Platja de Pals

Platja de Pals, Mediterranean beach in Pals, Spain

Platja de Pals is a 2.8-kilometre beach of medium and fine sand, over 50 metres wide, in the municipality of Pals. It is divided into three sections: Platja Gran, classified as urban, and Platja del Grau and Platja del Massot, classified as natural. To the east runs a long dune belt with fixed dunes, and to the north the beach reaches the Basses d'en Coll.

The beach borders the medieval town of Pals, which developed during the Middle Ages and preserves its original stone buildings and defensive towers. This long connection between coastline and settlement has shaped the region for centuries.

The beach is split into three sections: Platja Gran, classified as urban, and Platja del Grau and Platja del Massot, classified as natural. The name Pals comes from the municipality, and the beach is part of the Montgrí, Medes Islands and Baix Ter Natural Park since 2010. Local group Salvem la Platja de Pals campaigns to protect the dunes from future building.

The beach provides showers, toilets, and lifeguard services during summer months. Parking is available in several areas along the beach throughout the swimming season.

On the fixed dune behind the beach stood the Radio Liberty transmitter site, which first broadcast in 1958 and was demolished in 2006; its metal towers reached 169 metres. The sand around the former antenna ground now holds sea lily and sea stock, plants of the original dunes.
