Baix Empordà, Mediterranean coastal region in Girona, Spain

The Baix Empordà region extends across 700 square kilometers of diverse terrain, from the Mediterranean coastline to inland medieval villages and mountain ranges.

The comarca was established during the 1936 territorial division of Catalonia, forming one of two parts from the historical region of Empordà.

La Bisbal d'Empordà maintains its position as a center for traditional pottery manufacturing, with numerous workshops and ceramic artisans throughout the town.

The region connects to major cities through road C-66 from Girona to Palafrugell, while the GI-660 and GI-664 roads provide access across the Gavarres mountains.

The Medes Islands marine reserve near Torroella de Montgrí contains protected coral formations and serves as a habitat for Mediterranean fish species.
