Minorca, a small island with great character. Biosphere Reserve. Where the traditional Minorcan way of life has not been swept away by mass tourism. Small harbours, sheltered coves, quiet beaches. Minorca, an island with a mysterious prehistoric past whose legacy can be seen over the whole island. Caves, talaiots, taules ... Minorca, the eternal face of the Mediterranean. Within reach. All Minorca's charms are never more than 40 Km away.

I've already spoken about Fornells and its surroundings. However, Minorca is such a small island that you can reach anywhere on the island in less than an hour. From East to West, Minorca measures less than 50Km and at its widest the island only reaches 20Km. To the East lies Mahon, and to the West, Ciutadella. It seem to us that a whole world separates these two very different cities, but for mainlanders it's a short drive of never more than 45Km. On Minorca, any point on the island is the "surroundings" of everywhere else, as the island only measures 700Km2. So we can take a brief look at the whole of Minorca. The whole island being, as it were, the "surroundings" of Fornells.
