Platja des Caials

Platja des Caials, Stone beach in Cadaqués, Spain.

Platja des Caials is a pebble beach on the Mediterranean coast, located about 2 kilometers from central Cadaqués. The shoreline consists of gray stones and stretches approximately 40 meters along the water's edge.

The cove lies at the tip of the s'Oliguera peninsula, bordered by Punta de s'Oliguera to the east and Punta des Caials to the south. In 1917, during the First World War, the British steamship Llanisshen was torpedoed by a German submarine and sank about 15 metres deep in front of the beach. In 2021 an explosive device was found under the water of the Cala Caials.

The beach lies at the tip of the s'Oliguera peninsula, in a residential area 2 km from Cadaqués, between the Punta de s'Oliguera to the east and the Punta des Caials to the south. A row of stones divides the 40-metre pebble shore into two halves. In 2021 an explosive device was found underwater in the Caials cove.

The beach lies at the tip of the s'Oliguera peninsula, in a residential area about 2 km from Cadaqués, between the Punta de s'Oliguera to the east and the Punta des Caials to the south. It faces south-southeast and is made mainly of pebbles, with a line of stones dividing it into two halves. There are no facilities on site, so bring what you need.

About 15 metres deep in front of the beach lie the remains of the Llanisshen, a British steamship sunk by a German submarine's torpedo in 1917, during the First World War. In 2021 an explosive device was found underwater in the Caials cove.
