Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Les Coves, also called Platja dels Grills, is notable for its exceptionally narrow shape: its 500-metre length narrows to just 3 metres in width. The strip, composed of golden sand and pebbles, lies in an isolated setting with a semi-urban frontage and calm waters, although the listing also notes windy conditions. Occupancy is recorded as high despite its narrow section. It can be reached easily on foot or by car from the C-32, C-31 and A-7; there is also parking for more than 100 vehicles and an interurban bus service.
