CalĂs Beach, also known as Playa Cala CalĂs, is located within the municipality of Roses and is nestled in the Parque Natural Cap de Creus, a protected natural area. Situated at the foot of a cliff, the beach is primarily composed of gravel and features calm waters. The usable sand area of the beach varies greatly due to tidal changes.
The beach is known for its moderate occupancy levels, with about 30% to 70% of the beach being occupied during the high season. This may be due to the beach's isolated location. Despite the isolation, CalĂs Beach has seen an increase in visitors over the years, which has led to it becoming more crowded. Nevertheless, it still retains its charm, with crystalline waters and an impressive cove.
CalĂs Beach has a width of approximately 15 meters, although this can vary significantly. The length of the beach is estimated to be around 50 meters. Over time, the water quality at the beach has been affected by boats and plastic, reducing its once clear and beautiful appearance.
Access to CalĂs Beach can be achieved via a 16-minute hike offering spectacular views of the coves and coastlines. However, caution is advised as the path can become narrow at certain points, with cliffs right beside it. This can be particularly challenging for families with small children. The beach can also be reached via the GR92, although the ground from Cala Montjoi is difficult due to the presence of stones, requiring appropriate footwear.
Regarding amenities, detailed information about the services, hygiene and cleanliness, safety measures, and specific areas within CalĂs Beach is not readily available. For medical assistance, the Hospital Comarcal de Figueres is approximately 24 km away. Furthermore, the Puerto Deportivo Esportiu de Roses, a sports marina, is within a 6 km distance from CalĂs Beach. Lastly, no specific information about parking facilities at or near CalĂs Beach is provided.
