Enjoy a holiday in Can Picafort, one of the main tourist centres of Mallorca and discover all its interesting heritage.

Can Picafort is a small town located on the bay of Alcúdia, and belongs to the municipality of Santa Margalida. What was once a small fishing village has grown to become one of the main destinations to enjoy the beautiful beaches of the largest of the Balearic islands. That’s obviously one of the main reasons to look for cheap trips to Can Picafort, but there’s plenty of other reasons to visit other than the sun and the beach.

Those who prefer a more cultural type of holiday are sure to appreciate a visit to the necropolis of Son Real, a funerary site in a unique location by the sea. The oldest buildings you’ll find here date back to the 7th century BC, and their excellent state of preservation is impressive. You’ll also want to enjoy the area surrounding the necropolis, declared a Natural Area of Special Interest for its tremendous environmental value.

If you feel like leaving your daily routine behind, lying on the sand and relaxing with the sound of the waves crashing as the soundtrack to your holiday, our package deals to Can Picafort are for you. Once here, you can enjoy the beach of Son Bauló, a semi-urban area next to Son Real. If you prefer to explore more unspoilt corners of the island, then set aside part of your stay to visit the beach of Son Serra de Marina or Muro. Can Picafort is also a good starting point to discover the neighbouring towns, such as Alcúdia or Pollença, as well as the rugged landscapes of the Serra de Tramuntana.

What are you waiting for? Check out our offers on trips to Can Picafort, where you’ll also find a wide range of hotels and restaurants. Can Picafort is 33 miles from Palma de Mallorca and can be reached by train or bus from the capital the Balearic Islands. However, if you prefer to make the most of the north coast of Mallorca, we recommend you rent a vehicle to tour the area at your own pace. Treat yourself to a well-deserved relaxing holiday!
