The Costa Brava, with its impressive coastline that stretches along the northeast coast of the Iberian Peninsula, is a dream destination for lovers of the sea and nature.

The magic of the secret coves<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The secret coves of the Costa Brava are like hidden treasures, waiting to be discovered by the most intrepid travelers. These small and picturesque inlets offer a different experience to the more crowded beaches.

CALA JUGADORA<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cala Jugadora is one of those places where geology is perhaps the feature that stands out the most from the landscape, perhaps above the beauty of the vegetation. It is located in the easternmost part of Cap de Creus, at a southern end that protects it from the strong north wind, the Tramuntana, which often blows in the Alt Empord\u00e0. It is an authentic underwater jewel highly appreciated by divers, since it inhabits an important colony of Posidonias in the form of a forest. The simple practice of snorkeling will provide great moments of enjoyment for the visitor, so don’t forget to bring some goggles and a tube when you visit this beautiful corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CALA FUTADERA<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Of all the coves you will visit on the Costa Brava, this will possibly be your favourite, because it is difficult for nature to endow any other place with more beauty.
