Cala s’Alguer, located in the village of Palamós, in the middle of the Costa Brava, is a cove that still seems from another time. Nothing has changed there in recent years. The transparent and crystalline underwater, the traditional fishermen houses and the wood in the surroundings give it a great charm.

These features of purity make of Cala s’Alguer one of the most pristine beaches in the Costa Brava. It is very quiet, not too crowded usually, not even in summer. One explanation of this comes from the fact that you can not access it completely by vehicle. From the car parking to the creek itself you’ll walk through a short wood about 200 meters. In Cala s’Alguer, as in many other places on the Costa Brava, both the green pines as the granite rocks reach the same level of the sea, showing a picture of incomparable beauty.
