    Have a look here

    Been there but only on a quick visit
    Have a nice day :)
  • Been three times and love it, really good sandy beach very gental slope so it is warm and good for kids and not strong swimmers, resort has entertainment of an evening usualy tribute groups. Old Alcudia and the port are a walk away but give a good change. But it does depend on your age and what you expect. Down side mossies have been known to bite if you are unlucky

    I agree! There are a lot of unlucky people there.

  • We went to Alcudia a few years ago on a family holiday. Is there anything in particular you wanted to find out about?

    Love it there!! Prefer the port end and the old town, have booked to go again this summer. May should see most of the shops and restaurants re opened. Beach is fantastic and sea is shallow for quite a way, so perfect for children and non swimmers. Its a really lovely island. Enjoy.

    Hope you can afford it what with the tax credits, free school meals, JSA, payday loans and so on...

    Love the north of Majorca, especially out of season.
    Be careful if you decide to drive along that long thin peninsular north east of Alcudia. Stunning views, but not much fun for the driver!
