Listed below are some of the favorites though this does not necessarily mean that they will be crowded. A lot depends on the time of the year.
Aigua Blava
An idyllic cove at the end of a winding road through a hillside of pine trees & villas. There are a couple of small restaurants (Such as Les Acacies) at the bottom serving inexpensive but good quality food.
Tamariu
A pretty fishing village and resort close to Palafrugell. Small cafes and shops on a broad promenade surround a delightful beach. Has its own scuba diving school.
Sa Riera
Sa Riera is very close to Pals beach In fact you can walk from Pals beach to Sa Riera. It does however mean crossing 'Playa Nudista'! Pleasant cafe (Restaurant Miramar) for lunch over looking Sa Riera beach.
Pals Beach
A long flat and sandy beach close to the Plas Golf Course. Ideal for sun bathing, swimming and wind surfing Safe for children with rocks only at the Southern end.
Lafranc
A pretty little resort with an attractive promenade of cafes and restaurants surrounding a sandy safe beach.
La Fosca & L'Escala
La Fosca is 20 minutes south of Pals and L'Escala is about the same distance North at the Ruines of Empurias.
Aiguafreda & sa Tuna
Aiguafreda and sa Tuna are more coves than beaches, though sa Tuna does have a pebbly beach in front of the charming tiny promenade with its picturesque restaurants. At Aiguafreda there is the Sa Rascassa diving school and a restaurant. Both found down a windy road from Begur.
