Negative experience: The beach looked nice, but I went to see the sunrise while paddle surfing and it turns out that the beach is private, only for members, as it even had a gate and you couldn't enter. The friendly guard gave me the whole explanation, so I made a trip in vain.
Fantastic experience: I went today, one of my favorite places. ENTER THROUGH THE MOUNTAIN PATH, as the entrance has a locked gate. Today it was full of jellyfish and I had to fight with a 10-year-old boy to stop him from taking them out and killing them, the parents didn't care, drinking beer. He caught with a net and killed about 3. There should be someone to set limits. I'm leaving the best photo I took, clear water, you can go in comfortably as you can see the jellyfish.
Negative experience: This is a PRIVATE beach!!! Gates closed, no public access!!!
Positive experience: Lovely small and secret beach, not easy to access so there aren’t many people there. Amazing views of the cliffs. Rocks and the path next to it are really dirty though, they even put extra trash cans there but nobody cares.
Positive experience: Very good, it's a pity that there is a locked gate from the port to enter it; you can only access it from outside the port via an easy mountain path.

Fantastic experience: Minie plage où les chiens ont pu venir..car aucune surveillance. Très peu de personnes.. Juste une base nautique à côté..
Positive experience: Un poquito complicado entrar pero genial para pasar un día tranquilo de playa, los perros pueden entrar así que si no te gustan quizás no es el sitio donde quieras ir, en general muy limpia y se respira un ambiente agradable

Positive experience: Es una playa pequeña, con arena un poco pegajosa y el agua algo turbia. Pero está muy bien

Positive experience: La playa (pequeña y de difícil acceso) mantiene el encanto de no tener socorrista (para algunos sí lo es). El único pero es que según que día huele muy fuerte el alcantarillado

Negative experience: Hard to reach, you will need to walk through some bushes to access it, water full of algae, I only see benefits for those who want to hide.

Fantastic experience: Cerca de Barcelona , poco concurrida limpia y com buenas vistas
Positive experience: Playa tranquila (hasta las 17 HRS). Bastante sucia y con muchas medusas. Desconozco si esto pasa siempre.

Negative experience: When this beach was unknown, it was great. Now it's brown, filthy, and tends to be quite crowded. It's not what it used to be. You used to be cool.
Negative experience: This is a PRIVATE beach!!! Gates closed, no public access!!!

Fantastic experience: Small and beautiful beach next to the marina. It's easy to get to it from the way to Shark's Fin.
Negative experience: Someone please put a stop, for God's sake, to all those who come with speakers blaring, the chibcha, and a small stove to make fire and heat it.
Fantastic experience: My favorite beach to go with my dog Gaia, she loves it and so do I. People are very aware of animals and the environment is very nice. Accessing it is somewhat complicated, as you have to leave the car up... There is no proper path, and it's a bit costly to go up with your stuff. It's also a nudist beach as far as I understand, although the truth is I haven't confirmed it...
