Son Parc Urbanisation boasts 2 hotels, fine villas & apartments, shops, bars & restaurants and one of the best beaches on the island. The Mahon airport is located 25 kms away from the complex.

Situated halfway between Mahon and Ciutadella, Es Mercadal almost certainly derives its name from the market held here from the 14th century. The town lies at the foot of Monte Toro, Menorca's highest mountain.

Although tourism plays little part in the town's life, it is certainly worth a visit if you are in the vicinity. Several restaurants here serve authentic Menorcean food and Es Mercadal is also known for its almond biscuits and manufacture of sandals, or abarcas.

Es Mercadal holds its annual fiesta in honour of St Martin on the 3rd weekend in July.
