Beaches and Coves PROTECTED NATURAL AREAS OF THE COAST

This PEIN (Plan for Areas of Natural Interest in Catalonia) coastal area is located between Punta de la Creueta, Punta de la Móra and the Tarragona-Barcelona railway line. The protected area
covers about 100 hectares of land and 300 hectares of the sea bed. Thanks to its relief it has not been excessively transformed by the actions of man, making it an area of exceptional botanical and ecological interest. Of particular importance are the Mediterranean coastal woodlands, home to a considerable diversity of land vertebrate species and other coastal
communities. The seabed also preserves posidonia (sea grass) meadows.
