With the weather heating up, the beach is likely to be your prime destination in June in Santa Ponsa.

June is the start of the high season in the resort. However, the crowds only begin to arrive toward the end of the month, so most June days are still relatively quietet with excellent beach weather. A suggested thing to do is going on an excursion to Es Trenc beach, a full-day trip that takes place every weekday from June through September. Es Trenc is often considered to be the most beautiful beach in Majorca. It's sometimes referred to as the Caribbean of Majorca for its spectacularly blue water.
