Smoke-free beach
The Fòrum bathing area can host the most common beach activities, such as sunbathing or swimming. However, it is important to remember that there is no sand and the water is reached by means of steps that descend directly from the paved area.
The Fòrum bathing area is 375 metres long and about 30 metres wide. It has been adapted for people with disabilities so that they can reach the water.
Compared to a typical beach, it is a rather unconventional bathing area and great care should be taken when approaching the water, using the designated bathing areas and taking part in associated activities. It is important to take note of the warning signs and notices and also any PA announcements, and it is forbidden to venture outside the safe areas marked with float lines.
It should be remembered that there is a colony of sea urchins in the area. To avoid injury bathers are advised to wear suitable footwear when swimming.
The Fòrum bathing area has a lifeguard post. The environmental information centre and public toilets are open from 1 June.
Area for people with disabilities
The Fòrum bathing area has a section set aside for disabled persons that includes a bathing support service. This service is intended for persons with disabilities and reduced mobility, and its purpose is to help them in and out of the water so they can enjoy bathing in the sea, using, if necessary, a hydraulic chair.
