Santa Margalida’s beaches

Santa Margalida is a small municipality about 45 kilometres from the capital, Palma, on the north east coast of the Island of Mallorca, near to the Bay of Alcudia.  It is 10 kilometres inland, with 9 kilometres of coastline nearby, and is the main populated area, the other two being the tourist resorts of Son Serra de Marina and Can Picafort.  The town is small and has kept its old-world charm and gives a enchanting glimpse into a part of Mallorca visitors may not have seen before, and is mainly used by the local farming community.  There are tapas bars, shops, banks, butchers and a supermarket.  About a ten minute car drive will take you to Son Serra de Marina where you will find some good sea food restaurants.  Can Picafort is another one of the great beaches in the area, which is busier, and has a great beach which stretches all the way to Alcudia.
