Guide
Good to know
Go in winter for solitude
The cove is deserted in cold months, offering a peaceful experience away from summer visitors.
Ideal for snorkeling and diving
Crystal clear water and abundant fish make this a strong choice for underwater exploration and beginners.
Visit June through early July
Summer crowds are lighter than typical Costa Brava beaches, and water is calm during this window.
Wear water shoes for entry
The beach is rocky and pebbly throughout, making bare feet uncomfortable when wading and swimming.
No facilities nearby
Bring your own water and use facilities before arriving, as there are no toilets or vendors on site.
