Platja d'Aiguablava, Mediterranean beach in Begur, Spain.

Aiguablava is a small sandy cove near Begur on the Costa Brava in Spain, enclosed by rocky outcrops and pine-covered slopes on three sides. The water stays shallow close to shore and becomes gradually deeper toward the center of the cove.

In 1860 the beach was recorded as belonging to the municipality of Esclanyà, before the area was incorporated into Begur. The Parador de Turisme d'Aiguablava was built in the second half of the 20th century on the Punta des Mut at the top of the cove, opening in 1966 and renovated in 2020.

The name Aiguablava means "blue water" in Catalan, matching the sea's colour in the cove. The beach appears in the 1860 gazetteer as belonging to the parish of Esclanyà, now part of Begur. The GR 92 long-distance path crosses the sand, linking Fornells to the north with Tamariu to the south.

The cove has showers, toilets, and a parking area nearby, though the parking fills up early on summer days and it is better to arrive in the morning. A diving center on-site rents equipment for those who want to explore underwater.

A Parador, part of Spain's state-run hotel network, sits on the hillside directly above the cove and offers a view down onto the bay from above. This angle reveals the shape of the cove and the color changes in the water in a way that is not visible from the beach itself.
