Accessible Holidays in Menorca

Menorca offers fantastic disabled-friendly holidays, with a great selection of accessible resorts and adapted accommodation to choose from.

Menorca’s shimmering sea is surrounded by 46 sandy beaches, many of which are beautiful deserted coves and most of which have great quality restaurants and bars. The classic Mediterranean climate complements these sandy paradises and helps to fill the bays with tourists both throughout and out of the season – even at its coolest, the island is quite temperate, and at the height of summer, it’s a sun-worshipper’s dream. Most of the beach resorts have wheelchair accessibility with facilities like wooden pathways across the beach, accessible toilets and changing room areas and even beach wheelchairs for rental at some.

While the resort is most popular during the summer when the streets fill with revellers seeking the island’s party culture, in the off-season it becomes a more wholesome and sometimes cultural destination, full of things to see and do.

The comparative absence of overdevelopment allows visitors to enjoy a more rural set of scenery that includes over 100 prehistoric ruins which make Menorca Europe’s capital for prehistoric sites. Multilingual guides will often be on hand to teach visitors about the island’s history and culture. The island offers a great choice of accessible days out around the Island, not least the local zoo, wine tasting at a local vineyard and an accessible equestrian show.

Although visitors will be able to find many different European cuisines on their wheelchair-friendly holidays in Menorca, the highlights are often focused on fresh seafood – the island’s signature dish is caldereta de llagosta, a lobster stew that was originally prepared by local fishermen on their boats.
