Positive experience: Quiet beach with excellent views. Surely one of the best in Calella. Walk nearby. Relatively central. The parking is a drawback. Just to put a downside, at this time of the year (October), they should perhaps be more flexible with pets.

Fantastic experience: One of the largest beaches in Calella, considering that almost everything is small coves, equipped with all services. The water is clear and clean, coarse sand, (the best sand). In August, it's impossible to find a spot, neither to park nor to place the towel.

Positive experience: Uno de los enclaves más bonitos de la Costa Brava. La playa en sí misma ofrece un paisaje precioso con las casetas de los pescadores y el agua cristalina, un marco ideal. Pese a todo tiene sus contras, como por ejemplo, debido a su tamaño se llena rápidamente dejando poco espacio entre las sombrillas. Otro de los grandes problemas es el aparcamiento, no es fácil aparcar cerca y en ocasiones tienes que recorrer bastantes minutos cargado para llegar hasta ella. Y, aunque tenga sus contras, es una playa muy recomendable para disfrutar de un día de verano sin ningún tipo de duda. Pd: para comer recomendaría ir al restaurante Gelpfish y pedir arroz, realmente bueno.

Fantastic experience: UN PARAÍSO, no se me ocurre otra descripción y aunque ya parece bonito en las fotos, en la realidad todavía es más bonito. Calella de Palafrugell es sin duda uno de los pueblos mas bonitos que uno pueda visitar y además tienes cerca Llafranc, Tamariu, Begur.....una zona ideal para unas vacaciones fantásticas. Eso sí son pueblos marineros, pequeños con la dificultad que eso conlleva a la hora de aparcar, que en verano es misión casi imposible

Fantastic experience: Fantástica, pura esencia Costa Brava. Tiene arena gorda ideal para no ensuciarte. En el límite con Llafranc

Fantastic experience: Spiaggia molto carino seppur piccola in alcuni punti. La sabbia grossa, in alcuni punti veri e propri sassolini ha il vantaggio di non rimanere attaccata alla pelle, purtroppo i più piccoli non potranno cimentarsi in castelli e formine di sabbia. Gli scogli vicini all'acqua nascondono granchietti e piccoli pesci sono uno stimolo per trasformare i bimbi in pescatori con retino e secchiello. I fondali sono adatti per lo snorkeling.

Fantastic experience: Platja d’aigua cristal·lina. Destaca per ser una de les platges més àmplies de Calella de Palafrugell. Ambient familiar i força tranquil excepte el mes d’agost. Rodejada de bons restaurants. Possibilitat de lloguer de caiacs. Una de les millors platges de la Costa Brava.

Positive experience: Es una cala preciosa aconsejo que vallan, el único inconveniente para los fumadores, es que está prohibido fumar. Comimos en el restaurante tony's, un poco caro pero merece la pena ir. Pescado fresco del día y terraza a primera línea del mar.

Fantastic experience: Agradable, silencioso y limpio. Playa con servicios muy limpios rodeada de un entorno plácido y bonito. Sensación de seguridad 100%. Recomendable no hacerse el remolón porque te quedarás sin sitio.

Positive experience: Platja Canadell és una platja no molt gran, por tant s'ha d'anar aviat si es vol està a primera línia, és molt maca i molt adient per la canalla. Hi va molta gent del poble, ara a l'agost no, ara hi ha molts francesos, té dutxes, lavabos, socorrista i tot el que una bona platja hi ha de tindre.
