Launch off a mega water slide into the crystal water of Almadrava Cove and spend an hour swimming under Cap de Creus’ wind-sculpted cliffs. This 90‑minute excursion blends a fast adrenaline rush with relaxed cove swimming and seaside views.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off from a low-tide swell and the boat hums toward a rocky notch where wind and waves have cut a private doorway into the Costa Brava. From the platform the mega slide angles like a dare — a short, fast ribbon that spits you into turquoise water below. The sea seems to welcome and test you at once, the current nudging swimmers toward the cove’s hidden sand pocket.

Wear water shoes
Rocks around the cove and boat ladders can be slippery—closed-toe water shoes protect feet and improve traction.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect your skin and the Posidonia beds by applying biodegradable sunscreen before entering the water.
Watch the Tramontana wind
Strong northerly winds can make boat transfers choppy; choose morning or late-afternoon departures for calmer seas.
Bring a small dry bag
Keep phones and keys dry during the slide and while swimming—boats offer limited secure storage.
