More information
Sheltered between two small breakwaters that, when needed, give its waters extra calm, Platja de l’Alguer offers every kind of service, which makes it a beach much appreciated for family tourism, as its high occupancy in high season shows. The port breakwater, which starts on this very beach, is one of the anglers’ favourite spots for casting a line.
Platja de l’Alguer, between 120 metres long and 25 wide, is reached by a flight of steps that leaves you at the beach. There are also ramps for people with reduced mobility. Its sand is fine and golden and the entry into the water is by a gentle, gradual slope that parents with young children appreciate.
As an urban beach right in front of the centre of L’Ametlla de Mar, Platja de l’Alguer has a wide choice of bars and restaurants serving the best of the excellent local cuisine. It also has showers and toilets, as well as a lifeguard post and nearby parking.
Another notable feature of Platja de l’Alguer is that a beautiful coastal path (camí de ronda) starts from the beach, linking all the coves to the east of L’Ametlla de Mar, such as Pixavaques, Ambrosio or l’Estany Tort, among others. Platja de l’Alguer is reached by the A-7 motorway (exit 39 for L’Ametlla de Mar) and the N-340 road. By train, on the Tarragona - Tortosa line, at L’Ametlla de Mar station. Also by intercity bus.
