Beaches in Can Picafort — 2 of Our Favourites

Situated a short walk from the southern point of Ca’n Picafort in northern Mallorca, Son Baulo is the newest part of the larger town. Built in a more modern and generally more tasteful style than the rest of the town, it has its own sandy cove of a beach which is less busy than its neighbour. 

Hotels
There are a number of hotels and apartments just set back from the beach and there are numerous options including four star hotels in adjacent C’an Picafort,  most noticeably one that backs onto the beach and has its own restaurant, pool and beach access.

Restaurants
C’an Picafort has a number of bars and restaurants offering Mediterranean and international cuisine as well as supermarkets, pharmacies and souvenir shops plus an evening craft market from 6pm -11pm in the Summer months. 

Nightlife
Certain beach bars here are open until 10pm and there are several cocktail bars just set back from the beach. For those heading towards C’an Picafort, you will find numerous cocktail bars, some featuring music until late. 

The tourist focussed beach is family friendly and packed with amenities, making it extremely busy in the peak summer season. The beach is packed with sun loungers, from one side to the other and several rows deep. If you don’t mind being in close proximity to your fellow sunbathers and right in the action, this could certainly be the spot for you.

Comprised of one long commercial strip offering everything a holidaymaker could possibly need; the resort offers supermarkets, pharmacies, souvenir shops, duty free shopping, excursions & tours, car & bike hire, as well as a variety of hotels and restaurants to suit every budget. English and Irish bars far outweigh any authentic Mallorquin culture here. You can further enjoy extensive shopping when visiting nearby streets: Paseo Colom and Josep Trias. If however, you prefer greater spatial boundaries, continue walking along the beach towards quieter Playa de Muro which is less crowded and is backed by sand dunes rather than shops.

Restaurants
There are several restaurants, cafés and bars along the seafront, all targeting an international and budget friendly crowd. The commercial strip bordering the beach has a pedestrianised zone running the length of the waterfront. This is packed with lively and themed restaurants and bars, offering long happy hours, giant cocktails and live evening entertainment.

Nightlife
Attracting mostly Northern Europeans and predominantly German tourists… If you prefer bar hopping to hardcore clubbing, C'an Picafort's mix of Brit bars, karaoke and live (often tribute) bands, all offer a fun night out. If even after all of this, you still fancy a bit of a dance… there's an old-skool disco on Avenida Jose Trias with three dancefloors and six bars.

Hotels
Being a purpose-built hotel resort since the 60’s, the area of C’an Picafort offers numerous and varied accommodation options at competitive prices, with several of them boasting knockout high-rise sea views.
