Cala En Bosc

This resort (also known as Cala'n Bosc) is probably one of the most fashionable places on the island and it's only 9km south of Ciutadella. The marina, with it's trendy bars and restaurants, dominate this area making it ideal if you're looking for lively entertainment in the evenings.

Close by, the resort of Son Xoriguer has two large beaches offering everything from pedaloes to scuba-diving courses. The mini-train runs to and from Son Xoriguer during the day.

The main shopping area is around the north end of the marina; here you will find a good range of shops to browse through and pick up a few souvenirs along the way. If you don't have a hire car, there is a regular bus service to Ciutadella each day allowing you to explore further afield.

Cala Blanca (5.6 km) - show on map

Worthy of note only for the fact that, as a beach, it has been completely dwarfed by the development around it! Cala Blanca is probably not a beach to visit by itself, the attraction is the development of restaurants and holiday facilities around it.

Museu Municipal de Ciutadella (8.5 km) - show on map

Originally built as a fortress, the Bastio de Sa Font was renovated as a museum in the mid 1990's. Thanks to many archaeological excavations, the museum can tell the history of the island from Pre-Talaiotic, through to Muslim times. Collections include Iron Age skulls, Roman coins and jewellery.

Trotting races (9.5 km) - show on map

A popular sport in the Balearics for over 200 years, trotting races are held at weekends both in Mahon and Ciutadella. The jockey must prevent the horse from breaking into a gallop, hence the name "trotting". Great to watch but even better if you place the winning bet!

Naveta des Tudons (9.7 km) - show on map

The oldest roofed building in Spain and an ancient burial site (naveta meaning burial chamber) that yielded over 100 corpses during excavations in the 1950s. Admission is free.
