Cala de la Ginesta, Sandy beach in Sitges, Spain
Cala de la Ginesta is a beach in Sitges on the Catalan coast with a sandy and pebble shoreline and a sloping seabed. The calm waters and sheltered setting make it a quiet place for swimming and wading.
The beach developed alongside Port Ginesta marina, which brought recreational use to this section of the Catalan coast. The growth of the harbor made the area more accessible to visitors seeking seaside activities.
The beach reflects the Mediterranean lifestyle of Sitges, where people swim and sunbathe while watching boats move in and out of the nearby marina.
The beach has showers, adapted toilet cabins, and waste bins available, with paid parking through the Port Ginesta facility. Visitor facilities operate seasonally, so check conditions before your visit.
The beach serves as a trailhead for excursions into Parc del Garraf, where visitors can hike through natural landscapes right after leaving the sand. This proximity makes it simple to enjoy both coastal and inland terrain on the same visit.
