And it is also among the major tourist attractions in the village. One of its visitors wrote on TripAdvisor forum: “We were on a short family holiday staying in Can Picafort, and as a day trip we went to the old town of Alcudia. The public transport service was fantastic and brought us directly at a very reasonable cost.
“The imposing walls and old gate of the city provide a sense of history and the importance of defence in the days gone by.
“Inside those walls we found numerous pedestrianised narrow streets full of shops with all types of colourful goods to entice the tourist to part with some money.
“We stopped for coffee and ice-cream and then again for a rest and a cold drink. It was a very enjoyable change to sitting by the pool, and there was ample opportunity to pick up a souvenir or two.”

The beach is lined with restaurants and cafes serving fresh seafood, tapas, and international cuisine.
Another traveller wrote: “I was staying in Port de Alcudia for one night and almost skipped over Alcudia itself because the port was so touristy and tacky. But Alcudia itself was great.
“I got there at 9am before many of the shops opened and thus I had the whole walled town almost to myself. It’s very well preserved and charming; the information about the walls was hidden in a tower but gave lots of good history.
“As the shops opened, I can vouch for other reviewers who describe that they are a touch more interesting that others I had seen across Majorca. Parking just outside the walls was very easy as well.”
