Paya de Aro
8 Felix

A great spot for a day in the sun! There's plenty of room to spread out and plenty of activity, making it a great place for snorkeling. You'll be able to spot a variety of aquatic life when you take a dip. The sand and water are also kept clean, and there are plenty of eateries nearby. If you're feeling adventurous, take a short walk to the downtown area, which is close by.

Platja de Sant Pol
8 Emily Park

This beach near s'Agaro is absolutely stunning - the golden sand, easy parking, and array of activities make it a perfect spot for the whole family. Children can enjoy playing in the sand, while adults can take advantage of paddle boarding. It's the perfect place to relax and have fun!

Platja d'En Calau
6 Alexandros Adshead

That place may seem small, but it has a stunning shoreline. The view is nice, but it's nothing extraordinary. All in all, it's an average beach with nothing that stands out.

Cala Pedrosa
8 Eduardo Ferreira

This spot is the cream of the crop when it comes to the Catalunya coast.

Cala Maset
6 Danielle Hampton

This spot is a hidden gem! It's tucked away in a cute cove and you have to take a trail to get to it. The water is crystal clear and the beach is rocky, but it's still a great spot to relax in peace and quiet. Sadly, there was quite a bit of rubbish around, but it was still a great experience.

Cala del Crit
8 Samantha

This spot has a stunning cove, and is very tranquil. The water is crystal clear and well worth the walk it takes to get there. If you're sensitive to the terrain, make sure to wear appropriate footwear, as there are a lot of rocks when you enter the water. Also, please note that this beach is a nudist beach!
