Menorca in October
Around 19.5 °C by day, sea 23.1 °C. Warm enough to swim. Quieter than the peak: 3 of 5.
October on Menorca is 19.5 °C by day and 23.1 °C in the sea. You can still swim, and load has already dropped from the summer 5 to 3 out of 5.
October on Menorca is a short window in which the island is both warm and empty. After it comes a long winter: load is 1 out of 5 from December to February, and the winter scores run from 1 to 3. What to look at is the difference between the two towns. Maó has a hospital 8 minutes away and an airport 8, with a square metre at €2,811 on the ministry's appraisal. Ciutadella, at the other end, has the hospital 35 minutes off and the airport 45, and costs €3,555 — more money for worse access. The island is small, and those forty minutes decide.
