S'Albufera de Mallorca is a nature preserve on the Balearic island of Mallorca.[1]

The preserve contains the largest and most important wetland of the Balearic islands. The wetland was formed out of an ancient lagoon, separated from the sea by a series of dunes, which most of all due to human influence has been filled by sediments by now. The natural preserve comprises now 1708 hectares.
