The apartment is situated on the mouth of the entrance to Mahon harbour, Close to Es Castell. There is a small super market and two bar/restaurants close to the site. Es Castell was called George town, when the British had control of the island. In the main square you can still see old cannons, next to the museum, which is well worth a visit. The fortress of La Mola is clearly visible on the other side of the estuary, and again is well worth a visit.
Although you have a small cove (Cala Pedera) close by, you may wish to explore the beautiful beaches, on the south coast of the island, eg Son Bou or Cala Galdana. On the north side pf the island Es Grau, which is close by to a natural reserve area, has a very safe beach, and bathing area.
At night, if you ever get bored with walking to Cales Fonts, then why not go to Mahon harbour, and walk along the front, to see the spectacular boats, or take a drink or a meal in the many restaurants or bars.
Why not give La Gardenia a try?
