10 Historical & Heritage Tours in Menorca That You Shouldn't Miss

January 1, 2022 Moriah Teneyck

As the first place in Spain to see the sunrise, Minorca is like the country’s ambassador to the morning. Beaches here are beautiful and, surprisingly, relatively empty. The jewel-colored water is a magnet for waterskiers, windsurfers and sailors. Playa De Binigaus beach is perfect for families, while Cala Mitjana is an idyllic spot for romance. Head to the town of Alaoir to nibble on some fresh local cheese or turn back time in the charming fishing village of Fornells.

We visited only the museum and we found it terrible and full of dissected animals. Children can be too impressed and sad. It's not a modern museum but an old collection of dissected animals.
