💡 Tips
- Don't miss the Riuet de Coma-ruga, a small thermal stream where you can dip your feet in mineral-rich waters year-round.
- The beach here is very wide and shallow, making it well-suited for families with small children, but bring a parasol for shade.
- If you plan to visit the thermal waters, go early in the morning to enjoy a quieter, more relaxing experience.
- Look out for the Masia Blanca marine reserve if you enjoy snorkeling; it's a great spot to see local Mediterranean sea life.
