Stress-free family vacations in Menorca (for you and your children)
Slow down and live the present
After months of impossible schedules, endless after-school activities and weekend traffic jams, the most awaited time of the year arrives: your family holiday. But if you live in a big city in the UK, France or Spain, you may wonder whether you’ll truly get to disconnect. In Menorca, the answer is yes. Here, days are measured in laughter, splashes, and the gentle rhythm of a family holiday. Everything encourages you to slow down and enjoy the moment. Everything seems made to fit families. If you choose the right place to stay with your little ones and plan the right activities, you'll find it is absolutely possible to enjoy a family trip to Menorca without sacrificing your own peace and rest — with no rush, no stress, and full of moments that everyone will remember.

5 slow family experiences to enjoy Menorca together
1Watercolour painting by the sea
Set up a little easel on the beach at Son Xoriguer and let the kids capture the colours of the Mediterranean. A creative, peaceful and very photogenic experience.
2Family snorkelling
Put on your snorkels and explore the waters together. In Son Xoriguer, you’ll spot typical Menorcan fish like obladas and doncellas swimming between the rocks.
3Visit to Sagitario Llocs
Visit the farm: the children will see cows grazing, learn how Mahón-Menorca cheese is made, and enjoy a walk through the countryside.
4Stroll around Cala’n Bosch Marina
Just 800 metres from the hotel, the marina offers small shops, seaside cafés, and in summer, children’s rides and activities that fill the afternoon with fun.
5Walk a family-friendly stretch of the Camí de Cavalls
Start right at Son Xoriguer on a flat and safe trail. Walk under pine trees along the coast and enjoy nature as a family.
Before you pack: practical tips
Stress-free holidays start with the little details. Pack a light backpack with essentials: fresh water, sunscreen, a cap and some healthy snacks. While many Menorcan beaches are equipped, others are more wild — and that’s part of their charm. Having everything handy helps you stay present and enjoy every moment.
If you're travelling with small children, a baby carrier or ergonomic backpack makes short walks a breeze. And don’t forget to book hotel activities (entertainment, theme dinners, workshops) in advance — spots fill up quickly during high season.
Above all, leave room for spontaneity. In Menorca, less is more — or as we say here, poc a poc. Sometimes, the best memories are the ones you didn’t plan for.
