The region around Playa de Pals, located in the heart of the Costa Brava, captivates with its scenic diversity and historical richness. Playa de Pals, named after the historic town of Pals, which is recognized as a World Heritage Site, stretches over an impressive 10 kilometers in length and 90 meters in width. The gently sloping sandy beach extends from the mouth of the Ter river to l’Estartit and offers ideal conditions for both beachgoers and water sports enthusiasts. Explore this beautiful region in Catalonia and enjoy a relaxing stay in a holiday home or apartment.
For diving enthusiasts, Playa de Pals is a true paradise. The nearby Medes Islands, a protected marine reserve, invite you to unforgettable dives amidst a vibrant underwater habitat. The variety of marine life and crystal-clear visibility make these islands one of the most fascinating diving spots in the Mediterranean.
Away from the beach, those seeking peace will find charming residential areas like Mas Pinell and La Pineda, nestled in shady pine groves, located about 50 to 1300 meters from the beach. Slightly higher up, on a hill around 2500 meters from the sea, lies Mas Tomasi. From here, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the expansive bay, the endless beach, and the surrounding pine forests. The detached holiday villas with spacious gardens offer a peaceful retreat full of tranquility and relaxation.
The region offers numerous recreational activities. Golf enthusiasts can play on two 18-hole golf courses: Golf Club Playa de Pals and Golf Club Serres de Pals. Additionally, tennis courts, mini-golf courses, and even a sports airfield for ultralight aircraft provide plenty of options for sports enthusiasts. All essential amenities, such as supermarkets, doctors, pharmacies, and excellent restaurants, are within easy reach.
The surroundings of Playa de Pals are characterized by charming small towns like Begur, Sa Riera, Sa Tuna, and Tamariu, which have preserved the authentic charm of old fishing villages. Narrow streets, white houses, and a calm atmosphere make these towns true gems of the Costa Brava. Majestic cliffs, hidden coves with crystal-clear waters, and dense pine and cork oak forests give the landscape a unique Mediterranean beauty.
Just a few kilometers inland, you’ll find lively villages with impressive medieval architecture. Pals, Peratallada, Palau-Sator, and Begur are rich in history and culture. Their mighty watchtowers, city walls, and castles tell stories of bygone times and invite you to delve into the historical depth of the region.
