Platja dels Pinets or Platja de l’Arquitecte
Platja dels Pinets or de l'Arquitecte in L'Ampolla (Terres de l'Ebre) is a beach of fine golden sand mixed with small pebbles located next to L'Ampolla marina. Some 130 m long and 15 m wide, it slopes gently into the calm waters of the Mediterranean. Although it has almost no services, it is often very crowded.
Its location on the Gulf of Sant Jordi means it is very rich in molluscs, which explains the regular presence of fishermen. It is also close to the Port Flamingo residential estate and L'Ampolla marina with its 433 moorings. Opposite the houses of Port Flamingo is the small Els Pinets cove. The marina offers many activities, including sailing and diving courses for all levels.
Its proximity to El Fangar makes a popular area in which to fish for local species such as sea bream, sea bass, bluefish and sargo.
