The route to the beach is marked by a bright yellow X. It is incredibly charming, scenic, and the water is crystal clear. The pathway is somewhat challenging, making it unsuitable for individuals with restricted mobility.

Fantastic secluded beach, perfect for escaping the masses. Make sure to wear sturdy footwear to prevent any slips. Don't forget to pack comfortable sandals as the pebbles can be dark and scorching hot.

A lovely beach, pristine and uncrowded, featuring smooth stones instead of sand. Access may be challenging for those with physical limitations, as it involves navigating a steep dirt path along the Sentier du Littoral linking Cerbère and Argelès-sur-Mer.

Challenging to reach. Limited beach space. It would be delightful to have it all to yourself, but the journey to reach it is a bit of a risk.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Cap Canadel beach (Pyrenees-Orientales) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Cap Canadel beach (Pyrenees-Orientales) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Cap Canadel beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
