Port d'Alcúdia
Port d'Alcúdia
A lively beach resort in the north of Mallorca, with a long sandy bay, a busy marina and ferries across to Menorca.
Port d'Alcúdia is a modern seaside resort on the north coast of Mallorca, set along one of the island's longest beaches. It sits about 2km from the historic old town of Alcúdia and is a very different place, built for sun, sand and watersports rather than history. Its marina is also a busy ferry port.
What Port d'Alcúdia is known for
Port d'Alcúdia is best known for its beach, Platja d'Alcúdia, several kilometres of fine white sand with shallow, calm water that suits families with young children. It forms part of an even longer run of sand that curves around the bay through Platja de Muro towards Can Picafort, one of the longest stretches on the island. Behind the beach, a seafront promenade is lined with cafes, bars and shops, and the resort has the busiest nightlife in the north, with the Dollar Street bar strip and clubs like Menta and Banana Club. The marina runs boat trips along the coast to Cap de Formentor and is one of the island's main ferry ports, with fast crossings to Ciutadella on Menorca.

Experiences and things to do in Port d'Alcúdia
The beach is the main draw, with calm water for swimming and plenty of spots to hire a sunbed or try a watersport. From the marina you can take a boat trip up the coast to Cap de Formentor, or catch a fast ferry over to Menorca for the day. Families often head to the Hidropark water park just behind the seafront, while after dark the bars and clubs around Dollar Street keep going late.

Best time to visit Port d'Alcúdia
June and September are the sweet spot, with warm seas and fewer people than the July and August rush, when the long beach and resort strip fill up. Many services scale back over winter, so late spring and early autumn give you good weather with more room.
Getting to Port d'Alcúdia and around
Port d'Alcúdia is in the north of Mallorca, about 55km from Palma and roughly an hour by car or direct bus. The nearest airport is Palma (PMI). From the marina, fast ferries cross to Ciutadella on Menorca in around 75 minutes, and there are seasonal sailings to Barcelona on the mainland.

Travel tips for visiting Port d'Alcúdia
The beach is one of the most family-friendly on the island, with very shallow water near the shore. Stay near the marina end if you want easy access to boat trips and the ferries. It's about a 25-minute walk or a short bus ride to Alcúdia old town if you want a day of history. Book ferry tickets to Menorca ahead in summer, as day-trip sailings fill up. Late spring and early autumn are warm but much quieter than peak July and August.
