The resort of Port d'Alcudia is situated in the north of
Mallorca at the top of a long curving bay with an endless white
sandy beach. It is two miles (3km) south of the historical old town
of Alcudia, from which it takes its name. The sprawling,
purpose-built resort, together with its neighbour Playa de Muro,
stretches for five miles (8km) either side of the coast road and is
particularly popular with British, German and Scandinavian
families. It has a fairly relaxed atmosphere; its spectacular beach
is the major attraction, though it is also well placed for
exploring the attractions around the north of the island.
