The origin of its name is because it was formerly a very good place for sardine fishing.

This cove is made of gravel and is about 200 meters long.

Access is via a nature walk from the Cruz del Portichol viewpoint. It can also be reached by boat.

Like almost all of Jávea's popular coves, it doesn't have a large parking lot. So if you're not one of the first, you may have to walk a long way.
