THIS IS MENORCA | A Mediterranean Island Paradise
Being a local it's pretty cool to see a tourist's view of the island
Same
Love is beautiful little island! Thanks for taking us along 😁
E sem duvida uma ilha maravilhosa Ferias emMinorca, onde estive entre 29 de Maio e 5 de Junho sao inesqueciveis.Boas praias.Boa comida .Simpatia das pessoas.
Long live Europe the best continent, I love Europe, I love UK, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Portugal , Greece , Austria, Scandinavian countries as well
You did not mentionend only rich and/or warm countries of Europe. You did not mention Eastern Europe. Don’t you like poor and cold countries?
@@VonRix Scandinavian countries are very cold in winter months and why would anyone like poor countries ?
@@dirkdiggler6230 That's just weak.
I’m lucky to have lived there for 3 summers . Love the island
The water must have been so refreshing after hiking so long to find that perfect spot. With fewer people. Ahhhh!
"perfect spot"???? Fewer people and crystal clean water but too rocky and sea plants are everywhere in the bottom. Not for me...
Very exciting to see the new Island.. I love off the beaten path places.. Great video Gabe.. I miss Europe
Wonderful landscapes and scenery! Thanks for taking us along!
This is where my family comes from 🥰
Great vid and music. What a beautiful country!
Beautiful..
Looks so chill compared to Mallorca. Thanks for taking us on your eternal journeys. Travel safe amigo.
Mallorca is mostly chill, not quite as much as Menorca but the whole island isn't Magaluf at all
@@FirstOnRaceDayCapri2904 yes, its a big beautiful island.however, I did have a 77 ford truck that did a pretty good job of kicking the bucket! Peace.
In Menorca the locals speak Menorquian....so Spanish or Menorquian is the usuallangyage spoken.
Menorca is one of the chillest places in Spain, probably in the world, in this island nothing ever hapends
It depends where you are, like son bou (it's a beach) is completely crowded especially in summer. According to my mother and my grandparents who are from Menorca, it didn't use to be like that like a decade or so ago, but the island is becoming more and more touristy
That sky! You almost see the black of space
Love the music in this Vid, also nice shot of you diving into the clear waters.
But this is Spanish and South American music..nothing in common with Balearic islands.
I just looove these mini road trips of yours. Thanks for all the interesting historical facts about Menorca and the catalan language. Enjoy the place, can't wait to know what your next destination will be 😄 !
my favorite shots are the marina but everything is amazing
What a beautiful island....what a beautiful video!
Such a wonderful place to visit, especially for families.
It is i was there last october and its absolutely chill and beautiful!
YES ! I told you so ! Menorca is so much more beautiful then Mallorca ! I wish you much fun there ! Enjoy !!!
Yeah and I like the vibe better, mellower and the cities of Ciutedella and Mao are both amazing. Way nicer than Palma or Alcudia.
I guess I've visited over 25 times. Just a chilled out island which is my version of heaven.
Thanks.
Continuing with the island theme....you should visit Corsica, Sicily, and Malta next
Ciao... Gabriel... Amazing... Video... Grazie mille... 👍👍👍👍Take care... 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I miss menorca
Super film. I will spend my vacation there in a few weeks... 😄
Amazinq video !!!!
*Greetings Gabriel*
Hi! Just wanted to point out that you got a bit confused with the whole Catalonia things. It is confusing even for us Spaniards...However, just know that Catalonia, Comunidad Valenciana and Balearic Islands are different regions. They all share similarities in their local language; Valencian language derives from Catalan, and so does the balearic dialects, but they don’t belong to the region of Catalonia.
Adding this paradise into my bucket list! Thank you for this amazingly beautiful very informative video Gabriel!
Nice Gabe. People really love your videos so many nice comments lol. And great job the subscribers keep going up almost 100k more it must only have been a few months. Great stuff man did you ever think you’d be this famous??
Gabriel Wow! It's been years since i visited Mallorca, your videos makes me wanna go back and see more of the cultural and historical parts of the country. Gabriel you and your channel is the best thing since sliced bread… be safe and take care of yourself always ♥️
You know hes not in mallorca right ?
It’s Menorca not Mallorca there is a difference
Incredible Menorca!
I ENJOY YOUR TRAVEL CLIPS. I ALWAYS WISH YOU IN GOOD HEALTH. THANKS. TAKE CARE YOURSELF. GREETING FROM CALI USA.
Love such isolated places, so peaceful!
The mountain, and the views it brings, remind me a lot of Mount Hooiberg in Aruba. Beautiful scenery!
amazing man, loved that beach at the end with the red/orange looking landscapes.. Actually looks very similar in many ways to here in the Algarve since all the buildings are also white and the dry rocky landscapes almost look identical.. I imagine the ocean is warmer there though, here is ice cold lol and it seems there is more sandy beaches here
This Island is amazingly beautiful! The shot of you diving was great.. You are blessed to be able to do this. Take care and God Bless you!💫😃💫
So many beautiful little inlets to swim!
Gabriel another great vlog
Would love to visit either island, keep on keeping it classy.
Having visited Menorca for several years, we love it so much we are going to buy a place there next year!
