What to do and see in Menorca, Balearic Islands: The Best Tours

April 4, 2022 Renato Branum

As the first place in Spain to see the sunrise, Minorca is like the country’s ambassador to the morning. Beaches here are beautiful and, surprisingly, relatively empty. The jewel-colored water is a magnet for waterskiers, windsurfers and sailors. Playa De Binigaus beach is perfect for families, while Cala Mitjana is an idyllic spot for romance. Head to the town of Alaoir to nibble on some fresh local cheese or turn back time in the charming fishing village of Fornells.

The sky of Menorca is unique in Europe and the Mediterranean, in the different observation points of the island you can clearly see the Milky Way, stars, planets, constellations and endless objects in the night sky that due to light pollution no longer they are unaffordable elsewhere. The activity consists of a complete astronomical observation, with a theoretical introduction, a guided tour of the sky by a Starlight guide, observation of the main celestial objects at night with a laser pointer, astronomical binoculars and state-of-the-art telescopes to enjoy the Milky Way, Galaxies , Nebulae and the brightest stars. All this together with the mythology of the constellations and the stories of the Menorca sky.

We were able to enjoy and know the map of the sky of Menorca, the stories that emerged from the constellations at different times, as well as anecdotes and more technical knowledge about the stars. From the first second we enter a path to a cornered place, which promises to be magical, to the last observation through the telescope, everything becomes a unique experience. We leave a little wiser, but motivated to know more, and eager to repeat, and greatful for a good and sincere treatment.

If you are or are planning to come to Menorca and you like to discover new sensations, see new things and you have no physical contraindications (pregnancy or previous pneumothorax), you should not miss doing a diving experience with equipment. The diving baptism consists of a theoretical preparation that is received online or directly with the diving professional, the equipment with all the equipment to dive, a walk dive under the water of 30 to 40 minutes and the explanation of what has been done and what has been seen. Always accompanied by a professional, during your first diving experience, also called a dive baptism, you will experience weightlessness "fly like a bird under water" and it will allow you to see animals and plants live that until now you can only see in documentaries. Sharing that experience as a couple or as a family will make you feel new things in common.

Inclusions: Use of SCUBA equipment, Private transportation

Exclusions: Soda/Pop

We booked four "Beginners scuba diving" experience, on November 2019 for this May 2020. Because of this global lockdown wasn't possible to travel to Menorca, unlike other businesses in Spain, these people only took a few hours to send the money back to me after being requested for a refund. Even though the experience did not take place, I can say they are so reliable and responsible company. More than happy to carry out the experience in the future.

My daughter and her husband had another excellent tour with Jeep Safari with the same guide Peter who was fantastic as always. He is full of knowledge about the island with lots of passion about what he does and tells you about. He took us to places we had never seen or even new existed on the island before and then to end the day we went to a peaceful place, sitting overlooking the sea, listening to soft guitar music watching the sun go down, it was surreal, a wonderful day, would thoroughly recommend it and would like to say a big thank you to Peter for making it an afternoon and evening to remember. Well done Jepp Safari we will be back with you again ????
