Water visibility is usually excellent, especially in the mornings. Very close to Alcudia, you can also explore Formentor Beach and Cala Sant Vicenç for additional snorkeling experiences.
What are the best beaches in Mallorca for families with children?
Playa de Muro is ideal thanks to its fine sand and shallow waters. Alcudia Beach offers full services (lifeguards, showers, beach bars). For a quieter option, Alcanada Beach is perfect. All are just minutes from Alcudia. Additionally, Port de Pollença offers a family-friendly beach with calm waters and plenty of activities for children.
Can you try paddle surfing in Alcudia if you’ve never done it before?
Yes, Alcudia Bay is perfect for beginners due to its calm and shallow waters. Several rental centers in Playa de Muro and the Port of Alcudia offer boards with introductory lessons included. The more sheltered areas of Port de Pollença are also excellent for learning paddle surfing.
What marine life can you see in the waters around Alcudia?
In Alcudia’s waters you can see wrasse, seabream, starfish, sea urchins, octopus, and occasionally sea turtles. Posidonia seagrass meadows are a UNESCO World Heritage Site and host extraordinary biodiversity. During our boat excursions, snorkeling stops allow you to enjoy this marine richness. If you’re looking for dolphins, dolphin-watching tours from Alcudia are an excellent option, departing very early in the morning to maximize sighting chances.
