Mix indoor and outdoors activities for any weather changes.

Enjoy Es Mercadal's great restaurants and Cafe bars. Great artisan food shops and some boutique shops too.
Ciutadella City
Ciutadella in the low season is a comforting wrap of tranquility with spanish style for the good things, taken at a slower pace than summer. A time to enjoy great Tapas, cafe chats and get that table at some of the city's most popular restaurants. The historical city centre is small , pedestrianised and an invisiting maze of beautiful architecturally rich and interesting alleyways and side streets - with surprises for the curious!
Endulge in some fantastic artisan food shops and patisseries ('pastelerías'), drink some velvety Vermouth ('vermut') in local bars
