Cadaqués — Costa Brava, Spain
Swim off the beach and half a minute later you are over coves and rocky coast.
The hotel sits between two named beaches, Pere Fet and Ros, so there is a genuine choice of entry a few steps apart. What matters more is what happens once you are in: swim out from the sand and within about thirty seconds you are over rock and into a string of small coves along the shore. Several more are within a five-minute walk if the nearest spot is busy, but most days there is no reason to leave the water.
