Beach overall scores
Fonollera Beach (Girona) region (Costa Brava sub-region) is located outside the la Pletera 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 Fonollera Beach 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
"Mas Pinell has a lack of supervision, allowing individuals with dogs to disregard the regulations and cleanliness standards. Unfortunately, there are parts of the beach with questionable black sand, raising concerns about the safety of the area. With a bit more oversight, the area could be a paradise."
Nestor Ocampo
"The perfect spot for a getaway! The sand is thick and the water is so clean you can see right through it. We had a great time at the Siroco chiringuito, where the Italian chef served up some of the best pasta we've ever had. The squid and mussels were so fresh and tasty, it was hard to resist. Highly recommended!"
