It may only be a small island (just 15km wide and 52km long), but Menorca is perfectly formed. Of the three main Balearics islands, it remains the least affected by tourism, so much so that UNESCO has declared it an official biosphere reserve. With an interior largely untouched and a coastline boasting almost as many beaches as its sister islands put together, Minorca is a place for those wanting to relax and soak up the sunshine. Lively nightlife and large tourist developments are visibly absent; instead visitors are treated to untouched countryside and peace and quiet.

Menorca is covered in prehistoric ruins mostly dating from the Talayotic period (2000 to 1000 BC). You can see the structures throughout the island, but the more fertile south has a particularly high number.
