Alcudia Spain

Hi Everyone,

I thought I would do a blog about a beautiful place in Mallorca called Alcudia.

Alcudia is set in a little bay on the east of Mallorca it has beautiful beaches and cool markets. Its also worth while taking a stroll along the promenade to see all the yachts. There are plenty of tasty restaurants and nice places to eat you defiantly won't go hungry. This was my first foreign holiday and I absolutely loved it.

I have been here twice now the first time was for my sisters 30th birthday. Which we spent all the time on the beach or in the bar. One of the days at the beach we rented a boat/slide thing I don't have any photos though didn't think it was a good idea to take the camera into open water.

It had a great club at the far end of the town and we ended up there most nights it was like 5 clubs all in one which was pretty cool.

And thats probably all anyone needs to see of the nights out. On one of the days out we decided to go down to the market but when we where coming back we couldn't get a taxi or a bus anywhere so we seen these horse pulled carts and decided what the hell lets get one of those back, it was pretty cool if not a bit bumpy.

Alcudia is set in around a mountain range which is beautiful to look at first thing in the morning. Luckily enough in the hotel we stayed in there was a small balcony so you could stand and look at all the gorgeous scenery.

The second time I went my boyfriend and I decided to take a trip out on canoes which was really fun I've never been canoeing before. The company we went with where called Sports&Nature they took us to a beach where we made our way around the coast and stopped at some caves.

The guide then took us up some cliffs and jumped into the sea (well Robi did I was too chicken). The instructors had also brought equipment for snorkelling which was really fun. I've never been snorkelling and I did find it a bit challenging at the start because I kept holding my breath, but after a while I got the hang of it.

We also found a really nice pizzeria along the promenade on one of our last nights if we had found it earlier it would have been pizza every night (all inclusive food gets a little monotonous after a week). These were and still are the best pizzas I have ever tasted. 

The days on the beach where pretty chilled and also quite limited as Robi forgot to put suncream on his legs and got pretty badly burned. However we did find some time to build a sandcastle and then we found this cute crab :)

Then we seen this sandcastle and didn't feel quite as proud of ours.

We also did some exploring through the markets and old town of Alcudia.

We took a hop-on hop-off tram ride around the city and walked about a bit this was great we were able to see loads and find some cool places to eat, shop and explore.

That night we took a walk down the promenade and went to an open roof bar, after a while we took a walk down by the yachts and found this guy doing cartoon portraits so we sat and got one done (its pretty funny).
