Old Town
You shouldn't be forgetting a spot of sightseeing however, and the Old Town is certainly where it's at in Alcudia. Quieter times mean more room to explore, and the cobbled, narrow streets around this part of town are wonderful for checking out the old architecture, exploring the quaint boutique shops, and stopping for a coffee, and watching the world go by. The market on a Tuesday and Sunday is also a fantastic experience.
Despite the 'off' season in terms of tourism in Alcudia during the winter months, this is certainly a resort which continues to entertain regardless of the temperature.
