11 Things to Do in Menorca at Night

Menorcan nights are just as intense as in neighboring Mallorca and Ibiza. The difference is that, if you want a quiet activity plan, you can get it, and if you want a party plan, it is also within your reach.

Bars, cafes and open-air concert venues are all over the island and make the Menorcan night an experience for lovers of nightlife and nightlife. From Mahon to Ciutadella, and even in some villages like Binibeca or Fornells, you can get places to party with friends or a partner.

Undoubtedly, the ideal night plan is to book a stargazing tour in Menorca, since, due to the low light pollution in certain places of the island, you can delight yourself with the milky way and the constellations with an amazing clarity.

This activity, which lasts approximately 2 hours, takes place in Algaiarens Beach, in La Vall, which has the Starlight certification, which accredits the optimal conditions for stargazing. Located in the northeastern part of the Balearic archipelago, it is an idyllic and paradisiacal place for its coves of crystal clear water, its different types of sand and its landscapes.

In addition, to make the experience much more profitable, it is planned for small groups of no more than 15 people, so it is more comfortable when using the astronomical binoculars and telescopes.

Cova d'en Xoroi is one of the most representative places of Menorca. Its name comes from a pirate named Xoroi who was shipwrecked and hid in a cave with a young girl from the village. One winter by the footprints in the snow, the inhabitants found the shipwrecked man along with the missing girl and three children. The villagers sentenced him, but Xoroi threw himself and one of his sons into the sea. The young wife was devastated by the death of her love and child, so she returned to the village with her other two children. From there, the name Cova d'en Xoroi originated.

But far from the legend, if you book an excursion to the Cueva de Xoroi you will enjoy a relaxed as well as beautiful atmosphere. In addition, you will be able to see an amazing sunset, with nothing to envy to other iconic places of the island. This beautiful place is located in Cala en Porter in the south.

It also has several terraces and viewpoints that allow you to appreciate the entire landscape facing the Mediterranean. A magical place impossible to overlook in the tour of the Menorcan night. If you are amazed, keep in mind that you can also book a guided tour to Cova de s'Aigua, where you will see stalactites, stalagmites and a crystal clear lake that will impress you.

As an extra plan during the Menorcan night, I can not fail to propose a visit to the cinema. Although it is an activity that we can enjoy in our daily life regardless of the city where we are, going to the cinema in Ciutadella is a very entertaining activity that I recommend you to do.

The ideal place to enjoy a movie of your favorite genre is at the Cinemes Canal Salat. In case you are not staying in Ciutadella, but in Mahón, you could go to the Ocimax Maó Aficinet.

As in any other similar venue, in both cinemas you will have the possibility to eat some snacks and appetizers. It can also be a good plan if what you want is a quiet evening before going to your room or after a guided tour in Mahón in Menorca.

The good thing about Menorca is that in any bar you can get a great variety of cocktails, however, not all places offer signature cocktails. Some examples are Cafè des Museu and Moonlight Cocktail Bar.

• Moonlight Cocktail Bar** is located in Cala Blanca and offers a wide range of signature cocktails. It has London, American and Spanish influences to provide the customer with the most exquisite cocktail experience on the island. Its terrace is located in front of the cove, so you will have a beautiful view while tasting the signature cocktails. This bar also offers you a restaurant where you can taste Menorcan gastronomy.
• Another option to taste signature cocktails is Cafè des Museu, located in the historic center of Ciutadella.

In the center of Mahón you will find Nou Bar, one of the best options if you are looking for a comfortable and pleasant place to spend a nice time with friends or family. The highlight of this place is its open-air terrace where you can have a coffee while enjoying the sunset or the Mahon night.

The menu offered by this bar-restaurant is quite extensive, so you can choose from multiple dishes or tapas to recharge your batteries. Another of the advantages of this bar are its economic prices, in addition to live music. The quality of the place speaks for itself. I recommend you to try the tapas that are on the menu before ordering something stronger to eat.

If by chance you would like to go during the day instead of going at night, this meeting point par excellence also offers a wide menu of lunches, typical dishes of the island and, above all, desserts that you will surely love. Undoubtedly, it is a place you should not miss. As you can see, the list of things to see and do in Menorca is very interesting and the night is not short.

