Water sport and equipment rental

Cala Gració is ideal for swimming and snorkelling, thanks to its calm, shallow waters and abundant marine life. The beach is well-sheltered, meaning the sea is generally calm, making it a safe and fun spot for children and less experienced swimmers.

For those interested in water sports, Cala Gració offers opportunities for snorkelling and paddleboarding.

Family-friendly environment

Cala Gració is particularly popular with families thanks to its shallow waters and soft sandy shores. The beach is well-suited for children, as the sea is generally calm, and the gradual slope of the seabed allows for safe paddling and swimming.
