Cala Millor -- Turism
Ciutadella, a major urban centre, was the former capital of the island of Minorca. A journey through the streets of its historic quarter, declared a National Historic-Artistic Monument, will bring you closer to the noble and religious history of this city.
The earliest reference to settlements in this area dates back to the arrival of the Carthaginians, who populated the island. Later on, in the 13th century, it was reconquered by Alfonso the Liberal. At that time, the island went through a boom period that led to the construction of many great houses and churches. In 1558, the city was destroyed by the Turks. It took a year for it to be rebuilt and when it was complete a wall was erected to protect the city. Within it, numerous palaces were built. Ciutadella lost the status of capital of Minorca with the British Invasion of 1722, although the bishopric remained there as the maximum ecclesiastical authority. In the 19th century, the wall was demolished and new districts were built farther away from the historic quarter, marking the beginning of the boom in the jewellery and shoemaking industries.
Ciutadella's port is a very interesting place to visit as well. Along its coastline you will find beautiful coves like Forcat, Blanes, Santabria, Blanca, etc.

Situated in the heart of Nueva Andalucía, in the so-called Golf Valley, is the Real Club de Golf Las Brisas, one of the oldest courses on the Costa del Sol. The intense professional activity of Robert Trent Jones, one of the most famous golf course designers, reached a peak in 1969 with the opening of the Real Club de Golf Las Brisas. The designer created a course which demands accuracy on the part of players and where it is not enough to hit long shots, but rather you have to use your head. The layout contains a lot of water hazards, ten artificial lakes, ample protection from bunkers and greens which are mostly raised. All of this lies in a unique natural setting.
