There’s something so uplifting about a coastal walk in the sunshine with a good friend. There is an easy, beautifully maintained path from the pretty coastal town of S’Agaro to Sa Conca, one of the most gorgeous beaches in this area of the Costa Brava. S’Agaro has some lovely restaurants, such as La Taverna del Mar, located right on the beach. It’s a little pricey, but the food is great, and the inside decor is really pretty even if the weather isn’t ideal. Also, a little further down the beach, on the other side of the road, you’ll eat well at Villa Mas. Villa Mas has a fabulous big terrace, but I think prices are similar to Taverna del Mar.

But let’s get back to the walk.

The path to Sa Conca can get a little busy at times (although never crazy stupid annoying busy, I promise!), but it’s smooth and easy to navigate, and the views are stunning. And there’s BOUGAINVILLEA (I’m obsessed with bougainvillea!) so it’s a no brainer if you want sea air without having to worry about twisting your ankles, or losing your balance on rough terrain. And you definitely won’t get lost!! It’s wide enough to walk side by side and chat, and you don’t need to watch where you put your feet, which is always a big plus in my book. It’s great for families with young children, too.

So, if you’re ever in the area, and fancy an easy but beautiful walk, this is definitely one to check out. I think it’s about 5,5 kms from S’Agaro to Sa Conca and back. And Sa Conca is magical… I went swimming there with a friend on New Year’s Eve last year (2022), but having had Covid a few weeks ago I’ve not yet felt brave enough to dive in. Maybe in February, when we return?

**Sa Conca in early summer, also beautiful!**

**Proof of winter courage! New Year’s Eve, 2022. And I promise we went in all the way!**

Happy New Year!!!
