Ses Covetes  Mallorca

The name of this village means 'small caves' and this is believed to refer to Roman burial chambers on the same site. Nowadays people come here for one thing to get to Platja Es Trenc, a 3km stretch of fine white sand backed by gentle dunes. This has long been an unofficial nudist beach, even during the puritanical Franco era. It no longer has the hippy atmosphere of old, but it still makes a peaceful, less commercial contrast to some of the other beaches on the south coast.
