Menorca Holiday Tip
Bus station = Estacio d'Autobuses
Mahon and Ciutadella ( Placa des Pins/Place de Menorca ) are hubs for their respective ends of the island. Outside of the main tourist season ( November to April ), the buses will run less frequently or not at all to some coastal resorts. As mentioned elsewhere, to preserve the landscape there are practically no coastal routes so most journeys will involve going inland to one of the towns along the island's major road (ME-1) where you will also be able to change for other destinations. Major changing points are Alaior,Es Mercadal and Ferreries- they are also good places to spend time in to.
IMPORTANT the correct local name for Mahon is (Mao) which will be shown on localtime timetables,bus displays and signposts. Drivers will understand Mahon and saying Mao ('Maow') will win you a smile!
Menorca Holiday Tip
Current bus (Autobuses) ,ferry (Barcos) and airline (Aviones) timetables are always posted daily in the local papers eg Ultima Hora , Menorca Info towards the back pages. You will nearly always find a copy in a Cafe Bar - make notes while enjoying a drink ( please don't take paper as its there for all to read. )

Can I get a bus from airport ?
The airport bus service is frequent (every 20 minutes in summer peak) ,but not ideal for those looking to reach any beach resort destinations. The bus will take you to Mahon main bus stations where you will connect to the island network. Journey time to Mahon station is 10 mins. with stops.
First bus leaves the airport at 05.55 running until 22:30. From Mahon bus station they begin at 05:45 until 00:15.
