  • Nice, sandy beach with lots of food stalls around it. From the beach you can take a boat tour to the caves or go on a bigger boat along Costa Brava up to Blanes.

  • Nice, clean beach with crystal clear water. The beach has a lot of people visiting all day and hence it's lively full time. There are food outlets right outside the beach which makes it easier to stay on the beach all day. It is a pebble beach so appropriate shoes should be worn. Beautiful picturesque beach.
  • Love it. Great view of the mountain wall.
  • Beautiful beach. But as cons beach clean up wouldn’t hurt this place since it’s frustrating to see some litter on rocky slopes and at the sea bottom right near shore. Seems rain water washes off garbage from town which suggests town can’t keep up with high season tourists flow to properly manage waste.
  • One of the nice beach in Costa Brava!
  • Nice views and good food and drink places around. The water was a bit dirty at times but we found that the right side was the cleanest. The sand is thicker so bring something for your feet else it might hurt a bit.
