1. Es Trenc
Es Trenc is a 7KM long, protected nature reserve located on the East coast of Majorca.
It’s surrounded by sand dunes & salt processing flats.
Due to its protected status, the area has very low levels of commercial development & is ideal for getting away from it all.
It’s a little out of the way & nudist bathing is common throughout the beach.
The beach has some of the clearest water you’ll see anywhere in the world.
In August the shallow waters heat up to around 30c, so it’s like getting into a nice bath during a hot, sunny day!
