Can Picafort, Mallorca Spain

Can Picafort is a tourist resort on the Bay of Alcúdia. Between the Port d'Alcudia in the north of the bay and Can Picafort, there is a five kilometre long sandy beach lined with hotels. The protected Albufera swamp borders about 2 kilometers of the bay and prevents the two tourist resorts from joining. The 8 square kilometre wilderness is a good alternative to the tourist resorts and can be explored by renting bikes. Can Picafort is well set up for tourism and the beach's promenade offers many bars and restaurants. One can shop by day and stroll the pedestrian area in the evening. Can Picafort isn't just popular during peak season. Off-peak is however considerably quieter and many of the businesses close. Already in the 1990s the population here exceeded that of the main town Santa Margalida and the town has become an important residence. Major items of infrastructure can also be found here. From the neighbourhood of Son Bauló one can reacht the necropoles of Son Real, and situated on a nearby island, S'Illa d'en Porros. Both are the remains of the Talaiot culture from the early history of Majorca. From there a shore hiking path leads to Son Serra de Marina.
