Beach at a glance
What it is like
Playa de Sant Simó combines a large urban extent with two distinct settings: one end receives many visitors, while the other, known as El Fortí, is less frequented because of its poorer access. The beach is 1,000 metres long and 20 metres wide, combining golden sand and rock, with calm waters. It is reached on foot or by car from the N-II, C-32 and C-60, with more than 100 parking spaces; it also offers food services and a yacht club.
