Reported good with little kids

The small cove fills quickly and parking at Platja Fonda costs €3, with spots unavailable after mid-morning on busy days.
Watch for jellyfish
One visitor reported jellyfish stings while swimming between coves, though they had only seen them near the entrance.
No facilities at the cove
Toilets and restaurants are a short walk away at neighboring Aiguablava beach, not on-site.