A similar experience to that of Cova d'en Xoroi can be lived in Sa Cova. Since 1970 this place has become traditional on the island of Menorca. It is located inside a natural cave, in the heart of Mahón. Its festive and cozy atmosphere makes it one of the favorite places for tourists and visitors.

In Sa Cova you have the opportunity to taste exquisite dishes and a wide range of Mediterranean cocktails. One of the most interesting attractions of this place, and that will make you hallucinate, is the view from inside the cave to the outside. As for the food, in addition to being traditional, it has a varied offer that adapts to the taste of each visitor.

If you want to continue eating something at night overlooking the sea, Sa Cova will undoubtedly surprise you. It is one of the places that I recommend you to visit for its easy access, its affordable prices and its varied menu. Among the meals you can try in the restaurant are:

• Mussels with sobrasada de Menorca.
• Lobster Hamilton.
• Caldereta.
• Braised squid with pine nuts and tomato vinaigrette.
• Seafood fideuá.
• Beef tenderloin with sweet potato parmentier.

Jazzbah is a local located in Ciutadella. Ciutadella is the city of the island with more nocturnal activity, so it is not surprising that its bars and places to spend the night partying are really special. What stands out most about Jazzbah are its theme parties. In particular, the flower theme party is well known.

In this bar you can also taste delicious cocktails and tapas, as well as spend the night dancing and enjoying a great nightlife. The activity plan is very varied, so I recommend you to check the musical and activity offer of the place. In case you like surprises and want to enjoy a fun night with lots of drinks, this place will definitely be waiting for you.

In Mahón you will find one of the best places to enjoy live concerts. This venue is located right in front of Mahón's square, a good place to see the concerts that the place offers. The interesting thing is that some live music shows have very reduced prices and others are free. In this place you can taste tapas, exquisite cocktails and refreshing drinks of all kinds.

The music that enlivens the night is present throughout the year. They usually present dj's of international fame, local groups and singers with an impressive talent. Undoubtedly, Sa Terrassa des Claustre is a place that offers the capital of Menorca to spend a pleasant time listening to good music and tasting some typical dishes.

The itinerary of this place and its music offer varies constantly, so I recommend that before visiting the place, you find out about the concerts and shows they offer every day. This is definitely a good idea if you are staying in Mahón and want to do a different activity before resting.

If you want to eat something beyond the traditional gastronomy, Paput Burgers and Cocktail is your choice. In this place they offer multiple fillings for burgers, so you can choose from a wide variety to satisfy your cravings. In addition, an extensive cocktail menu is available.

In case you want to go with children you can also do so, since it is not a place exclusively for adults. They also have a wide range of non-alcoholic soft drinks to accompany the burgers.

But this restaurant, which is open until late at night, not only has hamburgers. There is also a wide variety of tapas dishes. Undoubtedly, it is one of the places of preference of the Menorcans in the evening. I recommend this place for its excellent musical atmosphere and also for its pleasant atmosphere to enjoy good food with family and friends.

If you are looking to try a shisha, Shisha Club is your place. The shishas have a great variety of flavored essences that, in addition, do not contain nicotine. This bar also offers an exclusive atmosphere where you can enjoy exquisite cocktails, good music and tapas.

Another of its attractions are the different sections into which the place is divided. They offer visitors a unique and different experience in each of them. You have the opportunity to hang out in the garden terrace, the disco or the dance floors.

In case you want to dance until the end, Shisha Club is an excellent option, since its musical offer is really varied and you can go from one musical genre to another. It is an excellent place to have a quiet or party night, all in one place.

The party in Mahón lasts until dawn in its popular bars and pubs. Specifically in the Mambo Deluxe bar you will have the opportunity to dance to different musical rhythms and stay at the party until six in the morning. It is one of the most crowded and visited places of the Minorcan nights, perhaps because of its great musical offer.

It consists of several atmospheres among which it emphasizes the one of the terrace where, in addition, you will be able to enjoy the views. This bar does not open on Mondays and Thursdays. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays they open their doors from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m., while from Friday to Sunday they open special hours, from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m.
