This beach is located on the Collioure side of Banuyls and is one of the smaller ones. It's easily accessible for those in wheelchairs or with strollers. The beach is situated in a pretty cove and is conveniently located along the coastal path, making it a great spot to take a break and dip your feet in the water. Additionally, there's parking available right in front of the beach.

The beach was exceptionally clean, boasting a blue flag and crystal-clear water. The sand and mix of small and large stones made it perfect for observing fish. Despite being out of season, I appreciated the peacefulness and the opportunity to disconnect and enjoy nature. Overall, I would rate it a 10 out of 10 🐟🐟🐠🐟🐠🐟🐠 🐡.

This beach is fantastic - you can spot fish right in front of you without having to go far. Don't forget your masks! You have the option of pebbles or sand, depending on your preference. Although the water can be deep in some areas, it is crystal clear and immaculate. There is also a spot in the middle where you can jump (I can't remember the name of it). Overall, I highly recommend this beach.
