Castell beach is located a few meters from the Iberian town of Castell and, obviously, integrated within the area of natural interest of the castle of Cap Roig. The Aubi channel flows into it and offers more than 300 linear meters of fine sand. Pine trees are part of the landscape, wherever you look. Despite being far from the urban core, this beach offers a large number of services. This includes a kayak school and walkways for people with reduced mobility, among others. It is highly recommended that, in addition to diving into the water, you take a walk around this area. There is a large car park a short distance away, which in the summer is for a fee.

Platja del Castell

Highlight • Beach

A beach of approximately 300m of fine sand that can be reached by walking along the Camino de Ronda or by car, as it offers a car park a few meters away. Its name comes from the fact that the Iberian town of Castell is located a few meters away.
There is a kayak rental service, highly recommended to visit the Roca Foradada inside.

A dream along the coast from Palafrugell to Sa Riera. Little traffic in the morning at sunrise and the temperatures are bearable.

A superb gravel ride - not a novice ride in places but definitely suitable for intermediate and expert riders - slight detour needed depending on time of year as at 1 point it takes you through a campsite ( closed Feb )
