Cadaqués, Coastal municipality in Alt Empordà, Spain.
The white buildings of Cadaqués stretch along a bay on the Cap de Creus peninsula, surrounded by rocky Mediterranean coastline and olive groves.
The medieval fishing settlement evolved from a protected harbor into a municipality that attracted numerous artists and intellectuals during the 20th century.
Salvador Dalí established his residence in nearby Port Lligat, transforming Cadaqués into a center for artistic creation in Catalonia.
The town connects to Barcelona through a winding two-hour drive, with local buses operating regular services from Figueres transportation hub.
Local women traditionally carried water in green-glazed earthenware jugs called 'doll,' balancing them on their heads through the narrow streets.
