There is to be further restoration of the towers that were built in 1941 for submarine target practice and of the machine gun nests that date from the Civil War. The one-time stone quarry in Son Real and the necropolis are also to receive funding. There is to be more excavation at the necropolis, one of Mallorca's principal archaeological sites.

Walks, such as the Camí de la Mar de Son Serra de Marina, are to be improved and to be supported with QR codes for accessing audio guides that explain the background to them.

In addition, the town hall is to further develop art as a tourism aspect of Santa Margalida. Sculptures have been acquired and these are to be placed in strategic points. This is along the lines of the exhibition of sculptures by Pollensa artist Joan Bennàssar that were installed on rocks in Can Picafort a few summers ago. There is to also be an extension of the urban art festival, which until now has been held each October.
