Overview
Alcudia is one of the biggest and most popular resorts on Majorca . Lively in high season and relaxing in low season, it makes a great family holiday. This cosmopolitan resort's main attraction is undoubtedly the 7-mile stretch of sand, which is one of the longest on the island. There is also a wealth of fine restaurants, cafes, bars and shops and a nearby waterpark for the children. Nightlife is plentiful with a wide selection of bars and discos.
Alcudia is split into many sections, each one very different and unique:
The Port of Alcudia is partially pedestrianised, making it an ideal place to sit back and soak up the sun and the scenery of the splendid boats in the luxurious marina. Shopping in the port is ideal for everyone, with shops such as Mango, Gas and Big Banana offering cheap duty free goods. If you fancy seeing the northern part of the island in a different way then take a ride on the sea on a glass bottom boat or catamaran.
The historical Old Town of Alcudia dates back to the 14th century with the old Roman ruins and impressive city walls providing some stunning views and local culture. If street stalls, bartering and a vibrant atmosphere are your thing, then do not miss out on the local market every Sunday and Tuesday
Playa De Muro is a quieter part of the resort but has some great places to visit. The S'Albufera nature park offers brilliant opportunities for walking, birdwatching and sightseeing. For some family fun make sure you visit the Maze for a mind-boggling adventure.
The Bellevue strip is where you will find the more familiar eating houses, bars, shops and in general lively tourist area.
