Far de Favàritx
About
When in Menorca, Far de Favàritx is the local business that marks the island's rugged north-eastern tip. The lighthouse stands along Carr. de Favàritx / Cf-1, 07700, on the Balearic Islands, where the road ends and the coast turns wild. It is a landmark that has guided ships along this stretch of Menorca for generations.
Far de Favàritx is known for its stark white tower set against dark slate and windswept rock, a combination that draws visitors from across the island. The surrounding landscape is unlike the sandy coves found elsewhere on Menorca, with jagged stone and low scrub replacing the beaches. A rating of 4.6 out of 5 from 3,471 reviews places it among the most reviewed sites on the island. Nearby places such as Mahón sit a short drive away, making the lighthouse an easy addition to a day exploring the north-east.
The lighthouse is listed at http://farsdebalears.com/, which covers the network of lighthouses across the Balearic Islands. Visitors travelling by car follow the signposted road from the main island route to reach the site.
Menorca's Mediterranean climate delivers hot, dry summers and mild winters, with June through September the busiest period for visitors. Menus across the Balearics lean on seafood pulled from surrounding waters, sobrasada sausage, ensaimada pastries and wines grown in island vineyards. Flights from across Europe and ferry routes from mainland Spain connect the Balearics to the rest of the continent. Spanish and Catalan are the main languages spoken across the islands, and English is understood in most visitor areas.
