Fantastic experience: From Cadaqués, there is a good walking distance and the access is via a path with some difficulty.
Negative experience: I give one star because the beach is inaccessible for someone who suffers from vertigo (my wife had to turn back). The last 300 meters are steep and very narrow, so good shoes are required. Otherwise, the beach is beautiful.
Fantastic experience: Small beach accessible from the path to the lighthouse. So make sure to wear shoes instead of flip-flops when you walk there. Therefore, it's nicely quiet but very beautiful. So don't forget some water: there is no beach hut, etc. Pebble beach, in a bay with cliffs behind you.
Negative experience: Difficult to access and crowded with people and boats that skip the buoys. The peace and calm of the place has been shattered. It's a tourist trap.
Fantastic experience: A small but beautiful cove away from the Cadaques town. 30 min walk from where you can park your vehicle (wear appropriate footwear for stoney path and inclines). Stoney, tranquil beach

Positive experience: Recorrida de una media hora desde cadaqués. Es de piedras pero genial para darse un chapuzón.
Fantastic experience: Cala muy bonita, aunque acceso algo complicado. Merece mucho la pena para pasar un rato largo, poco masificada. De piedras, aguas cristalinas y temperatura agradable del agua.
Fantastic experience: Cala espectacular... Playa con piedras

Positive experience: Sa Sabolla es una playa virgen al pie del faro de cala nans, en Cadaqués. És una playa salvaje, de preciosos cantos rodados y con unas aguas limpias y transparentes que permiten ver un fondo rocoso precioso. Un lugar idóneo para hacer snorkel. Esta playa, al estar muy retirada del pueblo (3/4 hora caminando y 15 minutos en barca) es un tanto bohemia en sus costumbres, mezclándose textil y nudista. Desde la playa se puede ir caminando hasta el faro, en un recorrido de unos 10 minutos por un camino de tierra y rocas, precioso, que lleva hasta el mismo faro de cala nans, desde el que se tienen unas vistas estupendas de cadaqués y de cap de Creus. Si vas a Cadaqués, no puedes dejar de ir a esta cala. La recordarás siempre!

Cove of the Sabolla: Reviews
Fantastic experience: A nice little cove on the way to the Can Nans lighthouse. It's about a 30-minute walk from the center of Cadaqués. At the final part, you have to overcome the elevation from the path to the sea. Not very comfortable for older people.
Fantastic experience: From Cadaqués, there is a good walking distance and the access is via a path with some difficulty.
Fantastic experience: A must-stop if you are going to the lighthouse, it is not overcrowded and every time I go I stop to bathe in the crystal clear waters just before continuing the route to the lighthouse.
Negative experience: I give one star because the beach is inaccessible for someone who suffers from vertigo (my wife had to turn back). The last 300 meters are steep and very narrow, so good shoes are required. Otherwise, the beach is beautiful.
Fantastic experience: Pleasant
Fantastic experience: I recommend going there, both the route and the cove are worth it.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove to visit and very quiet. It's about a 30-minute walk. It has incredible views.
Fantastic experience: One of the most tranquil and beautiful places in Cadaqués, you have to take a little walk to get there, but the surroundings of the path are worth it.
Fantastic experience: Small beach accessible from the path to the lighthouse. So make sure to wear shoes instead of flip-flops when you walk there. Therefore, it's nicely quiet but very beautiful. So don't forget some water: there is no beach hut, etc. Pebble beach, in a bay with cliffs behind you.

Fantastic experience: Short distance from Cadaquès. Nice for swimming.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful spot on the way to the lighthouse
Fantastic experience: Requires a little walk, which allows it to reward those who reach it since there aren’t many visitor. Incredible beach.
Fantastic experience: Very nice small beach. But not private at all, if you know what I mean...
Fantastic experience: Nice 30 minute walk from Cadaques to the pebbly beach of Cebolla at Cala Nans. If you are in Cadaques for a week this should be on your itinerary at least once.
Positive experience: Stone and quiet beach. You have to walk half and hour to get there, but it is worth it. After the beach there is an small light house you must visit.
Fantastic experience: A small but beautiful cove away from the Cadaques town. 30 min walk from where you can park your vehicle (wear appropriate footwear for stoney path and inclines). Stoney, tranquil beach
