Early view of Catalan Bay looking south from the top of the access road - late nineteenth century. The round shaped rock which juts out into the sea is commonly known as la mamela (Catalan: la mamella, the breast), the name given to it by the early Catalan settlers as it resembles a woman's breast when viewed from the shore.
