This cove is located to the northeast of the municipality, next to the CV-746 road. The cove of l'Andragó itself has a viewpoint from which you can enjoy a full view of the Mediterranean Sea, and just below the viewpoint we find the cove, a small rocky cove that has metal stairs to enter the water comfortably. An incredibly charming cove.

This cove is located 600 metres northeast of Cala de l'Andragó, and is a small sandy beach separated by a stretch of rock. At 300 metres from it is the beach of "l'Ampolla", the busiest beach in Moraira as it is located in the town centre. It is 250 metres long and 38 metres wide.
