The beach
Platja d'en Patet is a small swimming area protected from the waves very close to Cala Viola. The beginning of the Camí de Cavalls in this area is on the same road to the Lighthouse, between the museum and the metal gate of access to the Lighthouse grounds. There is a post with a red sign indicating the ruins of an ancient Roman city
Notes
Small and beautiful hidden cove where there is an area shaded by reeds. It is divided into three areas, the most comfortable and sandy is the central one, with just 8 meters of coastline. A section must be accessed via Camí de Cavalls from the Far de Cavalleria road. Walking just about 15 minutes.
