About Renting a Car at Fornells

Fornells is a charming fishing village by a deep lagoon on Menorca's north coast, world-famous for its lobster soup caldereta de llagosta. Mahón is 35 km south (40 min) and Ciutadella 35 km southwest. One rental company is available locally – perfect for exploring the wild north coast.

The lagoon is popular for windsurfing and kayaking, and equipment is rented at the harbor. The village has several well-regarded fish restaurants along the waterfront. The Cap de Cavalleria nature reserve with its lighthouse and northernmost point is reached in 15 km (20 min).

Drive to Cap de Cavalleria (15 km) early in the morning for spectacular views and fewer visitors. Book a restaurant in advance if you want to eat caldereta – the most popular places are booked weeks ahead during the summer. The coastal road toward Arenal d'en Castell (15 km east) offers fantastic views.

What is Fornells known for? Fornells is most known for its lobster soup caldereta de llagosta and its beautiful lagoon, which is popular for water sports. How can I get to Fornells without a car?

Summer buses run between Mahón, but the schedule is limited. A rental car clearly gives the most freedom to explore the north coast. Can I drive around all of Menorca in a day from Fornells?

It's possible but rushed – Menorca is approximately 50 km long. Plan for 2 days instead to enjoy both the south and north coasts.

We compare prices from all major providers at Fornells so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
