About Barcelona from Menorca: the back story

By the ULTIMATE Menorca Editorial Team

Editor-in-Chief: Jai Michael

Barcelona is the closest mainland city. Baleària gives Barcelona–Ciutadella as 5h 15min, or about three and a half hours on its fast ferry (balearia.com); Trasmed sails from Maó (trasmed.com). Our sister guide covers the city in depth.

Getting there

Baleària: Barcelona–Ciutadella, 5h 15min or about 3½ hours on the fast ferry. Trasmed: Barcelona–Maó. Check the operators’ sites.

What to see

Gaudí, the Gothic Quarter, the markets and the restaurants: see the ULTIMATE Barcelona City Guide.

Our sister guide, the ULTIMATE Barcelona City Guide, covers the city in depth.

Our advice: take the car on the ferry and drive straight onto the island.

Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Barcelona from Menorca: the back story before you go.
