Mahon is the capital of Menorca, North Island of the Balearic Islands. It is an iconic place that was under British rule throughout the Eighteenth Century, therefore, its colonial heritage is noticeable, and that gives the city a particular cosmopolitan atmosphere.
This city is full of nooks to discover, that with a simple walk, transport the visitor to another era.
The combination of British architecture, together with its natural harbor, and the historical importance of this enclave, makes Mahón a visit difficult to forget.
To visit this town, we recommend using our Mahon Car Rental service, since Hiper Rent a Car offers the most comfortable and quickest way to get around Mahon and its surroundings, which we also recommend to visit.

The office of Hiper Rent a Car is located 3 kilometers from Menorca Airport , and although it can be reached in many ways, we recommend using our minibus service, completely free for Hiper Rent a Car clients.
The Airport-Office-Airport shuttle service at the door of the office, or at the corresponding terminal.

Mahón is a place famous for its gastronomy, given that Menorcan cuisine has very characteristic dishes.
The vast majority of the food in Mahon comes from the sea, given the great diversity of species found in its waters, thanks to Menorca being declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1993.
For this reason, we recommend trying the wide range of fish and seafood, highlighting dishes such as Caldereta de Langosta, Raya al Horno, or the well-known Queso Mahonés, a cheese exclusive to this area, with a flavour that can only be achieved in Mahón.
For those with a sweet tooth, we recommend sweets such as Pastissets or Carquinyols.

As already mentioned, Mahón is a place with many places to discover, and a great offer of activities.
It is always recommended to take a stroll along the port, with the possibility of delighting in one of the many bars and restaurants that surround it.
There is also the possibility of seeing a play at the Mahón Main Theater, or learning about the island’s history at the Menorca Museum.
A highly recommended place to visit is the La Mola Fortress, a 19th-century fortification commissioned by Isabel II of Spain, and which, although no longer in use, continues to welcome anyone who decides to enter the port by boat.
