FAQs: Pet-friendly holidays in Menorca
Which beaches in Menorca are dog-friendly?
If you're visiting Menorca in the peak season with your pet, it's a good idea to look for holiday lettings in Menorca near Es Migjorn Gran. That's because the best dog beaches in Menorca are all located in this village. Cala Escorxada and Cala Fustam are open to dogs all year round. Dogs can also visit Binigaus, but only between the hours of 7 pm and 9 am. Before you set out for your evening walk, keep in mind that Binigaus is also a nudist beach. In Mahón, dogs are welcome on Cala Biniparratx. For easy access, visit Menorca in the off-season. Between October and March, the rules are relaxed, and dogs can enjoy all of Menorca's beaches.
What are the laws that every dog owner should know before travelling to Menorca?
In Spain, you are legally obliged to clean up after your pet. You should carry bags with you to scoop up any mess, as well as a bottle of water to squirt on wet patches. Beware: some visitors to the Balearic Islands have been hit with fines of €300 for not cleaning up, and the police have been known to use DNA testing to find the guilty canine. You'll need to keep your dog on a leash in most public spaces, particularly in cities. Before travelling, you should also check any breed-specific regulations. Some breeds of dogs must be muzzled in public.
Where can you find dog-friendly cafés in Menorca?
In general, most of Menorca's cafés and restaurants will have no problem with well-behaved dogs, as long as you stay on the terrace. It's a good idea to bring your own bowl, and the staff will usually be happy to fill it up with water for your pup. For a café that specifically welcomes dogs, try Pipet & Co in Mahón. Specialising in brunch dishes, this is a great place to stop in the morning. Its desserts and cakes are all homemade, and simply must be tried! Elsewhere, Es Bruc in the town of Sant Tomàs is a dog-friendly restaurant, close to the pet beaches of Es Migjorn Gran.
What's the best time of year to visit Menorca with your dog?
Menorca has milder summers than Mallorca and Ibiza, with temperatures rarely going far above 30°C. However, it's still best to avoid the summer for your holiday in Menorca with a dog if you can. For one thing, dog beaches are limited in the summer months. For another, although the temperatures are not extreme, there are areas of the island with very little shade. Many of the trails that make up the Camí de Cavalls are totally unshaded. For a more comfortable experience, visit in the off-season. You could even come for Christmas in Menorca with your dog, and spend Christmas morning taking a walk on the beach.
Is your dog welcome on public transport in Menorca?
Buses are the only form of public transport in Menorca. Guide dogs are welcome on all buses, but other pets will need to depend on the driver's discretion. In general, dogs in carriers are always welcome and small dogs are usually permitted, but large dogs may not be allowed to board. If you're calling for a taxi, advise the driver in advance. Some drivers will allow dogs in their vehicle, often for a supplemental fee.
