    Tips

    Cala Chica is easy to reach via a path that branches off from the hiking trail at the top a little away from the coast and leads down to the bay. To reach the next cove to the west, Cala Grande, you would have to walk way back to the driveway to Playa de Monsul, and choose paths down east from that track. Alternatively, there is sometimes the possibility (depending on the water level and waves) to continue hiking or wading directly below or along the steep rocky coast on a very narrow strip of sand - just on the section of the path outlined here.

        Secluded cove surrounded by volcanic walls of great beauty and verticality. A place to get lost and enjoy nature, unusual places, virgin spaces. Nudism is practiced. It is accessed on foot from the Genoveses cove through a path that runs along one of the most interesting stretches of our coastline. It is advisable to bring water, good shoes, a camera, etc. Despite the walk, it is worth the excursion. Be respectful of the environment and be careful with the waves.
