How is the weather in Menorca?
Menorca has a mild Mediterranean climate. The best time for a Menorca boat hire is between the months of May and October, where the temperature ranges from 18 to 30 degrees celsius. The hottest and busiest months are July and August. For less crowds and slightly cooler temperature, visit during the shoulder season, in May, June, September, and October.
It is also possible to visit in the winter, however beware of the wind. The Tramuntana wind comes from the north and can be incredibly strong. We highly recommend you hire a skipper if you want to sail during the winter months.
What to do in Menorca?
Given Menorca's small size, it's easy to explore the entire coastline. A week-long Menorca yacht rental will be enough time to fully explore the island and get a taste of the region's famed cuisine. Experienced sailors could even go island-hopping with their Menorca boat charter to Mallorca, Ibiza or Formentera.
Although you can start from any one of Menorca's fine ports and well-serviced marinas, most visitors will choose to depart from the capital, Mahon, because of its transport links on arrival and departure. A famed destination in its own right, Mahon is a great hub with popular beaches.
