Playa Cala Rostella, often referred to as Cala Rustella, is a secluded beach situated in the municipality of Roses, in the province of Girona, in the autonomous community of Catalonia, Spain. The beach is known for its tranquility, even during the peak season, and its natural beauty, characterized by clear waters and golden sand.
The beach spans a length of 110 meters and a width of 10 meters, offering a relatively spacious area for visitors. Despite its charm, the beach is not typically crowded, even during the summer months, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a serene beach experience.
However, the beach does not offer amenities and services, so visitors are advised to bring their own supplies. The beach is also not accessible for disabled individuals, and there are moderate waves, making it less suitable for those with mobility issues or those seeking calm waters for swimming.
Parking is available at the beach, with an unguarded lot that can accommodate fewer than 50 vehicles. However, the beach access can be challenging, especially on foot. The closest road to the beach is Ctra. Roses - Cala Joncols. During the summer months of July and August, the road access is closed between 10:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., making the beach accessible only by foot or boat during these hours. Visitors should also note that the descent to the beach from the main road could be steep, so appropriate footwear is recommended.
In terms of public transportation, the beach is accessible via the Interurban Girona - CadaquƩs route. The nearest medical facility is the Hospital Comarcal de Figueres, located in Figueres, for any emergencies.
In conclusion, Playa Cala Rostella offers a tranquil and less crowded beach experience, with its golden sand and clear waters, in the beautiful cove of Roses. However, visitors should be prepared for limited services and potentially challenging access.
