Barcelona / Costa Brava: Quintessential Cataluña
Cadaqués, Figueres, and Barcelona, Tour Days 7 & 8
Where the majestic Pyrenees finally meet the Mediterranean Sea lies the Cabo de Creus, a cape forming the easternmost part of Spain. At the edge of the cape is Cadaqués, where we’ll spend our final two days. The quiet fishing village, made famous by Buñuel, Dalí, García Lorca and Picasso, is now a charming seaside resort. Rural trails lead from Cadaqués to the neighborhood of Portlligat where Dalí lived and worked for many years, and along the coast we’ll be offered sweeping views of cliffs, bays and coves. On the way back to Barcelona we’ll visit the Dalí Museum in Figueres, an eccentric building housing the unconventional master’s art.
Accommodations & Meal Highlights
This stunning hotel is nestled into the peaceful surroundings of its own park, just a ten-minute walk from the center of Cadaqués with its busy cafés, whitewashed houses and pebble beaches. We will enjoy our farewell dinner in a seaside restaurant specializing in fresh fish and seafood.
