Mahon (Maõ Mahón) is the capital city of Menorca. Despite being the capital, the city shares the island’s enviable laid-back ambiance. Located on the scenic Eastern coast, Mahon boasts one of the largest natural harbours in the world, which makes it a popular location to start your adventure on the waters of Menorca. Make sure to enjoy the chic cafés that line the streets before boarding your private yacht. Mahon comes alive for the first week of September for the Nuestra Sēnora de Gracia Festival, so ensure to include this celebration in your itinerary if you want to experience the best party Menorca has to offer.
A bar we recommend is El Rais, one of the best of the area. Included, a cosy drinks terrace in an elevated position offering splendid views over the port. However, if El Rais is full, try Mestre D’Aixa right on the marina with excellent tapas and a nautical décor.
Menorca Offers a Taste of Paradise
Just North of Mahon is the Albufera des Grau Natural Park. This area boasts a unique medley of dramatic landscapes, rare wildlife and archaeological sites. So for nature lovers, this idyllic reserve is a must-see on your Menorca yacht charter itinerary. This park includes a diverse range of habitats, highlights include a dramatic cliff landscape and small island chain of 5 uninhabited islets.
To the West of the island lies the historical town of Ciutadella de Menorca. Tucked away past the countless hidden bays, long sandy beaches and tantalizing diving/snorkeling locations. A delightfully picturesque town, Ciutadella offers cobbled streets, atmospheric churches and exquisite restaurants. The local festival occurs on the 23-24th June each year. Scattered throughout the region there are also secluded beaches, reserved to those embarking on a Menorca yacht charter. Highlights include the glorious Son Saura and Es Talaier.
