Platja del Forat

Platja del Forat

Platja del Forat stretches along the Catalan Mediterranean coast in Spain, in the Girona region. Located immediately near Paulilles—only 400 meters to the south—and Bernardi Beach, 700 meters away, this beach is part of a string of small coves dotting the rocky coastline of Cap de Creus. The shore, characterized by spectacular geological formations, is part of a rugged coastal landscape where limestone cliffs alternate with small sheltered bays. The beach itself is distinguished by its intimate character, much less frequented than its immediate neighbors. Backed by steep rocky walls, it offers a preserved cove ambiance, far from standardized tourist facilities. Access remains relatively direct from the coastal paths connecting the various beaches in the area, although the absence of dedicated road infrastructure keeps the site away from mass swimmer flows. No official facilities are present on site: no toilets, no showers, no lifeguard station. Access is not adapted for people with reduced mobility. The beach does not fly the Blue Flag label. This configuration makes it a destination for coastal hikers and explorers of the Catalan coastal paths rather than for swimmers seeking comfort.
