What is the best beach club in Pals?
Havana Beach Club is the only dedicated beach club on Platja de Pals. It's a casual spot: sunbeds on the sand, a full bar, and a Mediterranean restaurant serving everything from breakfast through to dinner. The location is genuinely the main draw.
It's part of the La Costa resort, which gives it better parking and infrastructure than most standalone beach bars. Reviews are polarised, with the setting praised consistently and the food drawing more criticism. The simpler dishes — rice, paella, burgers — tend to come out better than the more ambitious plates.
Is Pals beach good for families?
Platja de Pals is one of the calmer family beaches on the Costa Brava. The sand is wide, the water is shallow, and the beach doesn't attract the party crowd. Havana Beach Club has a dedicated kids' area, high chairs, and a children's menu.
Parking is straightforward too: spend over €50 at the club and the Resort La Costa car park is free. The club has wheelchair accessible entrance and parking.
How much do beach clubs in Pals cost?
Havana Beach Club prices sit around €20-30 per person for food and drinks. Sunbeds on the sand are part of the beach area. Spend over €50 at the resort and parking at the adjacent La Costa hotel is free. For a beachfront spot on the Costa Brava, that's a fair mid-range price.
Do you need to book beach clubs in Pals in advance?
Reservations are accepted at Havana Beach Club. Outside peak summer weekends you can usually walk in. In July and August, booking ahead for lunch makes sense, as Platja de Pals fills up and table service gets stretched during the busiest periods.
When are beach clubs in Pals open?
Havana Beach Club opens seasonally, typically from spring through to autumn. It stays open until dusk during the peak summer months. The beach itself is accessible year-round, but sunbeds and table service only run in the warmer months. Check ahead, as the club has been listed as temporarily closed.
