Beach overall scores
Port De Joan (Girona) region (Costa Brava sub-region) is located outside the Colera 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 correct question is not how to get to Port De Joan, but what mode of transport can be used to get to it, because this part of the coast is inaccessible by land. The beach can only be reached by water and you have to rent a boat to get there.
User reviews
"This place is a hidden gem, but getting there is a bit of a struggle. You have to walk from Platja de Garbet, and you'd better hope the tide doesn't come in before you make it back! It's a real shame that a place like this is only accessible to those with private access, as it'd be much more enjoyable if there were better paths to get there."
Maria Ruiz
"This secluded beach is only accessible by foot and is a great spot for some peace and quiet. It's a shame that the Perelada family's snack bar isn't accessible by car, and that the patrol path requires a bit of rock-hopping. But the best part is that the beach is free to enter for the public."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?
Port De Joan (Girona) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Port De Joan (Girona) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Port De Joan for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
