Mahon Holidays

A historic holiday hotspot

The British-style Georgian houses found on this island provide a unique backdrop to the relaxed Spanish atmosphere you'll find on your Mahon holidays. The capital of Menorca, the smallest and possibly most laidback of the Balearic Islands, it’s a popular destination for culture lovers and beach fans alike. Cafés spill out onto the city's pavements, and the easygoing spirit makes holidays to Mahon perfect for taking in the sights and sampling the local food and drink.

Eclectic architecture reflects various times of occupation, which in recent centuries included the British and French and, before that, the Romans and Moors. History buffs will love wandering the streets and spotting the blend of influences, from the renaissance façade of the city hall to the Art Nouveau influences seen in many large townhouses. Holidays to Mahon are all about soaking up the cultural flavour, enjoying the relaxed holiday vibes and discovering the beautiful coastline.
