Guide to Binisafua

"Satiny sands, luminous seas and a restful, pretty village – what more could you want for a quiet holiday in blissful Menorca?"

Peace and quiet is easy to find in Binisafua because it's everywhere. Dipping its toes in the seas off Menorca's southern coast, there's nothing about this village of red-roofed villas and palm-peppered avenues that's remotely loud or in your face.
That's because the centres of attention here are either the villa pool or the beach. And talking of the latter, you won't be disappointed. A small horseshoe of soft sand clasped between low, pine-topped headlands, it's brilliant for catching the rays and snorkelling in crystalline waters. Take your book, coolbag and lilo and you'll be sorted.
Even if you bore of the same old beach every day, there won't be a problem. One of the beauties of Binisafua is that you're never far from an apparently quieter, better, prettier beach than the last one. Pootle around the coast either side of the village and you'll discover a procession of beautiful, white-sandy bays caught between fragrant pines and turquoise seas.
When you crave something livelier, the nearby whitewashed village of Binibeca Vell obliges with its charming cobbled lanes filled with restaurants and shops. Extend your explorations to original Binibeca, a vision of white set above delicious rocky coves. And for a proper day out, drive to Mahon, the island's picturesque capital.
Whatever the day brings, you'll welcome the peace of Binisafau on your return. Make the most of it by dining at an al fresco restaurant, with the candlelight and chatter mingling beautifully together under a bright Menorcan moon.
