Menorca, Spain

Smaller and quieter than its neighbor Mallorca , Menorca is the second largest of the Balearic islands. Situated just 34 km / 21 miles from Mallorca , the island of Menorca has many family-friendly resorts and almost as many beaches as Mallorca and Ibiza combined. Peaceful holiday resorts line the south coast of Menorca and a string of quiet fishing villages are along the island s rougher northern shore. There are plenty of tourism and tourist information offices situated in the towns of Menorca , providing current information about local Menorca tourist attractions, beaches, museums, local events and festivals, sightseeing and general Menorca tourist information.

Largely protected from development, Menorca is not your typical package holiday resort. The island's small towns and villages offer a fairly secluded and relaxed holiday, even during the peak season. Menorca has many wonderful attractions, a real haven for nature-lovers. Menorca is a very verdant island, with pinewoods and wide, lush fields for the island's innumerable grazing cattle. Cycling tracks criss-cross the meadows and pastures, offering breathtaking views of the island and the bay front. The north coast of Menorca is rocky and rough, while the south coast abounds in sandy coves, with fine, golden sand, sheltered by cliffs and gorges.

One of the best party beaches in Spain. Ibiza, the smallest of the three Balearic Islands, attracts thousands of people from all over Europe every year. Lying near its bigger sister Mallorca, Ibiza itself is an internationally leading tourist destination. Nicknamed the capital of electronic music, Ibiza has one of the best nightlife offers of Europe with several discos, bars and night clubs which have gained international reputation particularly because of the numerous intense dance music sessions and parties held during the summer months.
