Miami Platja: Coves, Nature and Water Sports

Coastline between coves and activities

At Platja Cristall, Miami Platja offers two clearly recognisable sides of the coastal experience: The beach is characterised by its length and lack of overcrowding. At the same time, you can go kayaking, paddleboarding and take part in other water sports there at Club de Mar. The length and lack of overcrowding at Platja Cristall stand alongside kayaking, paddleboarding and other water sports practised at Club de Mar, without any particular sequence being specified.

The Passeig de les Cales offers its own perspective on the coast. It runs along all the coves of Miami Platja, from Cala dels Àngels to Cala dels Penyals. The route provides a pleasant setting for walks by the sea, has free passage and offers wheelchair users a comfortable path. The continuous waterfront route, the individual coves and the walk at a different pace are presented as separate route features.

Nature and routes

L’Estany Gelat occupies a special place in the landscape. The wetland is part of the Natura 2000 network and is one of the few wetlands on the Tarragona coast. L’Estany Gelat is home to the Spanish toothcarp, a small endemic fish threatened with extinction.

The routes around Miami Platja also take in different local landscapes. Route 6 goes on foot through the centre of Miami Platja and along its seafront; it also includes L’Estany Gelat. “En família per Miami Platja” is a family walk around Miami Platja. The different formats help you compare a specifically named circular walk with a route through the town centre and seafront, based on their different paths around Miami Platja.

Culture and gastronomy

The history by the water includes L’Estany Gelat beach, which contains a bunker from the Spanish Civil War. Miami Platja is also home to the Santa María Magdalena church, dating from 1964. The two points refer to different periods: the bunker points to the Spanish Civil War, while the church belongs to the more recent local history of 1964.

A culinary event brought Mont-roig and Miami Platja together: the “XVIII Jornades Gastronòmiques del Pop” took place in both towns. Participating restaurants offered dishes, menus or tapas featuring octopus.
