It offers narrow streets, white houses with tiled roofs and traditional two-storey fishermen’s houses. Located in a rocky area surrounded by small coves.

Cala Estreta
It is a group of coves with coarse sand and a modest width, hence its name. In some of its sections the water invades the sand when the sea is rough. Its high scenic value, together with crystal-clear waters, make it one of the most emblematic corners of the Costa Brava. It has an old fishermen’s shelter from the 16th century. It takes a good walk to access it by land, which ensures a low influx of people even in the summer season. It is suitable for nudism.

El Vedell
It is an absolutely unspoilt area, with a land route that is not suitable for everyone, which means that most access is by small boat that anchors off the coast. The cove is made of rocks and pebbles that have been rounded by the action of storms. The numerous reefs that surround it give it a great richness of seabed and it is undoubtedly an emblematic environment, although only within reach of the most experienced.

Illes Formigues
A group of islets that can be seen on the horizon from Calella de Palafrugell, which owe their name to the fact that they are small and numerous, forming a silhouette similar to these small insects. In 1285, it was the scene of one of the most spectacular naval battles of all those experienced on the Costa Brava. Surrounded by rocky areas and reefs, it is an area with an abundance of life, but requires careful navigation to avoid colliding with any of the numerous submerged rocks that surround it.

It is surrounded by coves with crystal-clear waters; from ‘Aigua Blava’, passing through ‘Sa Tuna’ and ‘Agua Freda’ and reaching ‘Sa Riera’. Without a doubt all of them of extraordinary beauty, but not very suitable to visit them on days of Tramuntana winds due to their exposed geography on the north face.
