Beach overall scores
Fonda Beach (Girona) region (Costa Brava sub-region) is located outside the Fornells 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, 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 secluded beach is the perfect spot to enjoy a peaceful morning. The crystal-clear waters make it ideal for a refreshing swim, and the nearby Cala is a great place for a private dip. Parking can be tricky, but there are some options close by, and the best part is that entry is free and open to the public."
Adriano Ponce
"From Dodo parking, it's only a few steps down to the beach, where you'll find small, dark stones that get hot in the sun. The water is crystal clear and blue, with plenty of fish to see when you go snorkeling. Best of all, entry to the beach is free to the public."
