Menorca Cruise Best Bets

Iglesia de Santa Maria. There's a concert given here on the church's magnificent 3,006-pipe organ every Saturday at 7:30 pm, and at 11 am and 7 pm on Sunday.

Saturday Market. Browse for local products, including the famous local cheese, at the stalls in the cloisters of the former convent of the Church of La Verge del Carme.

Ciutadella. Take the 45-km (28-mile) trip to Menorca's medieval capital, at the west end of the island, with stops en route at Alaior and Ferreries to browse for shoes and leather goods.

Cala d'En Porter. This beach resort on the south coast, a 20-minute drive from Mahón, is famous for the Cova d'en Xoroi. By day a chill-out spot, by night a dance club, it's built into a series of caves in a dizzying seaside cliff.

S'Albufera. The island's largest wetlands nature reserve and bird sanctuary is a mere 20-minute drive from town.
