In Maó, Menorca's capital, the essentials are its natural harbour (one of the largest in the world), the church of Santa Maria with its nearly 3,000-pipe organ, the Mercat des Claustre, the Xoriguer gin distillery and the La Mola fortress at the harbour mouth. The historic centre can be walked in a morning.

Maó is Menorca's capital and overlooks one of the world's largest natural harbours. Its centre, with a British-Mediterranean air, is easy to explore on foot among squares, markets and churches.

This map gathers the essentials —what to see, where to eat and where to park— from the old town down to the port, which is the city's great protagonist.

Tip: park around s'Esplanada and walk down to the port via the Costa de ses Voltes. Don't miss a boat trip around the harbour to see La Mola and the Llatzeret from the water.
