How to get to Fornells
// From the airport
To reach Fornells from Menorca’s only airport, you have three options:
1. Using public transport. From the airport take line 10 to Máhon bus station. It leaves every 30 minutes and costs €2.75 per person, paid to the driver. From the main bus station, pick up line 41. It leaves several times during the day and takes about 60 minutes to reach Fornells.
2. Taking a taxi. There are plenty of taxis outside the airport that will take you to Fornells. The journey is around 30 minutes and will cost between €20 – €24.
3. Rent a car and drive yourself. We recommend looking + booking via Rentalcars.com as it has the best selection of local and international companies on the island, and often has discounts and deals.
We’ve written much more in this guide about Menorca car rental, so if it’s something you are considering doing, we highly recommend giving it a read first.
We’d also recommend renting a car if you plan on visiting different parts of the island.
// By bus from elsewhere on the island
There are two bus lines that run in and out of Fornells:
Line 41 | Es Mercadal – Fornells – Tirant- Son Parc – Arenal d’en Castell – Maó
Line 45 | Fornells – Es Mercadal – Fornells
From Es Mercadal there are several other bus routes you can pick up to take you to other areas in Menorca.
// By car from elsewhere on the island
Although located in the north east of the island, it is still an easy drive to Fornells from most major tourist hubs, and just 10 minutes from Es Mercadal.
Paid and unpaid parking is available on various streets throughout Fornells, however we’d recommend that day trippers park up in one of two official carparks.
-
The smallest of the two carparks is located by the harbour, and is a good option if you are arriving early in the morning. You can find it here on Google Maps.
-
Alternatively, there is a much large car park (seriously, it’s huge!) just behind Fornell’s thoroughfare. You can find it here on Google Maps.
As is common across the island, both of these carparks are free of charge.
If you are staying in Fornells, we’d advise checking if your accommodation comes with parking.
