About

Platja de Vallpresona is located on the Balearic Sea (part of Mediterranean Sea) and it is in the 134th place out of 189 beaches in the Girona region 28.1 km away from its center, the city of Girona. It is one of the beaches of Urbanitzacio Giverola settlement, just 2.5 km from its center. The beach is located in a natural place.

It is a small bay with crystal blue water and brown pebble, so it is recommended to wear special shoes. The sharpness of entering the water is quite normal. This beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travellers, relaxation getaway lovers, hikers etc. It is almost deserted place even during the high season.

Platja de Vallpresona coast is free for all. It has no amenities, only nature. .

In addition to swimming and sunbathing, you can also take part in other activities.

16 more beaches are also available within a 5 km radius. The best one is Cala Pola, which has a rating of 9.5.

Platja de Vallpresona (Girona) region (Costa Brava sub-region) is located outside the Urbanitzacio Giverola settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the correct question is not how to get to Platja de Vallpresona, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.

8 Very good

The beach was a bit of a trek, and the climb was grueling. Instead of sand, there were only large stones. Additionally, it was not particularly clean.

Platja de Vallpresona was not what I anticipated. Reaching it was a challenge, but it was filled with pleasure boats. Instead of sand, it was composed of only stones, which was a surprise.

This nudist beach is definitely not for families. With no sand in sight, only stones, it's an uncomfortable experience. Getting in and out of the water is a challenge, as you need to be careful with your balance. All in all, this beach is not recommended.

This spot is a great to unwind and soak up some sun. It's clothing-optional, so you don't have to worry about taking off your clothes. There's no sand, just rocks, but the view is absolutely stunning.

This place is a true hidden gem! A 15-minute path leads to the cove, which is well-marked with a few tricky spots. The shore is made up of stones, so it's a good idea to bring a sponge or two to place underneath your towel. When I visited on September 19, 2018, I had the entire beach to myself - apart from a couple who stayed away from me. All in all, it's a wonderful place to spend a day.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Platja de Vallpresona (Girona) 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 Platja de Vallpresona (Girona) 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 Platja de Vallpresona 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.
