Camping Port Mahon

Mahón is Minorca’s principal town, in which the inhabitants have left their mark through the ages.
Located in a wonderful area, Mahon has always drawn people, including the Romans, Arabs, English and Spanish, and not forgetting pirates! All of these have left their marks in the town.

Holidays in camping Mahon 

The capital of the island, walking through the old town, you can relive those past times and even discover the importance of the sea in Mahón's identity. Its spectacular natural harbor, over 5 km long, is the second largest in the world (only behind Sydney's harbor).
As it is built next to a harbor, it has always been closely tied to the Mediterranean. Make the most of your stay to explore the island's coast aboard one of the many tourist boats that offer this type of trip around Menorca.

 

In the old town, you can walk through cobbled streets and grand houses, passing by symbolic places such as the Town Hall with its original Richard Kane clock on the façade, the Church of Santa María, or the always lively Plaza del Príncipe.
If you need a break, you can always head to the lively Mercat del Peix, set up as a gastronomic center with great taste and usually packed during peak hours.
On the outskirts of Mahón, you can also visit several interesting sites, such as the Fortress of La Mola or the Talayotic villages of Cornia Nou or Trepucó, two of the most important on Menorca, as well as its lighthouse, included in an interesting route through the lighthouses of Menorca.

Mahon also owes its reputation to its beaches, including Es Grau and Cala Mesquida. These names are all synonymous with sunshine, fine sand and clear water. Perfect for kids, the beach of Es Grau is very shallow close to shore, so toddlers will be able to enjoy the Mediterranean in total safety. With your feet in the sand, the blue sky up above and bathed in sunshine, you'll love your holiday here!

Mahon's food will be a major part of your discovery of the town, with soubressade (red spicy sausage), cold meats, pastries, Mahon-Minorca cheese and the island's red wine featuring strongly in the dishes you'll enjoy.
