| Port d'Alcúdia |
| Mallorca Towns |
 The beach at Alcúdia is 6 miles (9.7 km) long and stretches as far as C'an Picafort. Alcúdia joins on to Playa de Muro which is home to S'Albufera. This is a protected nature reserve that is very popular with bird-spotters. All along the white sandy beach it is possible to rent pedaloes, parasails, banana boats, tubes and the like. The sea is very shallow for quite a distance away from the beach making it perfect for small children, and there is little, if any, tide. There are also bars/restaurants at regular intervals on the beachfront. As you move South the resort gets quieter but the sea is not as calm. From Port d'Alcúdia there is the opportunity to take boat trips around the coast of the north part of Majorca. There are also daily ferries to Minorca and Barcelona as well, but only during the tourism season.
The port has very classy establishments lining the harbour. There are also nice shops along the harbour where you can buy porcelain, jewellery and the like. The harbour is pedestrianized and beautiful to walk along in the early evening.
Alcúdia is less than one hour from Palma Airport by car.
