On the site of a former dynamite factory (it was in operation from 1870 to 1984) there is now a listed building with, among other things, an open-air museum area, a viewing point, a workshop and a beautiful beach. Entry is free and there is usually enough parking available.

Forat Beach

Highlight (Segment) • Beach

A small but beautiful beach in Forat. Also called "Platja del Forat" in Catalan, this beach in a bay invites you to settle down. The place is very small and consists of only a few houses.
