We know many of you share your lives with dogs and want to enjoy leisure moments with them.
Finding spaces where pets are welcome isn’t always easy, but don’t worry! Today, we bring you some beaches on the Costa Brava where you can go with your four-legged companions:
Canine Zone at Els Griells Beach (L’Estartit)
This 600-square-meter section is designated for dogs. Its fine sand and natural scenery make it a perfect choice for families with pets. Located near the Medes Islands Nature Reserve, the beach offers spectacular views. Facilities include regular cleaning, trash bins, and lifeguard services during the high season. There are no time restrictions, so you can enjoy the beach with your pet all day long. It is open from June 1 to September 17.
Rec del Molí Beach (L’Escala)
This beach is situated between L’Escala and Sant Martí d’Empúries, in a tranquil area surrounded by pine trees. A 370-meter section is specifically designated for bathers with pets. Its fine golden sand and natural setting make it appealing, though the waters can be slightly murky, especially after rain. Nearby amenities include a beach bar and public restrooms, making it a convenient choice for a family day with your dog. It’s an ideal spot to combine a swim with a walk through a nearby forest.
La Conca Beach (Malgrat de Mar)
Located further south on the Costa Brava, this beach is notable for its width and good accessibility. Although not one of the most popular pet-friendly beaches, it offers a relaxed atmosphere and plenty of space for dogs to run and play freely. Nearby parking and basic services make it an easy destination. This is a great option for those wanting to explore beaches beyond the typical Costa Brava spots.
Els Griells Beach (L’Estartit)
In addition to its designated dog area, this beach stands out for its proximity to tourist services like restaurants, and leisure facilities. It’s an excellent choice for those looking to combine a beach experience with other activities in the area. The shallow waters are perfect for pets less experienced in swimming.
Rec del Molí Beach (L’Escala)
This beach is also well-regarded for activities like photography and wildlife observation, thanks to its natural surroundings. It’s particularly peaceful in the early morning, making it ideal for those seeking to avoid crowds.
We hope you have a fantastic day with your dogs, running and playing on the beach!
