Menorca is a relaxed destination for couples: coves with clear water first thing, a different sunset every day and dinners by the sea in Cales Fonts, Fornells or Ciutadella harbour. The best time is May to October, when the Cova d’en Xoroi is also open.
Coves first thing
Cala Mitjana and Macarella early in the morning, before they fill up, and Cala Pregonda in the north, with its reddish rocks and islets. In summer, Macarella can only be reached by bus or on foot.
Cala Mitjana, Macarella and Cala Pregonda each have a page with how to get there.
Recommended itinerary

A sunset every day

Every spot and how to get there, in sunsets in Menorca.
Dinners by the sea
Cales Fonts, in Es Castell, with tables by the water; Ciutadella harbour, for fish and seafood; and Fornells, for lobster stew. In summer, book.

Nightlife and leisure
Menorca from afternoon to night
A day in the south-east: Binibeca, sunset at the Cova d’en Xoroi and the evening in Maó harbour.
More ideas for two
Kayaking in Fornells bay, a tasting at the Xoriguer distillery, a night at the opera in Maó’s Teatre Principal or a stroll through Binibeca Vell first thing.
Xoriguer, the Teatre Principal and Binibeca Vell have opening times and tips on their pages.
Where to stay
For three days, Ferreries or Es Mercadal, in the middle of the island, keep you close to all three coasts; or stay two nights in Ciutadella and one in Maó.
