Simply amazing. A beautiful house in a perfect location with the house itself as if Dalí left only yesterday. Good value too. A must.

Don’t miss this place! Make sure to take the hike down towards the water. Very cool volcanic rocks to see! Leave a rock cairn before you go!

Cadaqués is a lovely village with narrow cobblestone streets and a lovely church with very beautiful ornaments. Dali used to visit here a lot, a many other artists. It is not far from Port Lligat where we visited The residence of Dali.

You definitely need good shoes ours was a family pilgrimage to honour my father in law who lived in L’Escala for the last 40 years. Castle d Montgrí is an iconic landmark seen from miles around . We climbed on a beautiful January day blue skies and sunshine, without my sons help I would not have made it it’s a steep rocky climb and coming down I turned my ankle a bit still sore now .However young families hikers and people older than me were up the top too very pleased to have achieved it amazing views don’t do the battlements if you suffer from vertigo though just love the Costa Brava Catalan xxx

We did this on the morning of our free day in Roses. It was two hours very well spent and gave us an appetite for lunch. You cannot physically miss the citadel as its has an almost complete surrounding wall and is on the main road into the modern town. Entrance is a very reasonable 4 Euros with reduction for seniors. First you get a small well set out museum detailing the various phases of occupation and then you go out into the old settlement. The laminated guide sheet, which is available in several languages, is clear and informative and you can easily self guide to get insights into how the first town developed. Interesting and instructive.

Right on the border between Spain and France is an unassuming yet moving memorial to the heartbreak of exile. We read it, walked it - you walk down steps to a glass wall that gives you a view of what "flee-ers" would have seen and then visited the cemetery - wide open to all - nearby.
10. Village Medieval de Pals

Its a very beautiful small medieval town. Very enjoyable to ramble around, plenty of small shops selling souvenirs, wine, clothes etc. There is also a few bars and restaurants.
