La Rubina, Sand beach in Castelló d'Empúries, Spain
La Rubina is a sand beach along the Costa Brava with fine golden sand bordered by natural dunes and native coastal plants. The shore gently slopes to the water and is framed by vegetation that shields the beach from the surrounding landscape.
The beach sits within a natural reserve established in the 1980s to protect the coastal wetlands and their habitats. This protection has shaped how the area developed and allowed nature to thrive here.
The beach serves as a gathering place where visitors and locals enjoy the natural shoreline in a relaxed way. People come to experience the coastal landscape and spend time in an environment shaped by its ecology.
The beach has showers, toilets, lifeguard services, and nearby parking for convenient access. It helps to arrive early, especially on warm days, to find good space and avoid crowds during peak hours.
A section of the beach is reserved for dogs to swim and run freely, making it a rare option along the Costa Brava. This allows visitors with pets to enjoy the shore in their own way.
