Platja de ses Torretes, Blue Flag beach in Calonge i Sant Antoni, Spain.
Platja de ses Torretes is a Mediterranean beach in the Costa Brava region spanning roughly 190 meters along the shore with golden sand and clear water. The cove is framed by mountain slopes and offers facilities including showers, restrooms, lifeguard coverage, and parking zones.
The sources document Platja de ses Torretes only as a beach in the province of Girona, Catalonia, on Spain's eastern coast, about 600 km east of Madrid. No founding date, fishing-village past or 1960s tourism shift is recorded for this cove, so its history is not established in the available material.
The name Ses Torretes refers to the small watchtowers (torretes) that once stood on this stretch of the Calonge coast, part of a coastal lookout system. The beach lies in the municipality of Calonge, in the Baix Empordà comarca of Girona province, Catalonia, on Spain's eastern Mediterranean shore, about 600 km east of Madrid.
The beach is most accessible during warmer months when all facilities run smoothly and the cove welcomes swimmers. Arriving early on clear days helps secure parking and find good space along the sand.
The only source documenting this cove is a short Cebuano-language Wikipedia entry, which places it in the Province of Girona, Catalonia, about 600 km east of Madrid. It records no facilities, dimensions or history, so details circulating about showers, lifeguards or a fishing past are not supported by it.
