Cala Cativa
Cala Cativa is a very small natural beach in El Port de la Selva, on the Costa Brava, in the Cap de Creus peninsula. It is located between Cala Tamariua and Cala Fornells, within the Cap de Creus Natural Park. The beach is oriented to the north. Its dimensions are very small: 6 meters long and 9.5 meters wide. It is made up of pebbles. Access is on foot via the camí de ronda from Cala Tamariua. Nearby landmarks include Platja de El Pas at 1.3 km, Cala Galera at 2.2 km, Cala Talabre at 2.5 km, and Platja del Racó del Bell Fons at 4.1 km. For today, this spot should be considered as a tiny cove accessible on foot in the Cap de Creus, with very little space available.
