Ce qui vous attend

Quelle meilleure façon de passer quelques heures que de découvrir et de savourer les délices de Mahon, la capitale historique de Minorque ? Au cours de cette excursion matinale, vous faites une balade en bateau sur le port, vous avez du temps libre pour explorer la vieille ville le jour du marché et visitez une distillerie historique. Nicola, l'un de nos guides locaux experts, explique : "Si vous vous arrêtez pour observer, vous trouverez l'influence britannique dans de nombreux bâtiments anciens, comme les fenêtres à guillotine, les portes à panneaux, les lunettes et bien d'autres. La peinture rouge rubis de ces maisons est une touche typiquement minorquine."

La première chose à faire est une promenade en bateau à vision sous-marine dans le port de Mahon, le deuxième plus grand du monde. Vous glisserez entre les îlots fortifiés et pourrez voir les villas opulentes bordant le front de mer de part et d'autre. Certaines datent du 18ᵉ siècle, lorsque Minorque était une colonie britannique. Une visite guidée vous attend ensuite, à l'ancienne distillerie de gin Xoriguer. C'est là que la boisson préférée de Minorque est fabriquée, selon la recette de 1736, un autre symbole de l'héritage britannique de l'île."

Du temps libre vous permet de vous promener dans Mahon à votre façon, pour voir ses maisons géorgiennes, ses églises baroques, ses places bordées de palmiers et ses ruelles pavées. Vous pouvez aussi vous rendre au marché de la Plaza del Carme, où les vendeurs proposent toutes sortes de produits, de la charcuterie jusqu'aux fruits frais, tout cela sous les cloîtres d'un couvent du 17ᵉ siècle. Le fromage local à du succès dans toute l'Espagne.

Mahon Harbour, Binibeca & Xoroi Cave Tour

You'll discover Menorca by land and sea, and inside out, on this full day tour. Activities include a Mahon harbour boat trip and visits to the whitewashed Binibeca and Xoroi Cave. Nicola, one of our expert local guides, says "legend has it that the Xoroi cave was once the refuge of a man named Xoroi, who was shipwrecked during a storm and found shelter in the cave. The lore continues with tales of him falling in love with a local girl, leading to a romantic yet tragic story that adds an air of mystique to this stunning location."The fun kicks off with a boat trip around Mahon harbour. At five kilometres long, it's one of the world's largest natural harbours. It's fringed by historic buildings, fortifications and dotted with islands. Back on dry land, there's a tour of Mahon town followed by some free time. Nicola adds "reminders of the century-long British rule are still visible to this day – you can see sash and bow windows, door latches and handles just as you would in the UK." Then, discover the sugar-cube village of Binibeca and its whitewashed homes.Just a little further east along the coast, you'll find the Cova d'en Xoroi, a bar uniquely set within a cave on a cliff face. Here, you can sip on a refreshing drink while soaking in the breathtaking sea views from what is undoubtedly Menorca's coolest bar.

Mahon Harbour Boat Tour with Mahon Market and Gin Distillery

What better way to spend a few hours than discovering and savouring the delights of Mahon, Menorca's history-steeped capital? On this morning tour, you'll enjoy a harbour boat trip, have free time to explore the old town on market day and visit a historic distillery. Nicola, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘If you scratch beneath the surface, you'll find the British influence in many older buildings such as sash windows, panelled doors, lunettes and more. A uniquely Menorquin touch is the ruby-red paint on these houses.'First up is a glass-bottom boat trip in Mahon harbour – the second largest in the world. Glide between fortified islets and admire the opulent villas lining the waterfront on either side. Some date from the 18th century, when Menorca was a British colony. Next, it's on to the old Xoriguer gin distillery. Menorca's favourite tipple has been made here, using the same recipe, since 1736 – yet another symbol of the island's British heritage.There's also free time to wander around Mahon under your own steam, admiring its Georgian town houses, baroque churches, palm-lined squares and narrow, cobbled streets. Head to the centrally located Plaza del Carme, where there's a market of vendors hawking everything from cured meats to fresh fruit under the cloisters of a 17th-century convent. The local square-shaped cheese is highly regarded throughout Spain.

You'll conclude the tour with some free time to discover more under your own steam or shop for souvenirs.We kick off with a guided tour. There's palm-shaded Plaça d'es Born, considered one of Spain's most beautiful squares. Plus, there are the lavish palaces tucked down the surrounding alleys. You'll visit one of these aristocratic mansions, the 17th-century Casa Olivar, which is stacked with antiques and tapestries, and boasts lavish ceiling frescoes. "The old town is a maze of narrow, winding streets fringed by honey-coloured buildings bathed in sunlight, while the tiny fishing port is pretty as a picture," says Helen.You'll then have a couple of hours to wander around at your own pace. Have a poke around a huge variety of shops in the centre, including places to grab souvenirs, trinkets, clothes and more. It's also market day, offering even more local produce, textiles and leather goods – a discount card is offered for purchases here. Don't miss out on picking out some abarcas for yourself – you'll see most of the locals donning these typical Menorquin sandals. Or, use your time to visit a museum or two, head to one of the atmospheric harbour cafés or check out the baroque cathedral.
