Platja del Morer, Sand beach in Sant Pol de Mar, Spain
Description
Platja del Morer is a sandy beach along the Mediterranean coast featuring coarse golden sand and clear waters bordered by residential buildings. The shoreline extends roughly 270 meters and offers direct access to the sea from a wide waterfront area.

Between this beach and the nearby Roca Grossa outcrop lie remnants of a Roman wine production center that operated from the 1st to the 5th century. The ruins reflect the economic importance of this coastal region during ancient times.

The beach has wooden ramps for accessibility, showers, toilets, and lifeguard coverage during summer months. Parking is available across the main road, making it straightforward to reach the shoreline.
