Round trips by boat (some with glass bottoms) leave from the harbour front to see the islands, forts and creeks of the long natural harbour. Mostly seasonal; check departures on the quay.
Food stalls set around the arcades of a former convent cloister, with a terrace looking down over the harbour. Try the local Mahón cheese.
