Calella de Palafrugell, Coastal fishing village on Costa Brava, Spain

The whitewashed buildings and arched porticoes of Port Bo stand against the Mediterranean Sea, creating a network of narrow streets and small squares.

The village expanded from its original 16th-century fishing settlement through the cork production period into a modern resort while preserving its maritime heritage.

The Cap Roig Festival brings international music performances to the botanical gardens between July and August, enriching the local entertainment calendar.

The Cami de Ronda coastal path connects multiple small coves and beaches through cliffs and tunnels, offering access to various swimming locations.

The traditional Es Niu dish, created during Lent without meat, represents the local culinary identity and remains available in several restaurants.
