As the saying from the great Cole Porter’s Jazz Age musical juggernaut Anything Goes tells us, “There’s no cure like travel.” For Europeans from colder climates, travel can be a great way to cure those cold weather blues. It should come as little surprise, therefore, that countries like the United Kingdom and Russia see countless nationals vacation in Spain every year. The warm Mediterranean climate can make for a nice break from the rainy British weather or those stereotypical Russian snowstorms.

Every year, Menorca receives roughly 1.4 million visitors, with those two countries combined responsible for a significant chunk of that figure – and its isn’t hard to see why.

Local History

Throughout the ancient world, Menorca was a place of interest for Mediterranean powers such as the Minoan Greeks, Carthaginians, and Romans. A vibrant community of Jews lived there for centuries, existing in a complicated relationship with a series of Spanish, Muslim, and British rulers until 1781, when many emigrated to the south of France. Spain regained control of the island following the Treaty of Amiens in 1802. Nevertheless, that window into its history demonstrates the unique multicultural influences which have acted upon the island, and continue to shape its culture to this day.

Local Climate

While places like Barcelona, Madrid, and Seville get a lot of the hype, Spain’s islands right off the coast of the Mainland make for some of the best warm-weather tropical vacationing this side of the Mediterranean. Enter Menorca. While not as hot as Mainland Spain, Menorca offers a temperate climate year round, with temperatures ranging from 15 to 26 and rarely extremely hot or cold.

What’s more, where Majorica is more built-up and urbanized, Menorca is a natural treasure, being a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
