Santa Tomas is just 25km from the airport, lying on the southern coast of Menorca. You will be situated under an hour from the Island’s capital Mahon, ideal for a day trip to catch a recital at the Santa Maria Cathedral followed by a long leisurely lunch at one of the harbour-side restaurants.
Santo Tomas itself is a quiet self-contained holiday resort, set against a pine covered hillside backdrop and surrounded by countryside, only moments from one of Menorca’s most stunning stretches of coastline and the best beaches on the Island.
The town comprises of one main street, and a promenade, peppered with small shopping areas where you’ll find everything you need, from supermarkets, cafes and souvenir shops to even a charming bakery. Santo Tomas offers relaxing low-key nights, whether enjoying the entertainment at the various hotels or in the small selection of bars and restaurants in the town. But if you want something a little livelier, neighbouring Son Bou is a 25 minute taxi ride away.
The 3km of pristine golden sand beaches in the area are a major draw. The crystal clear waters of this life guarded stretch of coast are perfect for whiling away hot sunny Menorcan afternoons. There are plenty of water sports on offer too; so all the family will be entertained. There are also less frequented virgin beaches a little further west for more secluded bathing. And for the more active amongst you, take advantage of the beautiful coastal walks on offer in and around Santo Tomas. There is an area known as Es Migjorn offering picturesque, hilly countryside, ideal for walking or off track cycling.
For a peaceful holiday experience, where relaxation and stunning scenery is key, Santo Tomas offers everything you could wish for.
