Es Trenc in April: A Mallorca Beach Escape from Hotel Amic Horizonte

Palma Bay in the morning. Es Trenc by lunchtime.

Some Mallorca days deserve a place in your holiday before you arrive.

Breakfast at Hotel Amic Horizonte, a drive towards the south of the island, a walk beside the turquoise waters of Es Trenc and a meal at 5illes in Colònia de Sant Jordi.

Then return to Palma, with another part of Mallorca added to your memories.

This is one of our recommended days out from the Horizonte — especially in April, when a beach visit can become a spring escape filled with walking, scenery and good food.

Choose your dates, book your hotel and give yourself time to explore.

Es Trenc: one of Mallorca’s most emblematic beaches

Located in southern Mallorca, in the municipality of Campos, Es Trenc is one of the island’s best-known coastal landscapes.

Its appeal lies in the setting: pale sand, changing shades of blue and a coastline connected with dunes, salt lagoons and natural habitats.

The beach forms part of the protected Es Trenc–Salobrar de Campos area. It is a place to enjoy thoughtfully, following marked access routes and respecting the surrounding environment.

Come for a walk, a quiet moment beside the water or a swim when conditions suit you.

Es Trenc is a public beach. The special part is the day you make of it.

Why we recommend April

April is an inviting time to combine Palma and Mallorca’s coastal landscapes.

Rather than planning the whole day around sunbathing, enjoy a longer beach walk, discover the surroundings and leave time for a restaurant visit.

Spring weather varies. You may find sunshine and pleasant conditions, but also cooler temperatures, wind or rain. The sea can still feel cold.

Bring layers, comfortable footwear and a flexible plan. Check the forecast before leaving the hotel and adapt your day accordingly.

April can also coincide with Easter holidays, so quieter conditions are not guaranteed. Compare dates if you have flexibility.

A beach escape can be memorable long before the height of summer.

Start your day at Hotel Amic Horizonte in Palma

Your base is Hotel Amic Horizonte, at Carrer de Vista Alegre, 1, in Palma’s Bonanova neighbourhood.

Overlooking Palma Bay, close to Porto Pi, the Port of Palma and the Paseo Marítimo, the hotel lets you combine a city stay with excursions around Mallorca.

Book a room category with sea views if that is part of your ideal holiday. Choose a rate with breakfast or ask about adding it.

Then set aside a day for the south coast.

You do not have to choose between Palma and a special beach day. Enjoy both during the same stay.

From Palma to Es Trenc: plan the journey around your day

For an independent excursion, a rental car gives you flexibility.

From Palma, plan your journey towards Llucmajor and Campos, then follow the route to your chosen authorised beach access. Access points and parking arrangements differ, so decide where you are heading before setting off.

Ses Covetes is one area to investigate for reaching this coastal landscape. Colònia de Sant Jordi offers another setting for combining the coast with time in town and a restaurant visit.

Do not assume every restaurant or parking area is directly beside your chosen stretch of Es Trenc.

Allow time for the drive, parking and walking. Check current access information, use designated parking and keep dune areas clear.

If you prefer not to drive, ask about transport or excursion options available for your date. Any arranged service requires separate confirmation.

Make 5illes part of the experience

After time by the sea, continue to Colònia de Sant Jordi and make room for a meal at 5illes.

The 5illes group has different restaurant concepts in this southern Mallorca coastal town, each with its own setting and dining experience.

For this excursion, explore 5illes BEACH&SUNSET if you would like a coastal atmosphere. Alternatively, discover 5illes EAT&DRINK, located at Avenida Primavera, 42, for another dining option in town.

Choose the venue that suits your day. Check seasonal opening dates, the current menu and reservation availability, particularly when travelling in April.

The restaurant stop is separate from your hotel booking unless expressly included in a confirmed proposal.

Our recommendation: give lunch its own time. A memorable Mallorca day should never feel rushed.

A day with space for the simplest pleasures

There is no need to fill the excursion with stops.

Walk beside the sea. Notice the colours of the water. Take a few photographs and then put the phone away.

Continue to Colònia de Sant Jordi for your meal and a stroll, choosing the distance that suits you.

Es Trenc can be part of a romantic trip, a day with friends or an independent holiday. The rhythm is yours.

The beach provides the landscape. You decide how to enjoy it.

Return to Palma — and see the bay differently

After discovering the south coast, return to the Horizonte.

Perhaps you will spend the evening on a terrace. Perhaps you will head out into Palma or simply enjoy a quieter end to the day.

During the rest of your stay, explore Bellver, El Terreno, Gomila, Porto Pi and the Paseo Marítimo, or dedicate a day to La Seu Cathedral and the historic old town.
