With some of the fees collected with the eco-tax (which the tourists were paying from May 2002 until October 2003), the government purchased the 400- hectare finca Son Real in the bay of Alcúdia.
It is an interesting place with farmland, an unspoilt beach and archaeological ruins.
It is located in the north of Mallorca on the road from Can Picafort to Artà (kilometre 18).
You can also go to the east from the beach of Can Picafort and after 20 minutes you reach the necropolis. From here there are several dirt roads to the farm.
You could visit the farm and get information on the phone number: [0034] 669 100400 and (0034) 971 185 363. The house is being turned into a museum which should open on 2007. The finca is open from 10 to 19 (1. April to 30. September) and from 10 to 17 (1. October to 31. March).
