| Ses Salines | ~10-12 min | Quiet, authentic inland village, houses and fincas | Those after rural calm with their own car |
| Sa Ràpita | ~5-10 min (north end) | Residential coastal town with a marina | Those who want to be right by the north of the beach |
| Ses Covetes | Walking distance to the north access | Tiny hamlet, almost no services or parking | Those who put being on the sand above all |

There’s nothing on Es Trenc itself
Es Trenc is a protected natural area, so there are no hotels or apartments on the beach — that’s exactly why it stays so wild and beautiful. Anyone who says they’re “on Es Trenc” is really in a nearby village. So the question isn’t where to stay on Es Trenc, but which base gets you there easily.
Colònia de Sant Jordi: the best base
The closest real base with life, restaurants and services is Colònia de Sant Jordi, about 10 minutes by car from Es Trenc.

See how to reach the beach in the Es Trenc guide.
