Platja de Sa Riera stands as Begur’s most expansive sandy beach, a welcoming canvas for all forms of coastal enjoyment. Its broad, golden sands provide ample room for sunbathers to spread out, for children to build intricate sandcastles, and for beach games to unfold. The gentle slope into the Mediterranean’s calm, blue waters makes it an ideal spot for swimming, offering a refreshing escape from the summer heat.

Beyond its generous size, Sa Riera boasts a vibrant, yet relaxed, atmosphere. A small cluster of traditional houses and a few inviting restaurants and cafes line the back of the beach, offering convenient amenities and delicious local fare. The scent of grilled fish often mingles with the salty air, enhancing the sensory experience of this lively bay. It’s a place where the local community and visitors blend seamlessly, enjoying the simple pleasures of beach life.
What truly sets Sa Riera apart is its strategic position as a gateway to further exploration. From here, you can easily embark on coastal walks along the 'Camí de Ronda,' discovering smaller, more secluded coves and breathtaking viewpoints. Whether you’re seeking a full day of sun and relaxation or an active adventure along the rugged coastline, Platja de Sa Riera offers a dynamic and fulfilling Costa Brava experience.
