Environmental estimate

Conditions less favourable for jellyfish arrival

Forecast wind and the regional coastline orientation are less favourable for jellyfish transport towards the shore. This is a limited-confidence regional physical indicator; it does not confirm the presence or absence of jellyfish at this beach.

Beach at a glance

What it is like

Characteristics published by official sources

Playa de Salpatx takes its name from an islet opposite the beach, whose outline resembles a boot. The cove, formed by rounded stones, opens at the foot of a cliff and reaches 170 metres in length but barely 10 metres in width, in an isolated setting with vegetation. It is included in the Les Planasses natural area, within Parc Natural del Montgrí, les Illes Medes i el Baix Ter. Access is on foot and difficult, via the GR-92 coastal path.
