Sant Antoni de Calonge combines diverse coastal experiences with distinctive towers, a signposted path and lively traditions. For you as a family or travel group, this mix may influence your choice of holiday apartment: Would you rather spend your holiday on a fine sandy beach, along a coastal path, enjoying water sports or around special cultural events? Beaches, the path, water sports and cultural events each offer a different focus.

Holiday apartment in Sant Antoni de Calonge between three beaches

Platja de Sant Antoni is around 1.5 kilometres long and has fine sand. This makes it an extensive stretch of beach for days when the sea and sand are meant to be the main focus. Platja d'Es Monestri is located in the centre of Sant Antoni de Calonge. Its central location creates a different emphasis and is relevant when orienting yourself while choosing your personal holiday focus.

Platja Torre Valentina is around 500 metres long and consists mainly of fine sand. It is also possible to enjoy water sports there. The three beaches therefore differ in length, location and the water sports available at Platja Torre Valentina.

Camí de Ronda, towers and marked paths

The Camí de Ronda begins next to Torre Valentina and can also be reached via the seafront promenade of Sant Antoni de Calonge. As the GR-92, the path is signposted with white and red markings. These two features help you plan a stay involving walks and coastal orientation without associating the route with an unverified length or a specific amount of time required.

Torre dels Perpinyà stands on the Camí de Ronda opposite Cala de l'Embarcador. Despite its medieval appearance as a watchtower, it has a modern origin. Torre Valentina, in turn, is a defensive tower by the sea that has survived to this day. Along the coast, you will therefore encounter two towers with distinctly different characters: Torre dels Perpinyà presents a notable contrast between its appearance and origin, while Torre Valentina remains present as a preserved defensive tower by the sea.

Festa Major in the last days of August

The Festa Major de Sant Antoni de Calonge (Calonge) takes place in the last days of August. The Festa Major includes a correfoc and an audició de sardanes. This period can therefore provide a special cultural focus for your travel planning.

Underwater routes and personal holiday priorities

Registration for the underwater routes takes place at the Oficina de Turisme de Calonge i Sant Antoni. This specific registration location is important information for anyone wishing to include this activity in their stay. Together with the explicitly available water sports at Platja Torre Valentina, this creates a maritime theme, while the beaches, the Camí de Ronda and the towers appeal to other distinct interests.

When choosing accommodation, you can therefore first decide which of these facets should define your stay: fine sand at Platja de Sant Antoni or Platja Torre Valentina, the central location of Platja d'Es Monestri, a walk along the Camí de Ronda marked as the GR-92, the towers by the sea or the Festa Major in the last days of August. These specific differences make Sant Antoni de Calonge a destination where the right holiday apartment can be chosen primarily according to the holiday experience you want.