Oooh excellent ... i work with Bonninsanso Inmobilaria ..so i can help😁
"Casa de el Toro" is Spanish. But it's true, through this whole videos I can tell that most of the people are talking in Catalan. Lovely land of my grandparents ancestors. Most go see some day!!!! Thank you for showing us this beautiful part of Spain😘♥️
Actually it says "Casal de el Toro" (casal, not casa). So I think it's in Catalan, but it's very similar to Spanish. On Wikipedia it says: "El Toro in Catalan, sometimes known by its Spanish name of Monte Toro, is the tallest hill of the island of Menorca."
@@GabrielTravelerVideos You're right!!! That "L" in the tile crack got me!!! Thanks for the clarification!!! And I've never heard of the story about that Virgin's apparition!!! So interesting!!! Will check it out!! Thanks!!!😊
@@huacamaya119 Si, no problema. :)
This is what i call ' Freedom'
ya got food , sights and a place to rest the feet !
Corsica must be your next destination 😉😉😉😉👍👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂🙂
hey Gabe Ilive in a world full of self doubt and loneliness . I so appreciate travelling with you. You are a dude. Just wanted to say thank You. All your hard work makes a huge difference to people you may never meet. But if you are ever in Ireland. Be my guest
Bella. Indimenticabile se bellissima una bella esperienza una bella vacanza ci tornerooo ciao menorcaaa maria
Menorca is beautiful!
Thank you Gabriel! 😊❤ beautiful! Water is so inviting! Stay safe! 😊🙏
Wonderful island
2020 delayed my bucketlist. Hope to be there in 2022
Glad you enjoyed it, we have been going since 2011 and love the island
Best place in the world.
14:55 u can also identify the trail thanks to little red and white symbols u randomly see across the island
Another great video. I don't evny the heat, tho. The temperatures there have been tipping into the 40's
never been to menorca looks nice and peaceful
Hi Gabriel, Interesting History of that region of Spain, there are many expats Brits, living in Costa del Sol, A lot of influence wanting to avoid that cold overcast climate. Up north, you have the Basque region a combination of French and Spanish that want to break free of Spanish rule.
Looks like a great place for a inflatable mattress and tent with those high prices for rooms...
Just for future references Gabriel. Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza, Formentera and Cabrera form the Autonomous Community of the Balearic Islands. It has it's own independent goverment, as well as the Valencian Community and Catalonia. The three of them are politically independent but they share both culturally and historically a lot of traditions and of course, the language, which is called different in some areas: valencian, mallorquin, even menorquin...all of them are dialects of the catalan language, although there is a bit of controversy in this topic because there are those think that for example valencian is a language that has it's own roots and has nothing to do with catalan. I particularly think is a dialect, even though I live in a town in Alicante where valencian is spoken, but we don't say that we speak catalan, we say we speak valencian, but some people consider that a mistake. I can't see why but I think they're saying that because they have a specific political ideology, nationalist ideology and that's just shitty.
Living the dream
I'm so happy you enjoyed my island! Come back again and I can show you some cool insight!
do you live in menorca?
I love your videos. They make me feel like I explore with my own eyes. Thank you
Sweet.
The wonderful nature in those islands looks like Turkey and Greece.
You’ve got the best life
So very close to our hearts, as we try to go twice a year. You mention the language the 3 guys in Fornells are speaking, I know them as they run a great boat tour called 'Pachira Tours'. Was funny to see them, it made me feel I was there again, especially at the moment with this pandemic madness going on! So hope we get to go in 2021. Thanks for this :-)
Very cool.
that British ...defensive fort is known as a 'Martello tower'....it's actually one of the earliest examples I've seen...as most were built around the time of the Napoleon wars....
Martello's tower as at the beginning of Ulysses?
Menorca esta en mi corazon
Buenos Dias Bro✌
I love your videos. Thanks for Sharing all your awesome adventures with us

I like your recent destinations; Andorra, Malta, Menorca. Interesting locations that don't seem to get a lot of publicity.
Did you get to see the "taules" in Menorca? Those are Stonehenge-esque stone monuments found on the Balearic island of Menorca
I was there bringing the year so fine😍

Gabriel must be happy he has some swim goggles :)
Looks nice.
Gabriel Traveller just booked his accommodation in San Marino his next destination.

Menorca , my favourite Spanish island 😎🌴 I think 💭🤔 you might be going North Africa way !!! Algeria 🇩🇿 / Tunisia 🇹🇳 / Libya 🇱🇾 and then maybe, make your way to Greece 🇬🇷 hmmmm .... safe travels dude ✌🏼
Cool hanging out with you...Thank you for epic ontent..

Again, superb. It's just like being with you. So many vloggers have got so arty farty, thinking the more cimanographic they are, the better it is, no. Thanks for keeping it real.
Gabriel, do you have any info on those ruins we see around 17.40? If it was a house the owner had a pretty nice view!
No there wasn't any info about that site, that I found anyway. But in the next video I'll be showing more ancient ruins and talking about them.
