What better way to sample the delights of theBalearicsthan with a break in Menorca's city of Mahon? As both a municipality and the capital city of the island, Mahon holidays, or Maó as it is known in Menorquin, offers a range of activities and amenities to entertain the huge number of visitors it receives from all over the world. Located on the east coast of the island, the town is lively and popular but has retained all the beauty and tradition of a typical Menorcan resort, with plenty of cultural events, a thriving port, and fantastic restaurants. Mahon is a fascinating mixture of squares, narrow streets and Georgian architecture.

Relaxation

Apart from the beach, which will serve for a great day of relaxation, the port is the place to be seen on Mahon holidays. Serene by day and bustling by night, it offers a fantastic range of bars and restaurants serving traditional food and drinks alongside a wonderful setting, perfect for daydreaming about owning one of the many beautiful yachts on view!

You'll also want to photograph the many historical buildings; the oldest, Arch De San Roque, features the only remains of a city wall that surrounded the town long ago. Also well worth a visit of is the Church of Santa Maria, which was built in 1748. To relax after a great day's sightseeing, why not head to the Xoriguer Gin Distillery, which will allow you to sample the local gins on offer?

If the city lifestyle is too much for you then why not make the short journey from Mahon to nearby Binibeca and enjoy a day of total rest and relaxation on one of the long sandy beaches?

It's not often that people will think of going on holidays to Mahon outside of the peak summer months, but if you want to beat the crowds and enjoy slightly cooler temperatures then visiting in September or October is a great idea. With temperatures averaging 21°; Celsius you'll still enjoy warm weather but without excessive heat. There is a slight chance of rainfall, while evening temperatures, at around 15°; Celsius, are very pleasant indeed. The same goes for May and June, when temperatures are cooler (but still gorgeous), and the resort is much less crowded.

If a tan is what you want though, July and August holidays in Mahon are made for you! With temperatures peaking at an average of 30°; Celsius, that hot Mediterranean summer will definitely have you reaching for the sun cream! You'll also be set for a great evening out as temperatures are about 24°; Celsius; this, combined with the lack of rainfall during summer months will ensure a warm and comfortable night out.
