Cala Montjoi

Cala Montjoi is a shingle beach along the Costa Brava stretching 280 meters with a width of about 30 meters, composed of dark sand mixed with pebbles. The seafloor descends steeply, creating good underwater visibility.

The location gained prominence through the El Bulli restaurant, operated from 1961 to 2011 under chef Ferran Adrià, which revolutionized cooking techniques and drew global attention. This establishment transformed the area into a destination for culinary exploration.

The beach sits within a holiday village that hosts organized activities connecting visitors with local maritime traditions. This setting creates spaces where people gather and share experiences throughout the seasons.

The beach provides showers, restrooms, waste bins, and a large parking area for convenient access. A diving center on-site offers equipment rental and instruction for visitors of different experience levels.

The steep underwater slope creates unusually clear waters that allow visitors to see marine creatures even from the surface. This makes snorkeling and shallow diving particularly rewarding without requiring deep descents.
