Cala del Pi, Cala Sa Cova and Cala Rovira are located very close to Hotel Platja d’Aro
Platja d’Aro is one of the tourist epicentres of the Costa Brava. And it’s no coincidence. Everything it offers to guarantee fun and quality weekend getaways or the longed-for holidays have turned this town into a real magnet for visitors.
The beaches are one of its main attributes. There are some for all tastes: rocky, fine sand, endless, narrow, wide, tiny… This great diversity of options not only lets us find the one that best fits what we are looking for, but also opens up a wide range of possibilities for exploring the Costa Brava.
Which coves can we visit during our stay at Hotel Platja d’Aro?
The location of Hotel Platja d’Aro is sublime. Not only is it 5 minutes from the beach and 3 from the shopping hub, but it is also an insignificant distance (less than 10 minutes by car) from three coves with a great reputation: Cala del Pi, Cala Sa Cova and Cala Rovira.
Cala del Pi
As a curiosity, its name is due to the large number of pines found in the area. In particular, there are two very old ones. It is a small cove linked to the local fishermen. It is ideal for the little ones, as it is not deep and you can explore lots of rocks. Access is limited, because you have to go down quite a few stairs, but its clean, clear and crystalline water is well worth it.
Cala Rovira
The dimensions of Cala Rovira are so large that it looks more like a beach than a cove. The sand is coarse, the entry to the water has quite a steep slope and its surroundings have great tourist appeal. The rocky areas that border the beach add great aesthetic value. It is worth mentioning that Cala Rovira has been awarded a blue flag.
Cala Sa Cova
Vegetation surrounds Cala Sa Cova, which lies beneath a cliff. It is reached via the coastal path that starts at Cala Rovira. It is a smaller, sheltered cove. It is known for being the place where the fishermen of l’Escala left their boats while carrying out their trading operations. Now, it is a charming cove to spend a family day.
