Guide
Good to know
Come for the Dalí house views
The cove's main appeal is the picturesque setting and its historical connection to the artist's residence and inspiration.
Visit outside summer peak season
The cove becomes crowded in warm months, with parking filling by late morning and the village losing.
Plan for rocks, not sand
The beach is mostly rocky with minimal sand, shallow water, and boat traffic rather than a traditional swimming beach.
Bring water shoes or check conditions
Reviewers report sea urchins, rusty debris, broken amphorae fragments, and sharp objects hazardous to bare feet in the water.
