The countryside is breathtakingly beautiul and pristine. Ancient drystone walls border the narrow lanes and you can see mysterious pagan monuments known as Talayots and Tualas, uncannily similar to the monoliths of our own Stonehenge.
The Capital Mahon or Mao to the East of the island, with its eighteenth and nineteenth century architecture, offers a truly international lifestyle and inspired nightlife opportunities. The natural harbour is packed with yachts and cruisers, and Mahons boulevards, bars, shops, restaurants and casino offer grandeur to rival any upmarket Mediterranean destination.
