Access
|
Short walk |
From Barcelona north to Palafrugel, then further on 31 and follow signs to Pals and towards Torroella de Montgri. Before you get there, you have to turn right. There is a round about just before the bridge, and about 380m before the roundabout a street exits to the right. Turn right here and then after 60m right again. Follow this road (Carretera de la Gola) all the way. Turn left where you can only turn right or left. After 220m right, after 580m left (see the house straight ahead) and immediately right again (it is still Carretera de la Gola). Follow the road until you have a house to the right and a street going to the right just behind it. Don't turn, go straight ahead until you hit the water. Now turn right until you see the ocean. Drive on the beach here.
