Palamós

The municipality of Palamós extends along the Mediterranean coast with several beaches and a commercial port at 12 meters above sea level.

The strategic location of Palamós on the Costa Brava made it a central point for Mediterranean maritime trade since its establishment in 1279.

The Museu de la Pesca preserves the maritime heritage of the region through exhibits displaying traditional fishing methods and local seafaring customs.

The municipality maintains direct connections with neighboring towns Calonge and Vall-llobrega through regional transportation networks and shared administrative services.

Palamós features the protected cove of S'Alguer, where traditional fishing huts line the rocky shoreline, creating a distinct Mediterranean coastal landscape.
