Playas fósiles sumergidas en la Costa Brava Meridional (Girona)

This paper describes petrologic and morphologic characteristics of fossil beaches submerged in the sector of the Costa Brava located between the Pals Beach and Blanes (Girona). These submerged beaches are composed of large-grain sandstone andconglomerate platforms, situated at a depth between 0.5 and 2.5 meters. These platforms are slightly inclinated towards the open sea. These deposits have been formed very recently, and date from Holocene, as noted by the presence of fragments of roman ceramics inside sandstone

Se describen las características petrológicas y morfológicas de playas fósiles sumergidas en el sector de la Costa Brava comprendido entre la Playa de Pals y Blanes (Girona). Se trata de plataformas de areniscas de grano grueso y conglomerados, situadas a una profundidad de entre 0,5 y 2,5 m y dispuestas ligeramente inclinadas hacia el mar abierto. Son depósitos muy recientes, datados del Holoceno por la presencia de fragmentos de cerámica romana en su interior
