Platja de Sant Lluís, Nude beach in Cadaqués, Spain.
Platja de Sant Lluís is a small pebble beach nestled in a rocky cove where the water remains calm due to natural rock protection. The surrounding cliffs and vegetation create a sheltered setting that feels separated from the nearby town.
Fishermen used this cove as a sheltered landing spot in ancient times, taking advantage of its natural protection. The remote location kept it largely unchanged until modern times when hiking paths made it more accessible.
The beach draws artists and photographers seeking natural light and rocky landscapes as subjects for their work. It serves as a gathering place for those who value undeveloped shorelines and the freedom of nature.
The beach is reached by hiking along a coastal path from Cadaqués, which takes around 45 minutes of walking time. Bring sturdy shoes and water, as there are no facilities or shade along the route.
Submerged rock formations beneath the water create natural pockets and shelters where Mediterranean fish congregate. These underwater features make the spot rewarding for snorkeling, even though they remain hidden from the surface.
