About Port de Alcúdia

Port d’Alcúdia was originally the primary port of the north of the island but has grown to be a very popular holiday resort town in the past 30-40 years. The main draw is the long beach along the waterfront, which is usually packed with families and other tourists during the summer months.

Best Time to Visit

If you’re coming to the town to enjoy the beach then the best time to visit Port d’Alcúdia is in the summer between June and September when the weather in Mallorca will be very hot and sunny, the sea will be warm and the chances of rain are very low. However, if you want to avoid the crowds that flock to this part of the island in the tourist season then you’ll find that early spring or late autumn are the best times to visit Port d’Alcúdia for a quieter atmosphere.

Best Things To Do In

The best thing to do in Port d’Alcúdia is definitely visit the beach. There is almost 3km of sand stretching out along the front until it reaches Playa de Muro, meaning that you’ll find space to spread out a towel or a picnic blanket even if it’s busy.

As well as sunbathing or relaxing on the sand, there are plenty of watersports on offer to tourists at the beach in Port d’Alcúdia, from paddleboarding to kayaking and snorkelling. You can also board a boat at the port and sail down the coast to one of the nearby towns or out into the ocean for a diving trip.

Best Places To Go In

The most popular attraction in Port d’Alcúdia is the beach and all of the attractions that line the promenade, from cafes to bars and little shops. Because of the large number of families that visit the area, another top place to go is a large waterpark very near the town that is full of things for children and their parents to enjoy.

A little further afield from Port d’Alcúdia is the town of Alcúdia, which is a historic destination that has more cultural attractions on offer and is a great place to visit for the day. If you get tired of the town’s beach, Playa de Muro is quite close and offers even more beautiful coastal scenery and beachfront attractions.

What our guests say

“

Fantastic home for a fantastic stay. We loved our time here and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing time away. Top tips from us - don’t stress about parking, the roads are very narrow and parking isn’t easy so use the car park on the way in to Pollensa. It’s only a 5 minute walk and is very safe. There is a lovely bakery just 2 minute walk away on the main road in and not far from the chemist. Enjoy!

Great villa, comfortable beds, clean and the welcome pack was really appreciated. Good location and the pool and table tennis went down very well with everyone.

Charming and lovely townhouse in the old part of Pollenca. Recently refurbished to a very high standard. House is really well equipped. ACs in all the rooms meant it was never too hot even in the August. High walls give a lot of privacy and also make the sun more bearable. Pool was lovely. We quickly got used to parking in the side streets around the house, but it is also possible to park slightly outside the town. We used a car to go Puerto Pollenca to get to the fantastic beaches. Their Internet was good enough for video calls for work Communication with the manager was easy and quick. Would clearly recommend and also go back.

"The villa was very well presented, spotlessly clean, and surprisingly well equipped – it even had a tea-pot! The welcome pack was probably the best and most comprehensive I’ve seen!.. Pollenca is a good base if you want to have good access to the coast without being in a coastal resort."

We had a great stay and the communication with Colin was brilliant. The villa is very clean and spacious and the beds are comfortable. The pool area is fantastic and the steps in are great for children. The pool was also really warm considering it’s not heated and the view of the mountains is fantastic. Lovely quiet area but a 25 min walk into the square in Pollenca and 5 min drive to the Port. Lovely area and lots of great restaurants and beaches nearby. We were a family of 8 (7 adults and one child) and would definitely like to return :)
