The Balearic island of Menorca is the quieter, unspoilt version of its big sisters Majorca and Ibiza.
While it is partly known for its traditional summer fiestas, which take place in different towns around the island all summer long (with origins dating back to the 14th century!) it’s really the place for those who enjoy a calmer, slower pace of life.
Aside from its traditional fiestas, Menorca is better visited for its white-sand bays such as Pregonda and Cala Macarella, clear, turquoise water and more gentle activities like walking, cycling or horse-riding. With a coastline punctuated by beautiful coves and a landscape awarded the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve status, strewn with ancient stone monuments and an estimated 70,000km of dry-stone walls, this is an island for the nature lovers, and anyone looking for a little rest and relaxation.
With a range of accommodation, from residential areas to private villas, hotels and resorts, Punta Prima has a lot of activity and a lot to explore nearby! The beach is one of the largest on the island, and furthermore there is a free toddlers play area near the beach car park, with shops, restaurants and supermarkets along the promenade. The local town of Sant LLuis can provide yet more amenities, and the S'Algar, a water sports centre, is around 15 minutes away by car.
