LA TERRA DE DALÍ

Cadaqués and Cap de Creus

Cadaqués is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful towns in Catalonia, the postcard that every traveler has imagined at one time or another of a white and traditional fishing village. Cobbled streets that descend from the top of the village towards the sea, decorated with bougainvillea and full of charming corners.

From Cadaqués we find an eight km road that takes us to Cap de Creus. A place full of coves and cliffs with the constant presence of the tramontana. The seabeds of Cap de Creus are of great ecological richness and we find a variety of marine ecosystems. In 1998 it was declared a marine reserve.

The old policeman's house, together with the lighthouse, we find a bohemian restaurant where you can enjoy a meal and contemplate the beauty of the sunset.
