In addition, there is good cruising locally.
Sant Carles is located well inside the Badia dels Alfacs, a sort of large lagoon formed by the River Ebro Delta. Inside the depths shallow, but there are scores of opportunities for anchoring. Located 2nm from the open sea is Puerto de Los Alfacs a large harbour with both commercial traffic and a very large fishing fleet.
