We all like to travel and get in touch with new cultures, new lifestyles and, in this way, increase our vital experience. What we neglect on each trip is the environment. On the island of Menorca, if it weren't for the environment, nothing would be the same. Therefore, it is important to keep in mind the fact that a trip can remain spectacular even if we are aware of the way we do it.

Menorca - an ecological trip

Here you will find 6 useful tips to take care of the island while you are discovering it and, even more so, if you want it to become your new summer residence or, perhaps, your new home.

Turn off the tap

Water is a very scarce natural resource in Menorca. In fact, most of the water for human consumption must be bottled and brought from the continent. That's why you should not use more water than necessary when you shower, wash your hands or face. Among all, the goal is to try to consume what is necessary.

Mud baths

Have you heard the urban legend that mud on beaches like Cavallería works miracles if you cover yourself with it? The large number of people who have taken mud baths in recent years has caused premature erosion of the land that affects the beach ecosystem. Imagine you return to Menorca in 20 years and everyone else has done the same as you did. It is likely that the magical beach you remember will be completely different. And not necessarily for the better.

Piles of stones

The tendency to upload a photo to social networks with this type of construction has caused an avalanche of spontaneous artists. However, moving the stones from their proper place causes soil erosion and destroys the mini ecosystems. How? Because many native plants and small animals are left without any place to grow or hide. Virtue is in the details.

Boat trips

Are you going to take a boat trip? Renting a small boat is one of the best ways to discover the coast of Menorca. However, remember that you cannot dock in the meadows of Posidonia.
