Beach overall scores
Cala Futadera (Girona) region (Costa Brava sub-region) is located outside the Urbanitzacio Giverola settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Cala Futadera with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"This 'hidden' spot on the Costa Brava is anything but a secret - it's packed with people and boats. The beach itself is ok, but the sheer number of vessels moored there is simply too much for the environment. If you can make it down the steep stairs to the beach, you'll be rewarded with a view of too many boats for your liking."
Julian C.
"This beach is a sight to behold, though accessing it can be a bit of a challenge. It requires traversing a steep set of stairs and wading through water, however the effort is well worth it. To ensure a hassle-free experience, it is best to arrive early and secure a parking spot along the roadside, as well as a spot on the beach."
