Cala Pola, Tossa de Mar

Beautiful views near the cove, the waves were too strong for swimming. The campsite is closed so there are no restaurants or bars, it’s best to bring you own food and drinks. Accessible by bus and a small hike down the mountain from Giverola resort.

The beautiful secluded beach is worth hiking to. I started by walking to the river bank in Tossa De Mar and followed the signs for camping can Marti and followed the dirt track into the wooded hills. The hike was a bit tricky and winded upwards in parts. I came to a section which you could either carry on upwards or my decision to take the dirt track heading downwards. Towards the bottom of this dirt track there was ongoing construction of log cabins and buildings etc being built and road to them almost complete. What was frustrating was that the route down to this beautiful beach was fenced off and therefore difficult to find an alternative safe path to bypass the fencing. I managed it with some trepidation and paddled in the clear blue beach water.
