Beaches and Coves Beaches

Segur de Calafell Beach (northern Costa Daurada) stretches along the resort’s seafront for 1,700 metres. It has fine golden sand and warm calm crystal-clear waters. The many services it offers make it very popular with visitors, especially families with children.

Its facilities include beachfront car parking with several spaces reserved for people with reduced mobility, accessible showers and toilets, sunbed and parasol hire, a lifeguard and first aid post, and numerous bars and restaurants along the seafront.

At one end of the beach, the marina offers a range of water sports. There are also facilities for playing other sports, as well as a children's recreation area.

During the summer, Calafell’s beaches offer exhibitions of the Bot Salvavides, an unsinkable lifeboat with a unique construction that makes its right itself when it capsizes. Restored in 1989, the Lifeboat is brought out every year on June 29, July 16, August 15 and September 11. The town’s beaches are also home to the Llaguts de Calafell and the Vogadors de Calafell, two associations that promote the practice of fixed seat rowing using the Catalan llagut or catboat. It is also home to the Patí Català Calafell Association that organises various cultural, sports and social activities.

Calafell is categorised by the Catalan Tourism Agency as a Family Tourism destination, a designation that distinguishes holiday resorts with a certified range of accommodation, restaurants and leisure establishments designed specifically with children in mind.
