Rent a Car in Es Castell

Es Castell is a historic town immediately south of Mahón with clear British colonial influences in its architecture and urban planning. Mahón city center is just 3 km northwest (5 min), and the port with ferry connections is reached in 10 minutes. Only one rental company exists locally, so book well in advance.

The town's central square, Plaça de s'Esplanada, is surrounded by British-inspired buildings and cozy cafés. Cales Fonts is a popular harbor promenade with outdoor dining open late. The beach Cala Corb is within walking distance of the city center.

Combine your rental car day with a visit to Mahón's harbor (3 km) and a drive along the south coast toward Binibeca Vell (12 km). Park free at the town's edge and walk into the historic center. Pick up your rental car early in the day – the only local rental company may have a limited number of vehicles.

Why does Es Castell have British architecture? The town was founded during British rule in the 18th century and was called Georgetown. The grid-plan layout and building style bear clear traces of this.

Is there only one rental company in Es Castell? Yes, the selection is limited. Alternatively, you can pick up a car at Menorca Airport (14 km, 18 min) for more options.
