10 Things to Do in Menorca at Night

Menorcan nights are just as intense as in neighboring Mallorca and Ibiza. The difference between this and its neighbors is that, in Menorca, if you want a plan of quiet activities, you can get it. And if you want a party plan, you also have it within your reach.

Bars, cafés 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 a stargazing tour in Menorca, because due to the low light pollution in certain places of the island, you can enjoy the Milky Way and the constellations with an amazing clarity.

This activity, which lasts approximately 2 hours, is done in Algaiarens Beach, 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 with crystal clear water coves and different types of sand.

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 the island. Legend has it that its name comes from the story of a shipwreck. A pirate named Xoroi was shipwrecked and hid in a cave with a young girl from the village. One winter by footprints in the snow, the villagers 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, this place currently offers a relaxing as well as beautiful environment. If you are looking for a good place to watch the sunset while eating some delicious tapas, this is your place. In Cova d'en Xoroi 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 has several terraces and viewpoints that will allow you to appreciate the entire landscape facing the Mediterranean. A magical place impossible to overlook in the tour of the Menorcan night.

Jazzbah is a venue 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.

If you are looking to try a shisha, Shisha Club is your place. The shishas have a wide variety of flavored essences that are nicotine-free. This bar also offers an exclusive atmosphere in which you can enjoy exquisite cocktails, good music and tapas.

Another of its attractions are the different sections in which the place is divided, to 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, 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 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 right in front of the cove, so you will have a beautiful view while tasting the signature cocktails. This bar also puts at your disposal an adjoining restaurant where you can taste Menorcan gastronomy.
• Another option to taste signature cocktails in Menorca is Cafè des Museu, located in the historic center of Ciutadella.

In Mahón you will find one of the best places to enjoy live concerts. This venue is located just in front of Mahón's square, a great 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 even eat something to eat, 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. It is undoubtedly one of the best places 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 certainly a good idea if you are staying in Mahón and want to do a different activity before resting.

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 one that will blow your mind) 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 the night eating something with a view of the sea, Sa Cova will certainly 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.

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, does not only have hamburgers. There is also a wide variety of tapas dishes. Undoubtedly, this is one of the places of preference of the Menorcans during the night. I recommend this place for its excellent musical atmosphere and also for how pleasant it is to enjoy good food with family and friends.

The party in Mahón goes on 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 if you want. This 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.

One of the best things about this bar that is part of a complex in the port of Mahón where you can get other equally idyllic options to spend the night.

Right in the center of Mahón is this place called Nou Bar, one of the best options you have 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 outdoor terrace where you can have a coffee appreciating the sunset or the city night of Mahón.

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, besides offering 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, this is a place you should not miss. As you can see, the list of activities to see and do in Menorca is very interesting and the night is not short.

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 an 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. This can also be a good plan if you want a quiet night before going to your room.
