Minorca is one of the Spanish Balearic Islands, off the coast in the Mediterranean Sea. The island is noted for its large number of huge stone monuments, which are thought to have been built by prehistoric humans who once inhabited it. The island offers great beaches, accommodation, dining and unique opportunities to explore. It not only offers the expected Roman and Moorish influences in its architecture, but also one can see the wide evidence of its days as a conquered British territory. Interesting buildings and cultural contrasts abound on Minorca, making it a great destination for travellers.
