Positive experience: Je ne suis pas trop d'accord avec certains avis, je trouve que la plage est basic, en règle générale il y a des palmier là juste des tamaris qui ne sont pas de mon goût. Qui plus est ce n'est pas une crique mais une plage plutôt grande, le parking est très petit ce qui signifie que pendant la période estivale inutile de vouloir venir en voiture. Je suis venu de Blanes et le GPS m'indiquait 25mn de trajet en juillet et en août il faut le double. En arrivant deux restaurant aux tarifs plutôt prohibitif de 40/50€, cependant il y a une paillote avec des tarifs plus raisonnable. Personnellement je préfère la crique saboadella où la San Christina

Positive experience: Very clean and nice beach to spend time with family, it is also worth mentioning that there is a place where you can rent kayaks or paddleboards at affordable prices, the only downside is that there are some jellyfish, but other than that everything is great!

Fantastic experience: Olśniewający błękit wody. Plaża ogromna, za skałkami dla nudystów. Dalej, za zakrętem na moście kamienne zejście bezpośrednio do baru plażowego

Fantastic experience: Esta playa es buenísima ! El agua cristalina, tiene excelente temperatura, no tiene tantas olas, es tranquila y no va medio mundo. Puedes llegar en tren, cruzas la calle después de que te bajas y ya llegaste. Tiene chiringuitos cerca y duchas, también tiene muchos negocios cerca, hoteles, restaurantes etc… Tiene estacionamiento al lado también, Creo que es un buen lugar esta playa El único detalle que tiene es que la arena en realidad son mini piedras y cuando entras al agua hay muchas muchas piedras por lo cual te recomiendo salir gateando jajaajjajajaa fue la única solución que encontré hasta ahora… te puedes arrastrar o gatear para que las piedras no te taladren los pies jajajajajaa La otra solución es comprarte un calzado especial para piedras y ahí ya no tendrás más problemas jajajaaj. Para la entrada al agua, que es igual de dolorosa, no encontré ninguna solución jajajajajaja. De todas maneras vale la pena ! La recomiendo ! Es una excelente playa para toda la familia y para tus niños también.

Positive experience: Es una linda playa, pacífica y no muy concurrida (al menos cuando fui). Si bien la arena es muy gruesa y hay muchas piedras acercandose al mar, se puede pasar el día allí ya que es muy extensa y limpia

Positive experience: Very long beach that connects with the next towns. The sand is quite coarse and there are areas where you need to walk over stones to be able to swim.

Positive experience: Esta linda la playa ️ y sus calas cercanas, sin embargo la playa central es rocosa y algo molesta (lleva un calzado adecuado para estar allí) Tienes alguna oferta de chiringuitos e inflables en el agua

Fantastic experience: Hoy muchas olas y no hemos podido bañarnos aunque sí mojarnos Normalmente ambiente tanto familiar como sol@s Siempre por la mañana; las tardes ya son otra cosa..no hay ( para mí) buen ambiente No vivo ahí aunque la tengo cerca y siempre que voy voy muy agusto Siento que ( como nos han dicho ellos mismos) , los vigilantes- salvavidas mañana sea su último dia

Fantastic experience: Lovely Spanish Beach beside the very traditional Spanish Town of Calella. The beach was very clean and well managed and this entire place is a credit to the people of Calella. Old style Spanish architecture is very evident in this town with very friendly people. I will definitely visit here again.

Negative experience: La playa es grande y amplia pero muchos dias viene con basura el agua (palos,troncos, compresas.... todo lo que baja de la montaña) y últimamente hay un problema con las medusas, increíble la cantidad de medusas que hay no puedes ni darte un baño tranquilo, yo que hago paddel surf las veo bien y más de una vez he tenido que avisar a la gente de que estaban rodeados, el aparcamiento es otro problema, en la playa no suele haber nunca sitio y todos los lugares cerca de la playa son de pago, los accesos a la playa estan anticuados, muy anticuados, en casi todos pasas por debajo de las vias del tren y huele a meados y el otro acceso es a nivel de vía, un peligro. Podria ser una playa increible arreglando esas cosas.

Fantastic experience: La playa de Calella, situada en la localidad del mismo nombre en la costa del Maresme, es conocida por su belleza natural y su ambiente animado. Con su extensa franja de arena dorada y aguas cristalinas, es un destino popular tanto para turistas como para locales. La playa cuenta con una amplia variedad de servicios, incluyendo chiringuitos, duchas, y alquiler de hamacas y sombrillas, lo que la convierte en un lugar cómodo para disfrutar de un día de sol y mar. A lo largo del paseo marítimo que bordea la playa, hay numerosos restaurantes y bares que ofrecen deliciosa gastronomía mediterránea y mariscos frescos. También es un lugar ideal para practicar deportes acuáticos, como paddle surf y jet ski. Durante la temporada alta, la playa suele estar animada con actividades y eventos, y hay zonas específicas para familias y para la práctica de deportes. Con su ambiente vibrante, la playa de Calella es perfecta para quienes buscan disfrutar de un día de descanso al sol, practicar actividades acuáticas o simplemente pasear y disfrutar de la oferta gastronómica del lugar.

Fantastic experience: Stayed at the Calella Palace Hotel, it's a MST SEE AND STAY Hotel. Stayed all over Spain this has got to be the best Hotel I've ever had the pleasure of staying in.

Fantastic experience: We stayed in the Hotel Catelonia in Calella & this lovely beach was just a ten minute walk from the hotel.... It's a very large beach with plenty of room for everyone but for non swimmers the sea is quite deep so not ideal for the little ones or people who can't swim...Even so it is a lovely beach to relax on & enjoy the Spanish sunshine...
