Los pueblos más bonitos de la Costa Brava

Qué hacer en la Costa Brava, pueblos más bonitos

Una visita a la Costa Brava no está completa sin recorrer sus pueblos medievales. Subir al castillo de Begur para disfrutar de las vistas, perderse entre las callejuelas empedradas de Pals, enamorarse del encanto de Peratallada o revivir escenas de Ocho apellidos catalanes en Monells son experiencias imprescindibles en cualquier viaje a la Costa Brava. También hay otros pueblos medievales menos conocidos que merece la pena descubrir, como Cruïlles, Madremanya, Vulpellac, Púbol, La Pera o Palau-Sator.

Recorrer estas localidades es como viajar en el tiempo. Y la magia no acaba ahí: los pueblos de pescadores también forman parte de la esencia de la Costa Brava. Calella de Palafrugell y Llafranc desprenden autenticidad marinera; Cadaqués conquista con sus casas blancas y su vínculo con Salvador Dalí; y Tossa de Mar combina historia y mar gracias a su recinto amurallado con vistas al Mediterráneo.

Y si aún quieres más, te dejamos nuestra selección de los pueblos más bonitos de Girona y la Costa Brava.

The "Indiana de Begur" is born from our love for the Empordà. Its splendid landscape is tasted in sips of green and yellow contrasts, hypnotizing plains, blue and toasted capturing the coast.

Its people, its temperance, the natural warmth that they transmit and the products they make enrich the soul and the senses.

The gastronomic experience between vineyards, fields and boats is a collage of aromas and textures of an exquisite naturalness.

Our house Indiana dances to the rhythm of a piano of the last century with current lyrics. We want to be part of the incredible natural scenery, adding the comforts of the 21st century.

We believe that aroma, that just point of decadence, leads us to locate ourselves in the heart of the Empordà, in the center of a seaside town full of glamor, in a colonial house that awaits its guests with the illusion of sharing and offering them the maximum quality.

That is why we project a business that we are passionate about. At first we captured the environment and we ended up drawing a style of understanding life, to share it with you as hosts.

Our house is located in the center of Begur: near the Church, the Town Hall, surrounded by picturesque little shops, terraces and small charming restaurants.

From our terrace Chill-Out we have the best views of the Castle of Begur, which rises above the village whitewashed and mottled Mediterranean colors, wrapped in pine forests and holm oaks. Begur is surrounded by coves that range from emerald to turquoise, seen from small fishing villages, rocks and sand.

Los mejores restaurantes de la Costa Brava

Qué hacer en la Costa Brava, restaurantes

Un recorrido por la Costa Brava también puede ser un viaje gastronómico, una manera de descubrir la región a través de sus sabores y productos locales. Las míticas anchoas de l’Escala, el suquet de peix, los arroces marineros, los vinos de la DO Empordà o el aceite de oliva virgen extra son solo una muestra de lo que te espera en la mesa. La mejor forma de disfrutarlos es acercándose a restaurantes locales, tabernas tradicionales o incluso a hoteles con restaurantes gastronómicos que apuestan por propuestas culinarias enraizadas en el territorio.

La experiencia se completa al visitar cooperativas, mercados y bodegas, donde es posible observar cómo se elaboran estos productos, degustarlos y conversar con quienes los crean. Las rutas del vino de la DO Empordà y las visitas a cavas familiares revelan la tradición vitivinícola de la zona, mientras que en los pueblos costeros, de L’Escala a Llafranc, pequeños restaurantes y talleres culinarios mantienen viva la cocina marinera y de interior. Incluso hay propuestas innovadoras, como Mooma, que combina el restaurante con la producción de manzanas de Girona y sidra artesanal.
