Menorca is not your average Spanish island: its beautifully unspoiled terrain is a Unesco site, ensuring it will never be overrun by beery tourists and tacky nightclubs. Isabel Conway samples its rugged charms
TOPSHOT - A horse rears in the crowd during the traditional San Juan (Saint John) festival in the town of Ciutadella, on the Balearic Island of Menorca, on the eve of Saint John's day on June 23, 2017. During the island's San Juan festival, held each year on June 23 and 24, Minorcan race horses gallop and prance on their hind legs through the streets of Ciutadella to honor of the town's patron saint. As the "caixers" (horse riders) ride together in a parade, spectators attempt to pat the horses' chests to get good luck. / AFP PHOTO / JAIME REINA (Photo credit should read JAIME REINA/AFP/Getty Images)
