Monte Toro

Monte Toro is Menorca’s highest point, with a simply breath taking view. On a very clear day, you may even catch a glimpse of Mallorca. Take a picnic or enjoy coffee or lunch at the cafe at the top.

Do & See

Many visitors immediately head east through the flower-freckled meadow land of the interior to the resorts of Cala en Forcat, Cala en Bosch and Cala Galdana. However, step off the beaten track and you will be rewarded — Mahón (or Maó), an interesting capital with a turbulent history, saw many sea conflicts as the Spanish, British and French grappled for control of this strategically important naval base. The influences of all three cultures, as well as the native Baleriac one, can be seen here today.
