Cala Sa Cova, Sand beach in Castell d'Aro, Spain
Cala Sa Cova is a small sand beach in Castell d'Aro sheltered by steep limestone cliffs that form a protected cove opening to the sea. The shoreline sits nestled between rock formations dropping directly into the water, with pine forest reaching down to the water's edge.
The cove remained untouched by large-scale development over centuries, preserving its natural appearance to this day. This remote location allowed the beach to keep its original character while nearby coastal areas were transformed.
Local families gather at this beach during summer evenings to continue the tradition of small-scale fishing from the surrounding rocks.
Access is via a long staircase descending from the coastal path, so visitors should bring their own food and water. No facilities or services exist on site, making advance planning essential for a comfortable visit.
The beach receives natural shade in afternoons from the western cliffs, which can shelter much of the shoreline until late afternoon. This pattern makes it a welcome refuge during hot summer days when other nearby beaches remain fully exposed to the sun.
