The Montgó Bay

Coordinates: 42.1077740000, 3.1691700000 (map)

The cove of Montgó (Cala Montgó) stretches between two massive cliffs to the south of L'Escala. It is the only cove in the region fully covered from the cold winds of Tramuntana and is thus much beloved by weekend visitors in the off-season. The beach of Montgó is covered in fine white sand, a natural by-product of the hill erosion of the natural park of Montgrí.

Cala Montgó is an excellent starting point for two short trips: to the northeast towards the Montgó tower and a Civil War bunker or to the southeast towards the capes Punta del Milà and Punta Ventosa.
