Es Migjorn

Cities - Villages

This is the newest village of Menorca and its neighbours have always been immensely proud and dedicated, but until 1989 it was part of Es Mercadal. Here in the narrow streets there is a gentle rhythm to life and a tradition of extraordinary longevity – amongst others who topped the hundred years, Joan Riudavets was born in this village and died in 2004 at 114 years old. The famous folklore figure Francesc d’Albranca was a local, and the village library contains a magnificent collection of Menorcan folklore. To meander through the streets and surrounding country lanes is pure delight, but there are also lovely beaches close by: San Adeodato, Santo Tomás and Binigaus.
