Sights
Church of Santa Maria
The town's main church, famous for its huge 19th-century organ; short organ recitals are sometimes held at midday in season (check locally).
Mahón cruise quay (harbour front, Moll de Ponent)
The map point is the Estació Marítima on the town side of the harbour.
Getting into town
Walk along the flat quayside to the foot of the old town, then climb the steps of Costa de ses Voltes or take the public lift up to the centre: allow 10–20 minutes depending on where your ship is tied up. Some cruise lines run a shuttle; taxis can usually be found on the quay. Check on board for the exact berth.
Step-free
The quay is flat; a public lift (listed on OpenStreetMap as open 24 hours and wheelchair accessible) climbs from the harbour front to the town, so you can avoid the steps.
