Information

Cala Rovira is one of the top beaches on the Costa Brava, known for its beautiful rough sand and quick access to the water. It's highly appreciated for its clean, crystal-clear waters that make it ideal for snorkeling. The beach is spacious and well-maintained, with a traditional beach bar that serves tasty food. Visitors have noted the easy access and the peaceful atmosphere, especially in the mornings when the crowd is smaller. However, during peak times, finding parking can be challenging.

Highlights:

  • Stunning views and a magical atmosphere.
  • Clean, clear waters with colorful fish.
  • Family-friendly environment with facilities available.

What could be improved:

  • Occasional overcrowding and noise from other beachgoers.
  • The bar can be difficult for families to navigate due to seating restrictions.
  • Pets are not allowed on the beach.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful cove on the Costa Brava with coarse sand and a sandy bottom. From the beach, there are spectacular views of Playa de Aro at the Hotel and Restaurant Cost Brava and surely...to the Mediterranean Sea))). With the coastal path, it's very easy to reach the smaller and more beautiful beaches of Costa Brava! Cala Rovira, Cala del Pi, and Cala Beladona are very close to here! You must come to this beach to enjoy life!

Fantastic experience: You have to get to the Roman ruins, and there is access to reach the 2 coves. It can be a bit hard to park depending on the dates, but the coves are calm and have coarse sand, so cleaning yourself up before leaving is super easy.

Fantastic experience: It's one of my favorite places. Within a few minutes of walking, you have 2 more coves nearby. But Rovira is quite spacious. There is parking available in the vicinity; depending on the time and season, it can be a bit more complicated. But it is free and paved. There are several rocks to walk around the area.

Positive experience: Cala Rovira. A beautiful cove, the water is crystal clear, the waves are very low, the sand is more like coarse/medium stones. Let's get to what matters: There are bathrooms and showers, plus a beach bar where the food is excellent. There is no way to reserve a table for lunch, so at the time you want to eat, you have to wait in line. Perfect for snorkeling. I recommend water shoes for entering the water. Pets are not allowed. The parking, if you arrive early as in most places, you can find it close to the beach, but if not, you need to walk a bit, parking is possible.

Fantastic experience: Visité esta playa paseando con los perros. Fuimos entretenidos, la gente la atmósfera, el mar increíble. Un pasillo que lleva desde la playa mas grande a las calas. Disfrutamos de una mesa de un bar junto al mar. Elegimos quedarnos en el interior - para disfrutar del aire acondicionado . Solo quiero decir que, además de una buena comida, tuvimos un encantador paisaje. Un encanto

Fantastic experience: Fascinating beach at the North of Platja D'Aro. If you need to get away from the busy part of the town, this wilder corner is for you. Middle size sand, crystal clear waters and the usual combination of sandy and rocky parts of Baix Emporda with its rosie tones.

Fantastic experience: This beach is simply a dream! Everything is incredibly clean and well-maintained, which makes the stay here especially pleasant. The water is crystal clear, and it's teeming with colorful fish – ideal for snorkeling! Especially in the morning, the beach is a real highlight, as it’s still pleasantly quiet and you can fully enjoy the beauty of the place. An absolute insider tip for anyone looking for relaxation and pure nature!

Negative experience: The beach is beautiful but it has lost that essence of a quiet and family-friendly beach. The last few times we have been there, we encountered uncivilized people with music playing at a very loud volume and out-of-tune looks, which ultimately leads you to choose to leave.

Fantastic experience: I nice little beach just a stone throw away from the hotel I stayed in. Just a 5 minute walk to the end and through the rocks reveals a breathtaking little extension to the beach, it was a little piece of paradise.
