About
Es Trenc is a beach on the southern coast of Mallorca, in Spain. It is often called the island's Caribbean, a nickname that points to its white sand and clear, shallow water. Much of the stretch remains largely undeveloped, which gives it a quieter feel than many of the island's more built-up resorts.
What to expect
The beach is backed by protected dunes and salt flats, and that natural setting shapes the visit. Rather than a line of hotels and restaurants, the land behind the sand is left largely wild. The result is a place to spend a relaxed day by the sea, with the dunes and flats as a backdrop.
Planning a visit
- Come for a beach day: the appeal here is the sand, the water and the open setting.
- Bring what you need with you, since the undeveloped character of the shore means facilities are limited.
- Respect the protected dunes and salt flats by keeping to the paths and leaving the natural surroundings as you found them.
- Check ahead on access and conditions before you set out, as these can change.
Around the area
Es Trenc sits in the south of Mallorca, so it pairs well with a wider trip around the island's southern coast. Visitors who want more than sand and sea can use the area as a base for exploring the surrounding landscape and the other beaches of the region.
