Cala S'Alguer

Cala S'Alguer is a charming beach located in the municipality of Palamós, in Girona, Catalonia, Spain. It is nestled in a tranquil corner of the Costa Brava region, known for its beautiful coastline and vibrant culture. The beach is considered isolated, with a width of 19 meters and a length of 66 meters. Its natural beauty is enhanced by the picturesque setting of small white fishing huts and pine forests reaching the sea. The beach is primarily composed of stones and is known for its moderate waves and clear waters. Despite its appealing attributes, the beach can be challenging to access due to the rocky entrance and lacks facilities for disabled individuals. During the high season, Cala S'Alguer tends to be crowded, yet it is considered one of the more peaceful beaches in the region. It is not commercialized, maintaining its simple and authentic charm. Visitors are advised to wear water shoes or rubber-soled footwear due to the rocky terrain. The beach can be easily reached by foot or by car via the C-31, the nearest road. For those arriving by car, there is an unguarded parking lot with over 100 spaces available. The closest amenities, including refreshments, can be found at a nearby larger beach, a 10-12 minute walk away. However, it is recommended that visitors bring their own water and snacks. Cala S'Alguer is located near the Hospital Comarcal de Palamós, the nearest hospital. Despite its proximity to more developed beaches, Cala S'Alguer remains a peaceful retreat for those seeking a serene beach experience.
