How busy is Menorca?

Airport passenger and aircraft history

Aena monthly traffic statistics for Menorca airport (MAH / LEMH). Passengers count arrivals plus departures, including residents; operations count landings plus takeoffs. These are movements, not unique visitors or people currently on the island. Unpublished months are absent. Snapshots are refreshed manually, not on every visit.

Coverage: 2017-01 through 2026-09. Aena monthly reports · Download airport JSON with per-month source links.

Population present

OBSAM Pressió Humana Diària (PHD) estimates all people present, including residents, visitors and seasonal workers. It is not a live census or a tourist count. Cruise day visitors and private-boat visitors are excluded. Monthly means and daily minima/maxima are calculated from the daily worksheet; published monthly-summary revisions are retained separately. Values from 2024 onward are provisional. Missing dates are unknown.

Published daily coverage: 2017-01-01 through 2026-06-30. Source retrieved 2026-10-27; provisional from 2024. OBSAM workbook · Source methodology · Download daily and monthly population JSON. Tables round to whole people.

Today’s seasonal estimate

The interactive Today panel uses a published daily PHD estimate when available. Otherwise, its seasonal model takes the median of the same seven-day seasonal increases above each year’s January–February baseline in the three latest complete years from 2022 onward preceding the target year, then adds the latest available winter baseline. Its range is the minimum/maximum of those historical patterns, not a confidence interval. Estimates round to the nearest thousand and stop more than 550 days after the last published day. It uses no real-time passenger or phone feed. The tables and population download contain published historical estimates. Open the interactive panels for today’s seasonal estimate.

Flight arrivals and origin shares

Aena scheduled arrivals at MAH: up to six saved past days, today and six future days. Past days are saved schedules, not confirmed landings; today merges saved flights with the rolling board. Changes after a snapshot can be missed. Known cancellations and diversions at collection time are excluded. Country and airport shares count each flight equally; they do not describe passenger shares, residence or nationality. The daily collector runs at 03:00 UTC; the edge summary cache is 15 minutes when history is enabled.

Missing days remain unknown. Dates follow Menorca’s local calendar.

Historical beach crowds and popularity

Count years: 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2025. Seasonal profiles use 2021, 2022, 2023, 2025. Absent years have no observations in this snapshot.

The Biosphere Reserve Agency surveys beach users in summer. The table shows each beach’s peak August count in the latest survey year, alongside a separate derived popularity index. Missing surveys are unknown. Historical counts do not establish today’s occupancy.

Summer popularity combines 60% historical footfall and 40% weighted travel-guide coverage. Footfall uses the mean peak August count of up to three latest counted years, or an explicitly labelled estimate for uncounted beaches. This 0–100 index differs from the modelled 0–10 beach comfort score. The download includes each survey year, seasonal and hourly profiles, source reports and field definitions.
