Menorca is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, forming part of the Balearic Islands region of Spain. It is classified administratively as both an island and a county of the Balearic Islands. The terrain rises from its coastline to its highest point at El Toro, which stands as the highest elevation on the island.
The island is a dear place to buy property compared to the Spanish average. Most of the housing stock concentrates in the western municipality of Ciutadella, followed by the eastern port town of Maó. Together, these two municipalities hold the majority of the island's homes. Prices vary across the smaller municipalities, with Sant Lluís and the small inland community of Es Migjorn Gran commanding the highest prices on the island, while Ferreries and Es Castell offer the most affordable properties.
