Palafrugell, Mediterranean coastal municipality in Baix Empordà, Spain.
Palafrugell extends across inland and coastal areas, including the towns of Llafranc, Calella de Palafrugell, and Tamariu along the Mediterranean shoreline.
The settlement originated from a Germanic fortress in the 5th century and developed into a medieval town with defensive walls against pirate attacks.
The Cork Museum in Can Mario and Josep Pla Foundation preserve the industrial heritage and literary contributions of this Catalan municipality.
The central bus station provides regular connections to Barcelona, Girona, and other Costa Brava destinations throughout the year.
The municipality maintains three distinct Blue Flag beaches connected by the Cami de Ronda coastal path through cliffs and tunnels.
