Cala de la Lombriz

Cala de la Lombriz is a sandy and pebbly beach along the Mediterranean coast in Torre de la Horadada. The shore is framed by steep rocky cliffs that create several small sheltered coves.

The area has been occupied since ancient times and was developed economically during the Roman period. Stone extraction from the cliffs supplied building materials for the region's construction needs.

The name comes from the shape of rock formations nearby, and local fishermen remain visible working along the shore throughout the day. This connection between the community and the sea shapes how people use and value this space.

The beach is reachable on foot from Torre de la Horadada and has limited parking in the nearby area. Mornings and early afternoons offer the calmest conditions and smallest crowds.

At low tide, natural rock pools form between the cliffs creating small contained swimming areas. These shallow pools warm up in the sun and remain calm, making them different from the open water beyond.
