiting Spain. There’s different guidance for healthcare if you’re going to live, study or work in Spain .

When you travel to Spain you should have either:

• a European Health Insurance Card ( EHIC )
• a UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC)
• travel insurance with appropriate healthcare cover

An EHIC or GHIC is not a replacement for travel insurance. Make sure you have both before you travel.

What EHIC and GHIC covers

An EHIC or GHIC covers state healthcare, not private treatment.

With an EHIC or GHIC you can get medically necessary treatment in Spain on the same basis as a Spanish citizen. This means that you’ll get healthcare services for free or at a reduced cost.

An EHIC or GHIC is not a replacement for travel insurance – it does not cover everything, such as mountain rescue or being flown back to the UK (medical repatriation). Make sure you have both before you travel to Spain.

You may need to pay in full for treatment if you do not have an EHIC , GHIC or provisional replacement certificate (PRC).

How to apply

Apply for a GHIC for free on the NHS website.

How to use it

Show your EHIC or GHIC when you visit any state hospital or doctor. You cannot use either card for private healthcare.

Find out what an EHIC covers in Spain.

Find an English-speaking doctor in Spain.

If you do not have your EHIC or GHIC with you

You’ll need to apply for a Provisional Replacement Certificate (PRC) if you need treatment and do not have your EHIC or GHIC, or your card is lost or stolen abroad.

Call the Overseas Healthcare Services. This is part of the NHS Business Services Authority (BSA).

NHS Overseas Healthcare Services Telephone: +44 (0)191 218 1999 Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm

Travelling with a health condition

Buy travel insurance with healthcare cover for your condition. Your EHIC or GHIC will cover medically necessary treatment.

Read the Money and Pensions Advice Service guidance for buying travel insurance for people with pre-existing medical conditions.

Bring any documents about your health condition or what medication you’re taking.

If you need to have treatment while you’re in Spain, you may need to pre-arrange it. For example, if you need oxygen treatment or dialysis.

You cannot take some products prescribed for health conditions with you into the EU. These include special food required for medical reasons containing meat or dairy. There are some exemptions. Read more about taking animal products, food or plants with you into the EU on the Your Europe website.

Speak to your doctor in the UK for advice before you travel.

Getting prescriptions

You can use a UK prescription to get medicines, including special food required for medical reasons, in Spain.

Prescription medicines are not free in Spain. With an EHIC or GHIC you get a reduced rate, but you’ll still pay:

• 50% of the prescription price
• 10% of the prescription price if you have a UK State Pension ‒ you may need to show proof that you’re a pensioner to pay this rate

These prescription charges are non-refundable.

If you need oxygen therapy during your visit

You can get oxygen therapy with an EHIC or a GHIC, but you need to arrange this before you travel.

You must send a written request to the Spanish health authority in the area you plan to visit at least one month before you travel.

Find out how to request oxygen therapy in Spain. This guide includes:

• a letter template in Spanish that you can download and complete
• a list of contact details for Spanish health authorities

Bringing medicine with you

You need a letter to prove your medicine is prescribed to you if it contains a ‘controlled drug’. You may need to show this at the border when you’re entering or leaving the UK and Spain.

You may also need a licence for controlled drugs if:

• your trip is longer than 3 months
• you’re travelling with more than 3 months’ supply

Read more about travelling with controlled medicines .

You should also contact your nearest Spanish consulate before you travel to find out if you need to apply for a Spanish licence.

Travelling to have planned treatment

You cannot use an EHIC or GHIC for non-urgent planned treatment. For example, if you’re going abroad to give birth.

Read the NHS guide to going abroad for medical treatment .

Updated to reflect the rules on taking food prescribed for medical reasons to EEA countries and Switzerland.

Updated page to reflect that European Health Insurance Cards (EHIC) will continue to be accepted in Spain from 1 January 2021.

Updated section: ‘Using an EHIC from 1 January 2021’. Students and people with a registered S1 can now apply for a new UK European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) that will remain valid from 1 January 2021.

