Es Trenc

Es Trenc is a long sandy beach on Mallorca's southern coast, oriented northwest-southeast with water facing southwest. The spot combines a sandy beach break with nearshore reef and rock formations visible in the satellite imagery. The beach is backed by dense Mediterranean vegetation and some agricultural land, creating a relatively sheltered setting despite open water exposure. Wind reliability is notably low at 7.9%, making consistent sessions infrequent. Average conditions show minimal wave energy (0.71m), requiring moderate winds to generate workable swell. Best conditions arrive with northeasterly or easterly winds creating side-shore flows. The shallow, rocky nearshore requires careful navigation, particularly during low tide when reef hazards become more pronounced. The spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters during favorable wind windows, though the combination of low wind frequency and limited wave energy means success depends heavily on reading weather forecasts. Water temperature averaging 18.8°C requires seasonal consideration. Local knowledge of tidal cycles and rock positions is valuable for safe operation.
