Platja de la Barraca

Platja de la Barraca, also known as Cala del Portitxol, is a secluded pebble beach near Jávea on the Costa Blanca, sheltered by the dramatic Cap Negre headland and the small Illa de Portitxol just offshore. You drop anchor here and swim in, enjoying a genuinely quiet spot that stays open year-round and rarely gets the crowds of nearby beaches. The rugged Mediterranean scrubland backdrop and clear turquoise water make it one of the more scenic anchorages along this stretch of coast.
