Es Llaner Gros, Pebble beach in Cadaqués, Spain.
Es Llaner Gros is a pebble beach along the Costa Brava coastline split into two distinct sections. The shoreline features a mix of stones and coarse sand that characterizes this stretch of Mediterranean coast.
The beach became connected to early 20th century artistic circles when notable visitors from the literary and artistic world spent time there. This link to the creative community left a lasting mark on the location's local significance.
The beach served as inspiration for local artists and remains a gathering place for both residents and visitors. Small traditional fishing boats regularly anchor nearby, connecting the shore to the area's working maritime heritage.
The beach sits roughly a kilometer from central Cadaqués and offers nearby parking. A bar operates along the shore to serve visitors throughout the day.
A stone tower from the 20th century stands opposite the water and overlooks the beach. The adjacent smaller cove holds fishing boats that give the area a working character beyond the main shore.
