Racou beach

Plage du Racou is a beautiful and quiet place near the center of Angela-sur-Mer. The nearest airport is located in Perpignan, 25 km away. There is a railway station. The Pyrenees very beautifully flow here into the sea. On the one hand, Raku is limited by a port, on the other - by rocks. Nice beach for a relaxing holiday with the whole family.

Beach description

In summer, on the sandy beach, where is a certain amount of small pebbles, a large number of people gather, because the village is very popular. In the off-season, tourists are almost absent. If you go through streams, then behind the pine trees you can find a completely secluded area. There is always a parking space if you arrive early in the morning.

In summer, all restaurants, bars and shops are open, security and lifeguards work. The water is clear and clean, except on days when a strong wind rises. Picturesque Mediterranean vegetation helps to hide from the sultry sun.

The local guide organizes an informative walk for a couple or family, introduces you to Catalan traditions and the most beautiful panoramas. Enjoy your walks among authentic coastal houses, specialties from local restaurants, bike and sailing tours.
