Platja de Lloret, Mediterranean beach in Lloret de Mar, Spain
Platja de Lloret is a long stretch of sand along the Costa Brava that extends approximately 1600 meters along the coast and frames the Mediterranean with surrounding rocky cliffs. The width of about 45 meters provides ample space for different activities and relaxation.
The location began as a simple fishing port but transformed into a major tourist destination starting in the 1960s. This rapid change shaped the character of the entire region.
The beach hosts summer gatherings where locals and visitors share experiences centered on regional music and food traditions typical of Catalonia. These events shape how people spend their days along the shore during the warmer months.
The beach is well equipped with lifeguard stations, showers, and various rental options for water sports equipment. Restaurants and cafes directly on the waterfront make it easy to spend the day without going far.
At both ends of the beach, natural coves form between the rocks with shallow, calm water that resembles naturally shaped swimming pools. These formations create sheltered spots for swimming and are especially popular with families with younger children.
