When is the Best Time to Fly to Mahon?
Peak season when the weather is around 28 degrees is the best time to visit Mahon. The city is more lively from the end of June to the beginning of September which coincides with school holidays. Watch Menorca's local fiestas like the Festes de Gracia that take place almost every weekend in the summer months. Off-peak season during November through to the middle of April is the best time to find cheap accommodation and cheap flights to Mahon. There are less holidaymakers around and the weather is a lot cooler.
