Alcúdia
07400 Alcúdia, Balearic Islands, Spain
Alcúdia is a charming historic town on Mallorca’s north coast, centred on an exceptionally intact medieval walled old town with narrow cobbled streets, lively shops and cafés, and easy access to long sandy beaches, a marina and the nearby Roman ruins and nature reserve.
What Makes It Special
Its exceptionally well‑preserved medieval walls and gate towers—many of which you can walk along or through—give the old town a distinctive, atmospheric sense of history and great vantage points for photos.
Insider Tips
Explore the walled old town early in the morning (or late afternoon) to avoid the heat and day‑trip crowds, combine the walk with a visit to the nearby Roman site of Pollentia, and bring comfortable shoes for the cobbles.
