Platja del Cantal Roig

Platja del Cantal Roig is a 220-meter-long beach with fine golden sand on the Mediterranean coast of Calp. The cove is framed by distinctive red rocks and offers a direct view of the striking Penyal d'Ifac rock formation.

The beach grew around Calp's fishing port, which developed as a maritime hub and maintains that role today. The red rocks that name the beach served as landmarks for seafarers since ancient times.

The name comes from the reddish rocks that frame the bay and shape its appearance. Fishermen still use the adjacent port actively for their daily work.

The beach has showers, restrooms, and lifeguard service, plus accessible entrances for people with limited mobility. The best time to visit is early morning or late afternoon to avoid crowds.

Tidal pools form in shallow areas beside the beach where you can watch sea creatures in their natural setting. These rock pools are perfect for small snorkeling adventures and nature watching.