Holidays in Menorca

For a blissful holiday in the Balearics, look no further than the magnificent island of Menorca. More peaceful than the larger Balearic Islands of  Majorca  and  Ibiza , a trip to Menorca is perfect if you enjoy relaxing holidays that still offer plenty of culture. This island doesn't need to shout about its appeal; as soon as you step off the plane, you'll see why it's such a hit with all types of holidaymakers. It's worth saying that you might fall hopelessly in love with Menorca!

The glorious summer temperatures of up to 25°C are perfect for a spot of sunbathing on the beach before you stop at a local bar for a cooling glass of sangria. Or, for a more adventurous day, you can get involved with the thrilling beach watersports. You will be spoiled for choice with the fantastic selection of beaches on your Menorca holiday - there are over 100 on the island for you to enjoy! If you're keen to experience ultimate relaxation, why not visit one of the secluded bays and have a dip in the clear blue seas? When you fancy a break from the beach, you'll find lots of stunning Gothic churches, monuments and prehistoric remains across Menorca to admire. Grab your camera and head to Mount Toro to capture the stunning 17th century Sanctuary of the Mare de Deu del Toro.

In Menorca, you'll find the popular resorts of Santo Tomas, Son Bou, Ciutadella and Cala'n Bosch, which each have their own unique characteristics so there's definitely a resort for everyone! A holiday in Menorca's south coastal resort of Santo Tomas is perfect if you want to relax by the beach. Surrounded by gorgeous dunes, you can leisurely stroll through the pretty promenade and find a chic bar or restaurant to stop for a cheeky cocktail or a bite to eat. In Santo Tomas, there's also a fabulous choice of activities to do, including tennis and horse riding. Son Bou is a picturesque strip of golden sand and turquoise waters. Just imagine how good it would feel to kick off your shoes and dip your feet in the crystal-clear seas! Son Bou is very popular with families and friends who love activities like jet skiing and scuba diving as well as the entertaining nightlife. In the evening, you can explore the bustling bars and soak up the thrilling atmosphere.

Ciutadella stands out from the other Balearic holiday resorts. The former capital of Menorca, there are plenty of historic treasures to admire if you fancy embracing the local culture. Just don't forget your camera! In the evening, admire the Italian-style 17th century architecture as you follow the quaint cobbled streets to the harbour and enjoy the freshly-caught fish. Or, why not visit Mahon, the island's capital today. Then there's Cala‘n Bosch, a modern resort on the south-west coast of Menorca. An interesting way to see the resort is to hop on the leisurely mini train that runs around the resort and through the other districts.

If you can tear yourself away from the beautiful beaches, you'll find a good choice of excursions: Head to Mount Toro, with the 17th century Sanctuary of the Mare de Deu del Toro at its peak, or Mahon, the pretty island capital. There are Gothic churches, monuments, fortresses, prehistoric remains, smart harbours and Neolithic towns scattered around the island.

Freshly caught Mediterranean fish is a Menorcan speciality, as are traditional Spanish dishes. Still, in larger resorts, you'll find a good range of international restaurants, catering to plenty of tastes. Many hotels offer half board or all inclusive options, so you don't even need to leave your hotel for dinner.

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

British tourist dies after getting into difficulty swimming in front of his wife on holiday

Share this with

A British tourist has drowned during a holiday with his wife in Menorca.

The 70-year-old man was taking a dip at Son Bou beach, the island’s longest, on its south coast when the drama happened.

Other beachgoers spotted him in difficulty and raced into the water to try to assist him while others rang emergency services.

Emergency medical responders spent more than half an hour trying to revive him when they reached the scene but were unable to save him.

Local reports said the unnamed tourist’s wife had been with him at the time but stayed on the shoreline while he went into the sea.

They are understood to have travelled to Menorca to celebrate his birthday. They were staying at a property on a residential estate in Sant Lluis a short drive from the beach where the tragedy occurred.

Local reports said a post-mortem had confirmed drowning as the cause of death.

The incident occurred around 5pm on Monday but the man’s nationality has only just been made public. Son Bou beach is around two miles long and is a reference on the island because of its clean and crystalline waters and white sand.

In October 2022 a British man drowned at a private swimming pool in Menorca.

A maintenance man reportedly discovered his body floating in the water.

The 64-year-old Brit is said to have owned the property where he was found dead.
