Beach overall scores
Platja Cala Murtra (Girona) region (Costa Brava sub-region) is located outside the Cala Montjoi Holiday Village 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 location was a bit of a trek to get to, but it was worth it for the clear waters and abundance of fish. Unfortunately, it was not disclosed that it was a nudist beach and we were disappointed to find out after a 30 minute hike from the parking spot. There was no sand - just rocks - so make sure to bring a chair."
Annelise Linke
"Despite having to spend 10 or 15 minutes going downhill on a dirt, narrow, and uneven track, it's worth it for the spectacular, quiet, and secluded inlet. Even in high season, the beach is deserted, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a tranquil getaway."
