Best time to go to Menorca
Visit Menorca in February and youll be rewarded with birdsong-filled woodlands and blankets of almond and orange blossom that signal the start of spring.
Menorca has a typical Mediterranean climate, with scorching hot summers and mild yet wet and windy winters. The best time to go to Menorca is May-June or September-October. The weather in July and August can be too hot and the south coast beaches are packed. June and September are considered to be the islands festival months, with every town and village holding their own celebrations. Junes Fiesta de Sant Joan in Ciutadella is one to watch if youre into all things equestrian, while the International Jazz Festival and opera season in Mahon always attract lots of local Menorcans as well as visitors from mainland Spain and Europe.

Menorca travel advice
Christian Locke is the head of product for our partner Headwater. Heres what Christian recommends if youre considering Menorca as a holiday destination:
Where to stay
We use an independently owned, family-run hotel in Menorca thats been converted from a former farmhouse. There are lovely views over the countryside and out towards the sea.
Getting around the island
Hiring a car is the best way to get around the island and discover lots of different local restaurants. This can make a big boost to the local economy and also means your money isnt going into just one hotel or resort chain.
