Information

Cala Pedrosa is a stunning hidden gem located along the Costa Brava, perfect for a tranquil day out. To reach this small pebble beach, visitors must navigate a challenging path for about 10-15 minutes, surrounded by beautiful nature. While the access is difficult and parking is minimal, the effort is rewarded with crystal-clear waters ideal for snorkeling, even if the marine life may not be as abundant as in other areas.

Highlights:

  • Beautiful and serene location away from the crowded beaches.
  • Great spot for snorkeling with clear waters.
  • Charming beach bar offering refreshments.

Considerations:

  • Access is complicated, with a rocky path and small pebbles making it difficult to set down towels.
  • Parking is limited, requiring a walk from nearby areas.
  • Visitors should be cautious of urchins and slippery surfaces.

Location

Palafrugell - Provincia de Girona - Spain

Positive experience: After a 10-minute descent along a trail, you have access to this small pebble beach away from the crowds of the Costa Brava. Beware of sea urchins; it's best to bring beach shoes.

Positive experience: Very beautiful cove located on the Costa Brava, ideal for spending a quiet time. ❗️Difficult access since you have to walk 10 - 15 minutes through the forest to get there. ❗️Almost non-existent parking, there are hardly any places to park on the road as is the case with other coves. ❗️When entering, there are medium-sized stones that are very slippery and even if you wear water shoes, you can still slip. ✅Ideal for snorkeling, the fauna is not the best but the water is even clearer than in other coves.

Negative experience: It's not worth going down there. It's a difficult and long path, and when you arrive, you get disappointed; water with many waves, the place is very rocky and complicated to get in and out of the water.

Positive experience: Ideal para ir con la pareja. Aguas cristalinas, pero....nada de arena. Todo piedras, imposible colocar la toalla. Hay q andar unos 10 minutos por un acantilado para gozar de esta salvaje calita.

Positive experience: Lieu unique, pas facile d'accès, mais ça vaut le détour. Plage de galets et grosses pierres. Il y a normalement moyen d'y manger mais avons été hors saison.

Manuel Espigares 3 years ago

Negative experience: Cala bastante peligrosa! El ayuntamiento tendría que señalizar el GR que hay desprendimiento de piedras cuando los que hacen el recorrido por las escalera! Ayer le cayó una piedra a mi mujer en la cabeza! Vaya susto,agradecer a la policía local y bomberos por su rápida atención.

Negative experience: Cher, nourriture très simple et on paie en liquide, paiement en carte refusé...Le restaurant profite de son isolement...

Fantastic experience: Spiaggia non di facile accesso, fatta di ciottoli e sassi, è completamente immersa nella natura e nel verde. È possibile arrivare a cala pedrosa via mare o in alternativa dal cammino di ronda di Tamariu e del faro di Sant Sebastià o tramite un viottolo che si trova lungo la strada che unisce Palafrugell a Tamariu. Facendo snorkeling scoprirete diverse rocce piene di ricci e dei fondali molto belli. Malgrado l'isolamento della cala troverete comunque un ristorante a pochi metri dal mare.

Fantastic experience: Hemos ido a la cala desde Tamariu. Es un camino de ronda muy variado, pero se puede hacer perfectamente. El chiringuito está genial. Si vas con perro te ofrecen agua. La dueña es una señora muy agradable. El menú vale la pena, sobretodo la fideuà.

Fantastic experience: Fins al dia d'avui i dels llocs que he probat, el millor lloc per filmar un bon snorkel, aigua més neta impossible i amb sort s'hi pot trobar bons bancs de peixos.

Fantastic experience: Caleta de pedres d'aigua transparent, ideal per fer snorkel. S'hi pot arribar a través del camí de ronda des de la platja de Tamariu, uns 30 min. Hi ha un bar on es pot menjar o prendre alguna cosa.

Positive experience: Cala no accessible amb cotxe, però de fàcil accés pel camí de ronda (10-15 minuts). Molt maca, ofereix diversos racons per explorar fent snorkel, però sovint hi ha molts vaixells que fan soroll i fins i tot embruten l’aigua. A la platja hi ha un restaurant molt cassolà que et fan sentir com a casa, tot i que és una mica car.
