Colònia de Sant Jordi, Coastal village in Ses Salines, Mallorca, Spain.
Located on the southeastern coast of Mallorca, Colonia de Sant Jordi features several sandy beaches with fine white sand and clear Mediterranean waters.
The settlement began as a fishing village in 1879 when the Marqués del Palmer established an agricultural colony that gradually transformed into a tourist destination.
The salt production at Sa Vall continues through traditional methods during August, maintaining practices that date back to the fourth century BC.
The marina offers daily excursions to Cabrera Island National Park, while the local market presents regional products every Wednesday morning.
The area contains prehistoric sites including Talaia Joana and Es Talayots de Na Mera, stone structures from the Bronze Age that reveal ancient agricultural practices.

Mallorca offers diverse landscapes where fine sandy beaches and wild coves surrounded by limestone cliffs succeed one another. On the northwest coast, Sa Calobra marks the spectacular mouth of the Torrent de Pareis, while Cala Figuera nestles between the rocky walls of Cape Formentor. To the southeast, near Santanyí, Caló del Moro and the Mondragó natural park reveal other facets of the Mediterranean coast. The island's architectural heritage reflects centuries of history. In Palma, the Gothic cathedral from the 14th century dominates the port with its nave standing 144 feet (44 meters) high and 61 stained glass windows. The round Bellver Castle, built in 1311, is perched on the heights of the city. The Drach Caves in Porto Cristo reveal an underground world spanning approximately 0.75 miles (1.2 km), including Lake Martel, one of Europe’s largest underground lakes. The Alfàbia Gardens in Sóller preserve Moorish hydraulic art from the 13th century, while the Roman site of Pol·lèntia in Alcúdia dates back to the 1st century BC. To the north, the s'Albufera natural park conserves 4,200 acres (1,700 hectares) of wetlands hosting over 250 species of migratory birds.
