8Menorca, Spain
Menorca offers a quieter alternative to some of Spain’s better-known Balearic Islands. Its landscape combines turquoise coves, dry-stone walls, pine forests and peaceful rural roads.
The island is ideal for travelers who prefer slow mornings and unplanned afternoons. You can spend hours at a secluded cove, stop for a long lunch in a small town and finish the day watching the sunset beside the Mediterranean.
Ciutadella, with its historic streets and atmospheric harbor, is particularly enjoyable in the evening. Menorca’s slower rhythm makes it easy to forget what day of the week it is.
