When the cockroaches go back to their grey homes and the boats are no longer visible in the ocean, this spot is perfect for a peaceful day, lounging in the sun and listening to the birds singing. You will be able to relax and become one with the atmosphere of the place. The wind blowing from Garví can be an annoyance, but when Tramuntana is blowing you won't even notice it. It's an ideal spot until five o'clock in the afternoon. If you look carefully, you can discover its hidden corners - just take a look at the photos!

I have fond memories of this beautiful cove on the Costa Brava, which I have visited since I was a child. With its lush forests, winding trails, and scuba diving rigs, this is a place of incredible natural beauty that must be preserved. What's more, it is free to enter for the public, making it an ideal spot for a day out.

The view was stunning, the beach was gorgeous, and snorkeling was a great experience. Just be aware that you might encounter some nudists.

This stunning beach at the Costa Brava is a sight to behold. With its clear waters and beautiful white sand, it is the perfect place to relax and take in the stunning views. There is also a layer of soft, gray fine pebbles that adds to the beauty of the beach.
