is a beach located in front of the ruins of Empúries. It is 638 meters long and has a surface area of 14,394 m² of fine sand. It is bordered by two islets connected to the land by a sandy arm: to the north, Les Muscleres Grans, which borders the beach of Moll Grec, and to the south, Les Muscleres Petites, which borders the beach of Portitxol. The islets, with an abundance of mussels, give the beach a shell shape and constitute a protective breakwater on days with rough seas.
It was a town founded in 575 BC by the Greeks and later occupied by the Romans. Today the ruins of that town can be visited, as well as a museum.
