The Old Town

Explore the remains of a Roman settlement in the Old Town. The city’s walls have been restored to a high standard, making it easy to see how the fortified town would have looked during Mallorca’s Roman occupation. You can also visit the market here, which takes place on Tuesdays and Sundays, and is thought to be one of the best on the island.

Sant Juame Church

The Church of Sant Juame is thought to date back to the 1200s, commissioned under King Juame II, and is a perfect example of the neo-gothic architecture that can be found throughout Mallorca. You can admire the sandstone building from afar, or wonder through and explore the many chapels inside.

Alcudia beach

There are many beaches in Alcudia worthy of visit, the main stretch being Alcudia beach. You can take part in swimming, snorkelling, and other water sports, or even charter a boat to get out and have some fun on the waves of the Mediterranean.

Hipica Formentor

This popular stable is a great place for families to enjoy some fun on horseback. There are regular rides departing along the beach or throughout the grounds, while more experienced riders can take part in longer full-day or week-long excursions.
