Cala s’Alguer

We dedicated a special article to this beautiful cove, Cala s’Alguer, with all the details of its history linked to the fishermen and the Camí de Ronda that leads to it. Undoubtedly, one of the best beaches in Palamos.
La Fosca
This beach has a very distinctive aesthetic, defined by a large rock known as the “black rock” that divides it into two spaces. This rock is shrouded in legends about this place, “La Fosca”, which we encourage you to discover! Also, the surroundings are so nice and family-friendly, with cool bars, shops, and restaurants. Perfect for a fun beach day!
Platja Castell
Besides being one of the best beaches in Palamós, Platja de Castell holds historical significance as it is home to archaeological remains that date back to ancient times. You can also enjoy water activities, such as snorkeling or kayaking, while enjoying beautiful views of the Mediterranean coastline.
Cala Estreta
This cove has a challenging access compared to the previous ones. The coastal path leading to it involves some technical difficulty, so the easiest option is to access it from the Cala Castell parking lot, following the indicated trail.
