MalibuCA Posted November 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2015 Can you tell me where we access the Old Town perimeter walls so that we can walk above the town when we visit Puerto de Alcudia, Spain? Is there an admission fee? Thanks, Shelley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wowzz Posted November 10, 2015 #3 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I assume you are talking about Alcudia in Mallorca? The walls are in Alcudia, not Puerto de Alcudia, which is a tourist resort. No entry fee, and access to the walls is easy - just walk round the base to one of the entry staircases. The wall is not very long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalibuCA Posted November 11, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am talking about Alcudia. Our ship will be in the port. To clarify, we just walk through the gate and the stairs are right there? Thanks, Shelley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowzz Posted November 11, 2015 #5 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I wasn't aware cruise ships docked at Alcudia ? Surely they dock at Palma. As I recall, there are 3 gates, only two of which are still connected to the walls. Seriously, the walls will only take you 5 minutes to walk around, so no need to worry about access.

campolady Posted November 12, 2015 #6 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) I wasn't aware cruise ships docked at Alcudia ? Surely they dock at Palma. . Several cruise lines are docking at Alcudia next year. It is not a port I would chose an itinerary for personally - certainly not a patch on Palma - but perhaps a useful change of destination for people who have visited all the usual Med ports on past cruises. http://www.majorca-mallorca.co.uk/alcudia.htm A short distance from Alcudia (just 13km so wouldn't cost much in a taxi) is Pollensa town that is far more interesting and well worth a visit IMO http://www.seemallorca.com/pollenca Edited November 12, 2015 by campolady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowzz Posted November 12, 2015 #7 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Totally agree about Porto de Alcudia - no reason to visit there at all, although I suppose as a 'beach day' it might be OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornishpastyman1 Posted November 13, 2015 #9 Share Posted November 13, 2015 Thanks for your advice. I'll check it out. Shelley Hi Shelley This is not much of a video but at around 2.50 it shows the walls at Alcudia, plus a bit of the town. All the best, Tony [YOUTUBE]e35Mq0d53v4[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalibuCA Posted November 14, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Thanks, Tony. Great video! I can see now that the wall is not a big area, but very easy to access. Great to see! Shelley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
