Cala Roca Grossa — Local services in Calella

An amazing beach just a short drive outside of Barcelona. The views from the top are incredible but be warned parking is very limited. The beach is located just a short climb (via a stair case) down from the parking area. If you are feeling hungry or thirsty there is a small restaurant on the beach that offers a good variety of options and obviously higher than normal prices given the location. But the food and drinks are good and worth it. To the left of the main beach area is another small beach more secluded from the first. It is a bit to access as you either need to climb over some rocks or wade through the water around them to access this area. This and the beach extension just to the left of this new one, are the full nudist beaches and are actively used by the young and old. It should also be noted that while the primary beach is not "nudist" it is extremely common to be topless for the majority of beach goers. Hence no photos from the beach...

The cafe on the beach is a lovely spot with cold drinks, hot drinks and snacks. They have 'Damm Limon' on tap too which we loved. The beach is fairly small but there are some rockpools to look in and snorkelling was really great around the various rock piles near the short. Really, great and interesting selection of fish. Careful of jelly fish! We nearly swam straight into a big barrel type jellyfish quite near the shore. Excellent experience though and loved...

Very pretty place. The water was clean and the setting its just magical.I wish there were less people, i was there on a Monday, it was surprisingly busy. The day i visited the beach was full of kids and teenagers, it was very loud, maybe fun for most, but I found the beach next to this one way more peaceful. So its easy to move from one to another and decide what is a better fit, bare in mind the one the other side is a...
