About Alcudia

If you’re considering a trip to the jewel of Spain, look no further than the picturesque town of Alcudia in Mallorca. Perched on the sun-drenched eastern coast of the island, Alcudia offers a delightful blend of old-world charm, breathtaking landscapes, delectable cuisine and invigorating activities that promise an unforgettable travel experience for all.

At first glance, Alcudia’s historic old town is sure to mesmerize you with its well-preserved medieval walls and cobblestone streets. Nestled within these imposing 14th-century ramparts, you’ll find a labyrinth of narrow alleys flanked by traditional stone houses adorned with vibrant, blooming bougainvillea. The heart of the town, Placa de la Constitució, is a lively square brimming with bars, restaurants and craft shops. Close by is the Church of Sant Jaume, a majestic gothic-style structure offering sweeping views of the town and beyond from its bell tower.

Venture beyond the city walls, and you will discover Alcudia’s stunning port, boasting one of the finest beaches in Mallorca. The wide expanse of soft, golden sand slopes gently into the turquoise Mediterranean, making it ideal for families and those keen on water sports. A serene walk along the picturesque promenade allows you to bask in the Mediterranean sun while savouring a flavourful ice cream or exploring charming local boutiques. If you’re lucky, you might even spot dolphins dancing in the distance!

Just a stone’s throw away from the beach, Alcudia’s bustling marina is teeming with vibrant restaurants serving freshly-caught seafood, traditional Spanish paella, and authentic Mallorcan dishes. The nearby nightlife is surprisingly cosmopolitan, with chic bars and live music venues attracting a laid-back crowd.

Outdoor enthusiasts are equally catered for in Alcudia. Embark on a hiking or cycling adventure on the S’Albufera Natural Park’s trails. Alternatively, if water-based adventures are more your speed, enjoy paddleboarding, windsurfing or deep-sea diving.

History buffs are sure to find a visit to the nearby Roman City of Pollentia an absolute treat. This archaeological site, founded in the 1st century BC, offers fascinating insights into ancient Roman civilization, including a theatre, houses, and a forum. The onsite Monographic Museum houses a trove of artefacts unearthed from the site.
