Going overland

Menorca is connected to the Spanish mainland by several ferry routes. A lazy journey through France, Spain and then to Menorca is an interesting alternative, especially for non-flyers! Trasmediterránea run regular ferry services from Barcelona and Valencia, most going via Palma (Mallorca).

Inter-island ferries are also available: Iscomar runs a service from Ciutadella to Port d'Alcúdia, Mallorca. Cape Balear also offer a fast catermaran service (passenger only) from Ciutadella, plus regular inter-island excusions - telephone +34 902 10 04 44.
